HEY GUYS, THIS POST IS ABOUT ERFWORLD! (as ^he^ suggested) Davethulhu posted:Based on Parson's plan, the central hex contains all of the "A" dragons, 19 of them, all wounded, plus the warlords. The surrounding hexes contain unwounded "B" dragons. If Parson has a trick planned, it's something that hasn't been shown yet It's true that Parson's plan originally involved that. BUT he formulated this plan around incomplete information on the nature of the game (he learned it in the next comic, even). He assumed that Ansom had perfect knowledge of the battlefield, like himself. If Ansom had perfect knowledge, such a feint would never work, as Ansom would see the dwagons protect nothing and attack the A group. So, the safest place to put the dwagons is someplace off safely out of detection range for Ansom, who will charge the center hex around the back, leaving himself open to a bunch of pissed off pink lizards with no real gain. And make, tame. What-the-gently caress-ever. All it really means is that Stanley can use dwagons in combat. If there's a mechanical meaning, they haven't really elucidated it yet. (And I know, one of the klogs said that units were made in cities, and it's a question of whether Stanley can set Gobwin Knob to make more or not but who cares it's time for fighting)

Hell, Haley even called them "redshirts." They're never getting that cup of something. And I'm glad this comic answered some questions we were asking, and some that we weren't. We now know that Roy's coming back, where they're escaping to, and that Haley has a tattoo on her back. Edit: drat, beaten.

I don't know, I think the redshirts will make it simply because he's going to such great pains to paint them as typical fodder. Also, good to see Belkar kept the skull

Eventually, the two of them form a love which will withstand the ages. This is now a formal request for Rule 34 to be applied.

I think I figured out why OotS is such a good comic: Two small details that just that held my interest in this strip alone: 1) Durkon's accent is so thick, that you don't even know what he THINKS V's gender is. "E's" Granted, it's probably "he" in this case, but the detail! 2) Haley has a tattoo. And you know that's going to be important somehow. Or maybe not. The fact I want to know more about it though? That's a good comic.

So...they sneak back to the corpse, get discovered by failing a check somewhere along the line, Belkar skull-fires their way out of the hobgoblin horde, and at some point he hits Roy/Haley in a blast, but then they make a joke about how his corpse is not an "unattended object," and thus gets to use Haley's Reflex save and Evasion and manages to escape unscathed? If this happens I will be happy. If this does not happen I will be happy. This comic really has me.

That's a good comic. it could also just be a throwback to this comic: http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0309.html it's panel 9 in between "I cheat at Solitaire" and "I kissed a girl once" of course it could be important, and I think it's a heart with an arrow as opposed to a heart with wings, but it could be a message... a SPOOOOOKY message!

"I have a tattoo you've never seen" if I'm not mistaken. But now we have and Elan (maybe) hasn't.

I'm happy with people talking about erfworld as long as we get to talk about how much it sucks. Also we can talk about Goblins, too. Notice how I capitalised "Goblins", but left "erfworld' in lowercase? Yeah, that was intentional

Notice how I capitalised "Goblins", but left "erfworld' in lowercase? It took me a while to start reading Goblins because I just can't stand how that guy draws goblins - they're these weird blobby alien things whereas everything else is more or less normal. Once I got bored enough to read through the archive and get past the mandatorily lame "I didn't realize this would turn into a serious story" early gags, though, it began to grow on me and now I awaiting the next update

Honestly, the comic started as a pretty good gag-a-strip webcomic, but then he hit us with comics like the one where Fumbles accidentally attacks that elvish child or any strip with the evil dwarf paladin (particularly the one where Taps and Asks die).

No no no, see those are all actually kind of cute and/or funny. That is not how rule 34 works at all. This is rule 34    You probably shouldn't click on this...Now which should worry me more, that it was so easy for me to find images for this, or that this was the only one I could post outside of FYAD?
