“The remaining `MechWarriors are really gearing up to give us an excellent show,” Duncan Fischer exclaimed. “This is a hard business, but these men and women are consummate professionals. Sure, there may be some bad blood from time to time, but when tempers run hot I’ve always said the best place to settle it is in the arena; and this fight proves it.”

“Charles Boyington is delivering some punishing hits, but with his PPC gone he’s really at a disadvantage with both the Centurion and the Catapult working him over. Staying put was a wise move; and Ken Hachiman is going to have difficulty getting a clear shot if he gets too much closer. That Thunderbolt’s hurt, but it’s not out—if he gets in close, he could still win that matchup—but he’d have to put his back to Césaire to do it; and that’s not a gamble I’d personally take. And speaking of gambles, why risk QuikScell’s inferior shipping practices when Scarborough Manufacturers produces a wide range of multi-role hovertanks? Scarborough Manufacturers: We don’t build Vedettes.”
