	In the third and final match for today's title, Karthago, a Retiarius owned by Publius Porcius Licinius, faced Sudrenus, a Murmillo owned by Marcus Pompeius Caninus. Both men represented Ludus Veneta. As soon as the mappa fell, the Murmillo began pressing the fight on the Retiarius. The two men were well matched. Karthago was clearly a few inches taller than Sudrenus but ultimately that difference in size was not the winning edge in a closely contested match that had Sudrenus chasing Karthago all over the arena for a little more than ten minutes. The strain of the fight began to show on both fighters but the match ended shortly after Karthago began an offensive series. Karthago cast his net at the 12 minute mark and Sudrenus was able to evade both the net and the trident and landed several solid blows on Karthago ultimately taking him down. The crowd erupted into cheers as the judge loudly and clearly pronounced: "Sudrenus victor, Karthago mittatur!"

		+
		+	This is Titus Nautius Sura with a brief report from the Flavian Amphitheatre for the Munera Gladiatoria Intermural Series matches held earlier on this Neptunalia for 2766!
		+
		+	The sun shown brightly in a cloudless sky all afternoon. It was a fine summer day to honor Father Neptune. Before the first match at the amphitheater there was a short rite and offering for Neptune. The spectator turn out for the matches today was rather light but the fine weather gave the vendors a busy and profitable day.
		+
		+	The first match of the day was between Karthago, a Retiarius, owned by Publius Porcius Licinius from Ludus Veneta and Hannimal "The Animal", a Carthagenian Secutor, owned by Tiberius Vitellius Triarius from Ludus Albatus. From the beginning it was obvious Karthago had his opponent outclassed. He was quicker and more agile than Hannimal and his training proved to be superior. At four minutes nine seconds into the match, Karthago was able to snag Hannimal and keep him in his net long enough to land a strong thrust on his opponent but the secutor twisted at the last moment and nearly escaped. Nearly. Karthago's trident tore into Hannimal's right arm and he was unable to get free. Karthago was declared the winner while medics rushed to assist Hannimal and sent him off to the hospital. We received word about an hour ago from Ludus Albata that Hannimal was in fair condition following surgery. We wish him the best of luck with his recovery and look forward to seeing him compete in the near future.
		+
		+	The second match of the day pitted Phegeus the Thraecian, owned by Lucius Vitellius Triarius, against Sudrenus, a Murmillo owned by Marcus Pompeius Caninus. Both fighters represented Ludus Venetus. Physically very similar, these gladiatores also used very similar offensive fighting styles. Phegeus, a Thraex, spent most of the match lunging and maneuvering in a determined manner, perhaps with the intent to wear down his opponent. Sudrenus, the Murmillo, was light on his feet but firm and strong in his stance. The match almost ended just seconds after the mappa fell and the cry of "Pugnate!" was heard. Sudrenus moved very quickly and lunged toward Phegeus in an attempt to evade the bronze parmula and land at least one of his blades on Phegeus's upper back. But Phegeus managed to catch the right arm of Sudrenus, pushing him off-balance and deflecting the attack. The men then began a few minutes of sparring as Phegeus moved around looking for the right opportunity. Chants from the crowd in support of Phegeus could be heard. Then Phegeus spung with another quick attack but Sudrenus landed a solid blow on his opponent with his shield followed by a sweep of the blade. Phegeus went crashing to the sand and Sudrenus pinned Phegeus to the ground. Sudrenus stood over Phegeus with his sword ready to dispatch him. But the Fates spared both gladiatores from serious injury. Sudrenus was declared the victor and went on to fight in the final match.

		+	This is by M. Verus Paenula, bringing you LIVE REPORTING from the Eternal City.

		+	It’s the month of Iulius and we’re here in Rome to celebrate the Neptunalia, honoring Neptune as the god of the seas and water. Today’s midsummer festival takes place in the middle of a really hot and dry season. It is the time of the year when the rivers are low and water is most scarce here on the Italian Peninsula.
		+
		+	On the way into the city, we observed that the fields and forests near the Tiber were abundant with many newly-built small huts or “umbrae” (shades) and “tabernaculi” (tabernacles), built out of leafy Laurel branches. These huts have been built for today’s festival and are occupied by followers of the Cult of Neptune, who are picnicking outdoors, drinking spring water as well as wine to celebrate today’s anticipated festivities.
		+
		+	We stopped to interview several campers, who advised they were here to honor Neptune to assure rainfall for the crops and to forestall any drought. With bull being cooked over campfires by some of the richer cives, one follower advised that their camp would be sharing the bull with the god after the intramural events to be held today at the Flavian Amphitheatre, just down the via near the Temple of Neptune.
		+
		+	We are here at the Temple of Neptune, where the pontifices have just performed sacrificial rites to Neptune in honor of today’s festivities. We are in the midst of hundreds of Faction Albata and Veneta fan vexilla, carried by those die-hard fans in white and blue, who are now beginning to move in procession to the Flavian Amphitheatre, where the intramural competitions will be held shortly. We’ll check back in closer toward game time with our colleague, Titus Nautius Sura, who is at the Flavian Amphitheatre awaiting the start of the games ...
