SC Arena Competition Over! Results on page 9

I'm running Dominions on Windows XP.

I had buggy battles even in SP.

I'm running Windows XP Professional... upon viewing the battle I win, yet results shows both of us were killed.

What happens when you watch my arena battle?

[Potatoman]

In my replay of this battle (#10), the Erinya dances around the Poison Golem, and they exchange blows for about 6-7 rounds. The Golem manages to get off a Quicken Self spell while the Erinya chases a distant Imp, but she quickly returns and manages to slay it. The Erinya finishes the match with no damage (although it was forced to regenerate some damage) and 48 fatigue.

So it appears that our replays are markedly different, which is bad news for any re-start that might have been in the works.

The battle was #3 for my system.

From my experience battle results and battle views are rarely different. I'm sure many of us would like to see another arena battle... I have a new and different SC if you decide to host another.

In my version, the erinya never actually won a battle. Which was a shame, since it was my build...

I designed it against other fighter builds- darkness helps take out most non-undead and demons, and flambeau helps it against the demons and undead

My bad. I was not looking at the most current game (the first incarnation of the game was missing QM's entrant, so I had to re-run it.)

Yes, I'm seeing the bad results now as well, exactly as NTJedi described them! Round 3, Golem vs Rudra the Golem definately appears to win, but is erroneously counted as slain. That's good news, actually, because it means that if I re-run the contest it ought to work right rather than appearing right only on my machine.

Is anyone opposed to another, final arena tournament? Or has interest in this contest been exhausted?

Not at all, I'd actually like to see another run of it. Not that my SC will do much better . But I think it would be cool to see some other match-ups.

I'm ready for a new tournament... preferably the 5 magic path limit, but either way is good!
