    Default Good Music For A Gladitorial Match?

    OK, so the players have entered a tourenment where they aren't in actual danger, but they've reached the title match, and I thought this music might be good.
    My Homestuck role is Thane of Space of the Land of Insanity and Frogs.

    The Malkavians would be proud.

    There's always "Entrance of the Gladiators."

    Something instrumental will probably be best.

    Little dark for my games. I would have gone right past the music from Gladiator (had to mention it though), and gone right for the gladiator music from the Star Trek episode The Gamesters of Triskelion - but that's just the kind of guy I am.

    Number two choice would actually be music from Conan the Barbarian for my money

    IDEA! Rather than making a new thread every time, why don't we just make a "Music Suggestion" thread for general use where people post situations and other people recommend good music for them. I don't mean to come off as accusitory, but it just seems like it might be a useful resource.

    I've had several good tracks for you, but youtube doesn't have any Guilty Gear Isuka music for some reason. Let's see if I can find them somewhere else.

    Yes, but that makes most people think of circus clowns!

    You could always take the Star Trek approach...

    If anyone's ever heard the Dream Theater epic "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence", the third movement (War Inside My Head) seems to fit the bill.

    The final countdown is an excellent song for this kind of thing.
    I take this game with the seriousness it deserves.
    Not all that much. It's a game.
