ancient stegadon vs. Gor-rok
The Prince struck first, while the slow-witted Saurus prepared his defense. Three blows hit, and in a feat of brutal accuracy, the Prince drove his sword, first into the gut of the Saurus, then into the neck, finishing the Oldblood where he stood. (The Prince managed to roll two killing blows, which was followed by the Oldblood failing both of his wards.)
Winner: Gor-rok
Eternity_Warden vs. Xlcontiqu
The Assassin stuck first, scoring five hits, but with only one wounding, leaving the Tomb King to strike back at the near defenseless assassin. The Tomb King, obviously still groggy from his return to life, managed to inflict only one wound on the assassin, despite hitting with three attack. His Spear of Antarak allowed him to gain back the wound that was inflicted in the previous turn. The Assassin attacked back with renewed vigor, his blade driving deep into the skull of the undead king, slaying him outright. (The Tomb King rolled two ones for his return attack, failing to kill the assassin, and the assassin finally rolled up his Killing Blow and slew the Tomb King.
Winner: Xlcontiqu
Chahlie vs. Yzan
The Warboss attacked first, his magical sword granting him five additional attacks! He put out five wounds on the Dwarf Lord, but the heavily-armoured Dwarf shrugged them all off. The return attacks of the Dwarf scored three hits, and with the great weapon negating the Warlord's armour save, the Dwarf put two wounds on the Orc. The Warboss, on his last wound, lashed out again, his sword causing three hits, but the two wounds were saved by the thick armour of the Dwarf. The Dwarfs return attacks caused two hit, both of which wounded, killing the Warboss. (The Dwarf Lord has a good streak of luck this game, his armour and ward saved stopping all of the Warboss' six wounds against him. He was lucky in his to hit rolls also, needing 5+s and still getting three hits in the first turn.)
Winner: Chahlie.
Strewart vs. Sir Zantos
The Oldblood's magical sword left at the Goblin scoring five hits and dealing out three wounds. The sneaky Goblin's armour began to resemble the Oldblood's and he saved two of the wounds. The Warboss struck back, dealing one wound, which snuck by the Oldblood's armour. The Oldblood struck back, but the Goblin revealed even more trickery, and one of the Oldblood's swings hit him, thought it was stopped by his armout. The Oldblood causes two wounds, both saved by the hardy Goblin's armour. The Warboss failed his fear test and hit with only one of his attacks, which wounded and was not saved by the Oldblood's armour. The Oldblood, on his last wound, struck back, wounding the Goblin three times, and two of the wounds bypassed the armour, killing the grinning Goblin Warboss. (The Oldblood got a little lucky with the Warboss failing his fear test and his 3+ armour save in the last round. Other than that, it looked like the Goblin was going to come out triumphant.)
Winner: Sir Zantos
Craken vs. Dreadgrass
The Gorebull used his Initiative potion and struck first, inflicting two wounds, both of which were saved by the Oldblood's armour. The Oldblood struck back, inflicting two wounds, both of which passed by the Gorebull's armour. The battle raged on for more time, neither side gaining an upper hand. Eventually, the Oldblood scored another wound, the the Groebull was not to be outdone, and put a wound on the Oldblood. Finally after six turns of fitting, the Oldblood took the last wound of the Gorebull, finishing the fight. (This was the longest fight, with both combatants failing to would each other for a long time. The Gorebull could just not penetrate the armour or the 5+ to hit.)
Winner: Craken
hellbreaker vs. novatomato
The Warlord quickly started the battle, failing to wound the oldblood, but the pox rat took up the slack, and bit off a wound. The Oldblood returned and inflicted two wounds onto the astonished Warlord, the magical hit being shrugged off. The Warlord failed his fear test, though still managed to put two wounds on the Oldblood, both of which were saved by his armour, with the wounds from the pox rat also being saved. The Oldblood struck back and took the final wound of the Warlord, the Warpstone armour, not protecting him enough. (The Warlord just could not get by the Oldblood's armour save, and the extra strength the Oldblood had helped him get by the Warlord's toughness and armour save.)
Winner: hellbreaker
