She may decide to get some revenge, or her supposedly high Int may make her realise that she'll need help to get out of the city in 1 piece.

Re: Goblins
To be fair, she also seems to be the only plausible solution to Chief's predicament, especially since she may know where the 4 keys are.

Re: Goblins
Ah, so that's what Vaarsuvius would have turned out like if s/he went for archery instead of magic. And was scaly and non-gender-ambiguous.

Re: Goblins
When I saw Chief looking at the spear after Kin's comment about leverage, I thought the next panel would be him rigging some device up, using the spear as a lever.

Re: Goblins
That's exactly what I thought, too. When I read Kin's comment about "Don't make me shoot you!" I honestly thought for a second that she was misinterpreting his actions.
Hmm... that spear can split up into several, right? Theoretically, he could throw it at the locks, have it turn into four, and be able to simultaneously unlock 'em all that way. Perhaps he could do something similar to turn the wheel.Last edited by The Linker; 2009-02-22 at 05:29 PM.

Re: Goblins
I doubt it would be easy to smash them; while the javeline is likely to have a ridiculously high cost due to the number of improvements it has, the fact that the mayor is paranoid and/or evil enough about attacks to let GS torture I-don't-know-how many creatures to supposedly get information on how to kill them suggests he won;t have taken chances with making the locks smash-proof.

Re: Goblins
The glowing vents have me wondering what's beneath this gate room. Like, maybe manual power isn't the only way to get the wheel turning.

Re: Goblins
So the crossbow bolts were enchanted, so that's not good for the Minotaur.
I like Kin. I kinda hope she joins the Goblins. I mean they still need a wizard and a rogue.
While I want the escape from Brassmoon part of the story to finish, I'm still wondering what's going on in The Well of Shadows. I like Dies and that lizardfolk guy, what's his name, K'seliss?Two by two, hands of blue.

Re: Goblins
It's strange that the bolts don't glow like other magic weapons. I wonder if it's only the weapons themselves which usually glow? That would explain why the bows don't glow either if it's only the ammo which is magical. I'm not as bothered about DH. It's mainly because I hate Saves a Fox for obvious reasons. His cowardice annoys me as well, though.

Re: Goblins
I was actually assuming that she was just bluffing. It would make sense, given the situation. And it's a grunts crossbow. And it's not glowy, which signifies magic. Magic is ALWAYS glowy!
I had a witty quote, but it was too long, so you get this instead.

Re: Goblins
That is a possible solution to the question. It would make more sense considering how Raging Complains of Names With a +1 Sword and Rage was more then a match for a few of the "elite" guards.

Re: Goblins
I thought that was Nail
But looking at the comic where the owlbear died, You can see that it has purple skin and 4 fingers (including thumb). I also notice that it has a prominent eyebrow (or brow ridge) and is probably bipedal.

Re: Goblins
Gez and Lissou are both perfectly right. (You both deserve a cookie for those explanations .) Considering how prominant that purple guy's debut was, it seems odd that he isn't in the main fight, unless he's part of one of the other groups which Thaco refered to (there is a distinct possibilty that Thunt will swerve us by having him as being completely unimportant to the plot, but I'm assuming he'll have a major inpact on the escape).

Re: Goblins
"prominent debut"? "swerve us"?
Frankly, I see no indication whatsoever that this guy will play any meaningful role or be seen ever again.
All purpose he served was to show that the "monsters" are capable of compassion and camaraderie. His person per se is absolutely unimportant here, it's the principle that counts. I wouldn't be surprised to see him reappear, as Thunt pays far more attention to consistency of this kind than most artists, but I would hardly say he had a prominent debut or that him not appearing again would be Thunt swerving us.LGBTitP Supporter

Re: Goblins
That's one way of looking at it. I just assumed a highly distinct monster doing something like that on their first appearance is likely to be foreshadowing.

Re: Goblins
Hmmm... you know, after thinking about it a bit, I'm starting to shift to your position. The presentation of that creature in the strip it appeared in was quite ominous, that's one for sure...

Re: Goblins
I think that's Goblin Slayer's personal crossbow. I don't think the rank and file get enchanted crossbows on the off chance that all the monsters in the dungeon somehow manage to escape.
I like Kin. I kinda hope she joins the Goblins. I mean they still need a wizard and a rogue.
While I want the escape from Brassmoon part of the story to finish, I'm still wondering what's going on in The Well of Shadows. I like Dies and that lizardfolk guy, what's his name, K'seliss?
Love this story, and I'm glad that Thunt seems to be picking up steam again. Moving takes a lot out of a guy!Thanks to Ceika (X2), Yeril, Holammer and Dr. Bath for the Avatars!

Re: Goblins
This is how I know it isn't Goblinslayer's crossbow.
[/discussion]
On another note, I believe that Kin was bluffing. Unless Brassmoon city has some cheap, magical item creation, infrastructure; it would be obscenely expensive to equip so many soldiers with magical weapons.Bombastic founder of the "That guy with a Halberd" Fanclub
