Erfworld 18

[chionophile]

Hah! Boop!

Discuss.

[plommon]

That was booping, boop!

[Tormsskull]

When I first saw it I thought it said "Holy Boob", but maybe that was just what was on my mind :P Good comic, looking forward to the next one.

[TheAnimal]

Oh, boop... I can't discuss from my laughing!
"Crazy giant potato man", LOL!

[WampaX]

Boop.

Nice. Wanda did right by this.

[TinSoldier]

"Boop me in the boop."

Hahahaha! That was booping funny!

[MightyMuenster]

I've got to say... Erfworld has been growing on me. Quite appreciated on this side of the computer.

[rawling]

Heh yeah, this is starting to grow on me as well.

[drewnchick]

Ok...Erfworld is officially funny now!! "Holy boop!" I was rolling for several minutes. I've now gone back to re-read the whole thing from the beginning, and, just as the authors promised, it's a developing story...and...and...I GET IT now! What a crazy, funny, weird sort of comic! I like it!!

[Khantalas]

That was booping great! Boop! I am booping addicted to this boop webcomic.

Poor Wanda. She really needs aspirin.

[Castaras]

"Do you have a headache spell"
"Yes!" "Or...to cure one? No. If I had that, I would never stop casting it."

That cracked me up

[TheAnimal]

Poor Wanda. She really needs aspirin.

Too bad Parson didn't have any on him when he got PLOTed.

[TinSoldier]

Mustn't forget, "I can't even see his points!"

[Hart av Srednak]

In my (very humble) opinion: Best so far.

(and I've liked Erf from beginnig)

[Rex Idiotarum]

Now we just have to get the Forum mods to turn all profanity to "Boop" instead of "****"

[storybookknight]

Aaaand the plot comes together. Likely, there will be love triangles with our hero, Wanda Firebaugh and Jillian... or pathetic geek lust triangles, more likely.

I foresee comparisons with Bogroll...

[Wallyz]

Crazy potato man with no visible points.


OMGWTB?

[Sky_Schemer]

"If I had that, I would never stop casting it."

Priceless.

[Sebastian Bux]

Boop.

Statute ... Verbal Morality Statute. Still, nice :')

I'd love for Erfworld to take an edgier approach to the humor, but that's really a personal preference. Especially considering younger audiences may read the comic. Though there is an interesting use of sex vs. language (i.e. Wanda's garb in 17 vs. the use of "Boop" in 18). Heh, as far as I'm concerned they can say boop as long as wanda keeps casting the findamancer spell at least once every 4 pages.

Speaking of Wanda, I have a question about the use of magic in Erfworld.

Wanda is a croakamancer, but she can cast a spell designed for use by a findamancer. So I take that to mean that all magic is accessible to all spellcasters? If so, what allows a findamancer to cast the spell better then Wanda could? Or is it more that Findamancers practice the spell regularily?

EDITED: boop ... I can see it now and it never ends ....

[mport2004]

I love this comic.

[squeakyreaper]

He made the campaign, I think, and will now all the plot twists and stuff. Its like, the ultimate spoiler!

EDIT: Atleast I think.

[pestilenceawaits]

That was a booping great comic. Stanley is booping hilarious.

It has been noted that Wanda is good with all kinds of magic. It could be a skill-based system. Then again, Wanda is a unique character, and can have all sorts of special abilities that your rank-and-file mages could not.

Hmm... Parson's smart enough to know what's going on (these are probably his iconic characters). What does "points", mean? Does Parson not have hit points? Could be referring to points like how most systems assign values to units to limit the size of armies.

[Captain van der Decken]

Heh. Boop me in the boop. Nice.

[Rambi]

Boop. Thats never going to get old, ever. I still can't figure out what he ment when he said he had "no visible points"

[Neofite]

Erfworld is booping great!!!

[Druid]

"If I had that i'd never stop casting it"

Reminds me of my life.

Boop.

[Neofite]

Boop. Thats never going to get old, ever. I still can't figure out what he ment when he said he had "no visible points"

being that it is a strat game, units have a certain "point cost" to have them in your "army"


thats the way i took it.

[Shisumo]

It means he can't read his stats. In most computer strategy games, holding your mouse over a unit allows you to read its current status, hit points/damage/whatever, and other relevant statistics.

Our Hero, however, not being a unit in the game, lacks said statistics. Which implies all sorts of interesting possibilities.
