Re: Goblins IX: For that, you shall DIE!
My issue is more that the fights just feel wrong. As in, that doesn't look either effective or particularly anatomically correct. If he didn't added as much detail as he does, or kept the scenes short, it wouldn't be much problem, just abstract the fight and all. But as it stands, it's painful for me to read his fight scenes.

Re: Goblins IX: For that, you shall DIE!
True, but when Biscuit was slaughtering them, the goblins were saying something like "if only the Prince were here...".
The way I see it, if you hope in the arrival of someone that's not present (and you have no idea where he can be), instead of calling for the elites, that are in the camp, this could mean that the threat is beyond their capabilities.Last edited by Killer Angel; 2012-09-25 at 03:58 AM.

Re: Goblins IX: For that, you shall DIE!
I expect this combat to go well for the protagonists, but due to totally unforseen circumstances. Like if it was an actual D&D game, Thunt would be realizing he totally overbuilt the encounter (like he overbuilds every encounter) and scrambling to figure out how to save it.
"And then the switch beast suddenly re-appears and saves you! Wow how crazy is that!"
"And then Klik uses one of his super powers to save you! How crazy is that!"
There's been like one combat where the protagonists did well because they were badass, and that was when minmax kicked the **** out of that ranger.

Re: Goblins IX: For that, you shall DIE!
Really? I mean, Minmax would have been killed by that ranger if not for Forgath's handy magic item. It was badass, sure, but not for fighting ability -- I wouldn't say Minmax 'kicked the crap out of him'. Forgath was just clever.
How about the fight against the rookie guards? Nothing came in to save the goblins there. They just fought hard and killed everyone.
I might suggest the fight against the plant-controlled orcs, but it could be argued that all the orcs being stopped by killing the main plant was a crazy-lucky thing.Last edited by The Linker; 2012-09-25 at 02:45 PM.

Re: Goblins IX: For that, you shall DIE!
Definitely. I won't be surprised at all if Duv whips around and kills her anyway. It might be "noble" but it's the worst possible decision. "Mercy for the Guilty is treason to the Innocent." If Duv goes back to super-villiany like I expect, anyone else who dies at her hand or by her command, their blood is on Fox's hands. She might as well be holding the blade on them herself.
Never show someone like Duv mercy. Killing them is the only moral choice. That's a sin Batman commits with alarming frequency too. How many people has he murdered because he keeps sending Joker to a place he knows won't hold him?
Then again, I'm True Neutral so what I believe doesn't really have bearing on a Chaotic Good like Fox.Witty sig here nosey, aren't ya?

Except for the part where they totally used tabletop game logic to figure out what to do.

Re: Goblins IX: For that, you shall DIE!
Alright, I was mistaken; one of them figured it out. But more relevantly, Thaco didn't.
Now, granted, there wasn't much else to do up there. That's why I originally said it was 'arguably' lucky. Though, of course, they still found their way up there through no fault or intentions of their own...Last edited by The Linker; 2012-09-25 at 05:22 PM.

Re: Goblins IX: For that, you shall DIE!
The only thing I can think of is, saves believes that duv IS the chosen one, so she wont kill her if she can avoid it. Perhaps she thinks if she spares her, duv will fricking relax a bit and stop trying to enslave/murder any goblin that doesnt willingly choose to be her slave. Honestly, thats a really crappy way to unite your race. "Obey me or I kill you." I mean, at least in the other fictional tribal races I read about, the big leader guy/girl actually defeats the other tribes first before saying join or die. It establishes their greater power right off the bat. Trying to do it the other way just creates huge slaughters because no tribe that hasnt already been beaten would likely consider surrender. And once you give the join or die ultimatum, you cant just walk it back without losing some cred. "Join or die!" "I choose neither! I FIGHT!" "Ok, you lost, join or die." "Uh, is this anything like the last time you said join or die and I refused to join but am still alive?"
"Interdum feror cupidine partium magnarum Europae vincendarum"
Translation: "Sometimes I get this urge to conquer large parts of Europe."
"If you don't get those cameras out of my face, I'm gonna go 8.6 on the Richter scale with gastric emissions that'll clear this room."
