Version 2.5.1
"Arrgghhh!!!!!" The agony of shame haunts even my dreams. Flashes of recoilless rifle rounds keep exploding in my mind. They etch into my brain the face of the architect of my downfall -- RJ!
The thief had stole my glory once again. For years, I had searched for my signature attack -- from the burning desserts of the Arizona to the bitterly cold tundra of Alaska. Only when I came upon an ancient master in the Canadian forests did I find what I was searching for.
That day in battle was the perfect time to finally expose myself to the world. My wheels had been destroyed and yet I lived. I had been rammed, shot and burned, and yet I lived. No one could destroy me. The remains of my victims lay beside my chariot. The time had come for me to gain my glory.
But just as I was readying myself, RJ dared to use my signature attack. With his vehicle disabled, RJ leaped from his vehicle and implemented the attack. Its sheer power nearly destroyed RJ's opponent. In desperation, his opponent kamikazed and ended the threat of RJ. However, the damage was done; the world would now acknowledge only RJ as the author of the attack.
Insanity gripped me. I leaped from my safe haven and charged the nearest vehicle. If I was doomed to a life of anonymity, then at least I would have the satisfaction of employing the attack at least once. But fate was cruel to me once again. My opponent merely laughed and fired his recoilless rifle; and so, my life slipped away. Only my bloody remains were exposed to the world.
But just morning breath returns, so too have I returned! My never-ending thirst for vengeance shall be sated! No one will stand in my way! RJ, I will get my pound of flesh... Bwahhahaaaaahhahahaaa...(cough, cough)
Strangely enough, RJ did not win this time. JH, the one who killed RJ, did. He flexed his muscles and four of his fellow players fell: MS, KW, BG and RJ. Only the actions of RJ prevented JH from completely dominating the arena.

Every vehicle was both maneuver and firepower killed. Of the eight players, only BG survived until the end.
After his car was taken out, RJ jumped out of his car and hopped onto JH's roof. Then, RJ proceeded to chop at JH's roof with his trusty hatchet. Unfortunately for JH, he allocated only a few points of armour on his top. JH attempted to shake RJ off, but to no avail. In order to prevent RJ from scoring any more points, JH forced his car roll, thereby crushing RJ and himself.
Despite many attempts on Bruce's life, no one was able to him while in his trike. Only when he jumped out of his trike and charged DA with an axe did Bruce get into trouble. DA was not impressed and finished Bruce off with his recoilless rifle.
BG was the only survivor. After his pickup was taken out mid-way through the battle, he waited inside until the crowd thinned out. He then scavenged a HAVR left lying on the field and took out DA who was still in his crippled car. Thus, the duel was ended.
The battle was ended after 27 seconds. Everyone enjoyed the carnage. Everyone was "killed". Zaniness ruled.
