FIGHT TO THE STRATEGY: Ozymandias vs The Stranger
« on: July 24, 2010, 12:34:52 am »

Hey guys, I'm sure most of you know about the other thread, found here.
Well this is the same, but instead of a test of might, this will be a test of mind.

Characters will battle each other using the best of their wits.
Unlike the other FIGHT TO THE DEATH!, these characters will have access to whatever troops/armament/whatever they would have normally, to a reasonable degree.
That is, a general will have some of his best soldiers, but not a full army.

The rules for submission, lifted almost entirely from the other thread:
  • The character may NOT originate from these forums, a Bay12 game, or the submitter.
  • For a submission to be accepted, it must contain a link to reasonably detailed information on that character.
  • If there are multiple versions of a character, one must be specified at the time of submission.
  • The judge reserves the right to veto any character due to reasons of personal bias.
  • Reasonable levels of mental power please.
These rules are subject to change at any time.

How about John Chriton

His entire group had become masters of what TV tropes calls Xanatos Speed Chess (links are way too dangerous)

You really can both sig it.
But... That would break the laws of sigging! We can't have everyone running around with the same quotes. IT MAKES THEM UNFUNNY FASTER!

CREEEEEEED!

Anyway, I'll take all three.
I was actually thinking about linking to Xanatos [insert x here] articles, but decided it was a bad idea.

Unfortunately, as cool as Einstein is, I don't think he would qualify as a strategic master.

If Terezi qualifies, I suggest her. Also, Armok, you have to include a link to a reasonably detailed page for the character.

I don't really care if Einstein is not a strategic master, HE IS CLEVER.
