jackyl posted:e2: still in awe that a 10 dodge skill got hit with the first charge, good job by Clown Baby. Maybe the size differential makes it harder to dodge a charge since you have to move further? With a sample space of 1 there really isn't enough data to say anything about how good dodge 10 is against tigermen.

That was some real good fights. Does DF consider weight of armor and armor skill for charging? Otherwise I have a hard time seeing how a goblin could knock down and stun a human.

I guess tigermen don't have big brains that need lots of oxygen. Nice photo finish, though! It's good that Madden didn't get to the bit where mass is cubed from size.

Quit breaking the fourth wall. And I've been busy lately. And also, Photobucket sucks now, at least for forum updates like these, which makes the updates take even longer.
I heard the new Flickr sucks even worse though. See y'all next time!

I wonder how many dorfbux has disappeared from the betting pool due to this last hiatus. I only had 208 dorfbux to bet with, and the bets so far are kind of low overall. Of course, it hasn't been long at all since betting opened.

Ant Agonist has 3 points in biting, but she never used it as far as I could see from the combat log. She was mostly blocking things and futilely trying to hit things with her whip. There appears to be some similarity between Gnomelette and Ant Agonist's builds.

I have once again put ALL OF MY DORFBUX on Daggum Polecats to win, so there's a big payout of 10 dorfbux waiting for whoever bets on the other team!

Ignite Memories posted:You guys suck Hey, in the first fight Harold died right away while Ant Agonist at least blocked the other team for a good while after everyone else was dead. It seems we take turns being survivors, next match it will be Knuckle Dragger (it won't). It looks to me like wrestling moves are a defensive fighter's bane, and that my idiot antwoman always goes to whip the molemarian if there is one, as if such creatures can feel pain.

Batch crop the images down with irfanview. You don't get the tile sets messed up by resizing them, and it's really fast and easy to do. It looks like you're already cropping rather than resizing though.

I had no opinion on this match before I started reading that update. Reading the lineup, I decided "I'll root for Habeas Corpses!" Even when I don't bet dorfbux, I lose bets. Anyway, this match raises an interesting possibility, seeing as a fighter doesn't show up as dead in the combat log until their body lands. Say there are two fighters (left) in a match, Fighter A and Fighter B. 1. Fighter A punches Fighter B's head clean off, sending the body flying across the arena. 2. Fighter A bleeds out and dies. 3. Fighter B's body lands. Fighter A survived longer, but fighter B wins if we follow the combat log.

Geokinesis posted:I don't think I've seen an antperson do any good ever, are they just terrible? Ant Agonist did a swell job holding off multiple opponents last tournament, but she was on a team with Knuckle Dragger. (And I didn't realise she would spawn opposite molemarians, or I would have abandoned the whip gimmick) Sorry for being terrible in my advice last tournament, Ignite Memories, I should have specified that skills you buy purely for the stat buffs by total skill ranks should be attack skills you can't use due to not having the right weapon equipped. Also, is that still a thing in df2014? I don't even know.

We won a match? And Antastic contributed? This is pretty great! Unfortunately, even if Two and a Half men lose 0-4 to Modern Family, they've got us beat on kills already. pun pundit fucked around with this message at 16:15 on Sep 29, 2014 |

Oh, Carver is fighting Manotaur, I see. Run by an experienced player, too. Well, Carver is quite handicapped as the arena rules prohibit her from using teleportation, fire magic, or her friendship with various deities, so she'll just have to slice that Manotaur up with a sword.

Lava is a nerf to the dodge skill, and everyone has already built their fighter. I approve of lava only if slade shields are introduced and can be used to surf on the lava. pun pundit fucked around with this message at 15:51 on May 11, 2015 |
