Yeah, some are easy.
BUt there are some tough ones also... still biting nails over them!😛


They can be solved using the usual methods that are employed for solving cryptic clues

Folks,
Seeing the rather lukewarm response, we are scrapping the Team A/ Team B concept.

Anybody can just go ahead and post their answers.

Even if you are able to solve some of the clues, post them.

Fantastic game, Sia & Varaali. I was gonna ask - how does one play this - privately conference among the teams and then post all the answers as a team?
I'll post my answers later.

Yes, that's what Sia had in her mind initially. But then I realized, private conferencing among team members may not be feasible owing to different time zones and back and forth PMs b/w members will not be practical either.

So, as of now the contest is thrown open to individuals. You can post your answers serially, too, if not in the grid.

Awaiting your answers...

C'mon Vrish - 8 Across is fairly straightforward. Shouldn't be too dificult.

General Hints:
10 Down is more Historical than Mythological .

Think of alternative spellings as well...

Vrish,
6 Down and 11 Across in your answers don't match. You'll have to change one of them
