Duel

When you stand in the arena looking across to your opponent, it does not matter why you are here. Perhaps you are there to settle a dispute and defend your honour, or you are a criminal facing a harsh sentence at the hands of the kingdom’s greater warrior, or it simply comes down to a gladiatorial battle to entertain the gods. As you stand there with sword and shield in hand, it does not matter why you are there. It is time to fight.

Duel is the first of our Fragments line of mini-games from Broken Ruler Games. Using Fate/Fudge dice, both players take on the role of opposing warriors in a fight to the death. Each duel begins with a random arena, character traits, and other options determined by the dice before diving head first into combat. Roll your 4 dice at the start of each round to determine how many attacks, blocks, and complications are at your disposal as you use wits, skill, and sheer luck to stay alive for one more day. Use your results in the right combination to prevent harm and bring your opponent down. You can even call on the gods for a favour or survive without their aid and gain their favour. A quick-and-simple combat game that needs only 10-15 minutes of your time or perfect for playing a free-for-all marathon.
