Re: Things You Never Noticed VII: Wait, This Isnt the MitD Thread?
And yet again, the unholy abomination rides bare-back.
No saddles for the allosauruses, but the raptors get them. I can't tell about the Pteranadons, but I'm inclined to say "no." I thought Tarquin's had saddlebags, but it was just an emergency pouch. But the triceratops used a saddle, and the Patagotitan-sized brontosaurus had a howda.Warhammer 40,000 Campaign Skirmish Game: Warpstrike

Re: Things You Never Noticed VII: Wait, This Isnt the MitD Thread?
Yeah, that's actually pretty common in the real world: Nile and Indus both mean river; Mississippi means big river; Rhine and Rhone both mean flow, i.e., river. The Sahara and the Arabian Deserts are both technically the Desert Desert. Alps means mountains. A lot of the names of geographic features started out as common nouns. I just figured that the people in the Stickverse don't speak English, and the software that Burlew has been using to translate their language into English doesn't recognize place-names as proper nouns, so it just translates them literally.
On topic, I only noticed that the flag of Gobbotopia in 702 has a brown star for the bugbears after I read 1038.

...Huh. The green star is the goblins, the orange star the hobgoblins, and the purple one TDO then. Neat.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VII: Wait, This Isnt the MitD Thread?
I never noticed this either!
Rereading some of the archive today, and this is a small one, but I only just now noticed that it was Blackwing talking in panel 3 of #903. I always thought it was just V talking aloud, didn't notice Blackwing was contributing.

I never noticed Kudzu reaching for Hilgya's dangling braid in panel 2.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VII: Wait, This Isnt the MitD Thread?
I feel like it's been pointed out a lot, but in this strip Redcloak is actually tugging his cloak over the phylactery in the last panel. Which begs the question why he put it on his left side of his belt and it somehow migrated to his right...?
Also, in the next strip in the second panel the wights are just standing there, close to Tsukiko. I found that detail pretty creepy.
Second page, third panel, one of the crewmembers has an O-Chul-esque scar over his face.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VII: Wait, This Isnt the MitD Thread?
Tsukiko has problems finding “secret doors” that are literally in front of her. Even if she knew that was the phylactery - remember, it was originally Redcloak’s holy symbol, so outwardly it would likely look as a normal symbol of such - she probably would have failed the Spot check to notice it in the first place.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VII: Wait, This Isnt the MitD Thread?
His pants clearly only have one back pocket, on the right side. Since he readied his magic in his dominant hand first, he was forced to twist a bit to put the phylactery in his back pocket with his only remaining free hand. At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it, no matter how little sense modern pants pocket on medieval/Renaissance-esque armor makes.

Re: Things You Never Noticed VII: Wait, This Isnt the MitD Thread?
But...why? Also he's just hanging it on his belt. And I'm surprised he didn't tuck it away before teleporting back to a place he knows that Xykon and Tsukiko could be watching.
Good thing the hobgoblin 'janitor' had more than one pocket then, or else Tsukiko would have found something else along with a key.
Is there a comic strip where this is concretely mention? I thought the oak table might've been the "ring of defense" Durkon was talking about due to
a) it's a ring
b) the amount of rule-fu Durkon used meant only people familiar with the laws could use it to maximum effect. Durkon? Read that green book front and back. Gontor? Maybe skipped it over. Voila, Durkon wins.

No, but for my part, this one says they are in the middle chamber and talks about the inner chamber being the meeting room, which implies an outer chamber as well, neatly matching Durkon's words of three rings of defence. It also explains the lack of safety handrails in the bridge.

Why would dwarves worry about railings? Proper folk are very Stable and will never go over the edge. It's the flighty leaf-eared ones who do silly things like that.

Because tripping due to aching joints and falling to your death is not a honorable death.
And yes, I think you're not being serious, but the bridge is wide enough it is not dangerous for a few individuals in a small group. But it is a great defensive setup if a mob is clamoring for a representative government.
First ring of defence: anti-armies
Second ring of defence: anti-magic & foreigners
Third ring of defence: anti-antics

Re: Things You Never Noticed VII: Wait, This Isnt the MitD Thread?
I only noticed the... black thingies in the background on panel one of this page.
I tried to figure out what it was by reading through earlier pages and later pages but alas, I failed.
My best guesses is that it is either more, smaller pieces of the zombie dragon also falling to the ground or shots from the catapults in the distance.
