I really like it too, ecept the coloring could use a bit more shading etc. but I really suck at coloring with Photoshop :-$ . ORCS pwn Dwarves X-D , but Crownies pwn Skeletons X-D !!! Quote
Batbrick Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Thanks *sweet* . I really like it too, ecept the coloring could use a bit more shading etc. but I really suck at coloring with Photoshop :-$ . ORCS pwn Dwarves X-D , but Crownies pwn Skeletons X-D !!! _________ But how can a Crownie beat a skeleton if skeletons are already dead? X-D I Am FEAR Incarnate! *skull* Quote
Khorne Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 _________But how can a Crownie beat a skeleton if skeletons are already dead? X-D I Am FEAR Incarnate! *skull* I meant in terms of coolness ;-) . Orcs are cooler than Dwarves, Crownies are cooler than skellies ;-) :-P . Quote
TheFrisian Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 But how can a Crownie beat a skeleton if skeletons are already dead? X-D Good question actually! How DO you beat a Skellie??? It has no vital organs and is already dead, even if you smash its bones, wouldn't it just put itself together again? *wacko* Quote
natelite Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Good question actually! How DO you beat a Skellie??? It has no vital organs and is already dead, even if you smash its bones, wouldn't it just put itself together again? *wacko* what with? super glue? :-D Quote
TheFrisian Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 LOL, I don't think they had super glue in medieval times. :-D But seriously, it's not like skeletons are that solid to begin with! I doubt that any could stay upright or even whole without some aid, let alone that they start walking around. So who says the magic used by the wizard to animate the skeletons stops working after a skeleton gets smashed apart... Quote
Ikki o' Moopyville Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 (edited) Sounds like Pirates of the Caribbean now. :-P I guess you could either smash the skellie to tiny bits or destroy the magic that keeps them walking... but what do I know! I'm not even certain if I posted here yet, but I'm going for orcs for the MiniFig-sized ones, even though it's taken right out of Tolkien. But then again, so is most fantasy of this kind. *sweet* If it was folklore-based instead (now THAT would be great!), trolls would fit better. -Ikk Edited October 22, 2007 by Ikki o' Moopyville Quote
Hinckley Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 LOL, I don't think they had super glue in medieval times. :-D But seriously, it's not like skeletons are that solid to begin with!

Sounds like a great concept for a vig contest: How to kill a Skellie! >:-) Would you like to TheFrisian, or shall I?... Quote
Siegfried Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Good question actually! How DO you beat a Skellie??? It has no vital organs and is already dead, even if you smash its bones, wouldn't it just put itself together again? *wacko* Traditionally they are beaten with blunt objects, like hammers or maces. According to the Book (AD&D DM Guide 1979, p211); sharp weapons cause half damage only Quote
TheFrisian Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Sounds like a great concept for a vig contest: How to kill a Skellie! >:-) Would you like to TheFrisian, or shall I?... Go right ahead Hinckley! This is going to be quite interesting.... :-D Traditionally they are beaten with blunt objects, like hammers or maces. According to the Book (AD&D DM Guide 1979, p211); Interesting, will that actually undo the magic that brought the undead to life? Quote
Siegfried Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Interesting, will that actually undo the magic that brought the undead to life? Oddly, the answer seems to be yes. *wacko* Perhaps the magic is localised to the joints! :-P Quote
Hinckley Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Oddly, the answer seems to be yes. *wacko* Perhaps the magic is localised to the joints! :-P So then whacking really is the answer... 8-| Quote
Siegfried Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 So then whacking really is the answer... 8-| Only if it is firm. It doesn't work otherwise. Quote
Hinckley Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Only if it is firm. It doesn't work otherwise. |-/ That's always your answer. Quote
Siegfried Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 |-/ That's always your answer. :-| Can't you keep secrets? I thought that was just between us? :'-( Quote
Asuka Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 So then whacking really is the answer... 8-| And you already knew it all the way.... I guess you prepared yourself your whole life just for the time the Skellies came out to play, without realizing that this is what one day Quote
Hinckley Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 I thought that was just between us? :'-( Well, yes, that was the original issue...oh...oops. Never mind :-$ Quote
Piranha Posted October 23, 2007 Author Posted October 23, 2007 (edited) Well thanks for almost Everyone voting against me in a biased "unscientific" poll :-P At least Troll Warrior is in second :-D Orc is okay, I guess......wait no I mean....errr......darn....I went against my own biased poll :'-( Vote ON! Piranha Edited October 23, 2007 by Piranha Quote
iamded Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Re; How to kill a skellie, I woulda thought decapitation would be an effective method. Decapitation with a hammer. >:-) :-D ~Peace Quote
Hinckley Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Well thanks for almost Everyone voting against me in a biased "unscientific" poll :-P I know! Isn't it great??!! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-P Quote
Siegfried Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Re; How to kill a skellie, I woulda thought decapitation would be an effective method. Decapitation with a hammer. >:-) :-D ~Peace Traditionally no. They tend to just keep coming. Haven't you seen any un-dead movies? :-D Quote

Piranha LOL!!! :-D Well, there you have it... from now on, we'll just refer to them as Orcs! And the big guys are Trolls. Somehow, the outcome of this poll doesn't surprise me that much :-D Quote
Hinckley Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Okay, now that this poll has a solid answer, let's move on and kill some skellies! :-D Quote
Sir Norman Ray Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 I was about to mention the good old fashioned boomstick. But then I remembered the final scenes of "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" where the Germans (Fur der Vaterland) are fighting off the reanimated suits of armour and clothing... So, smacking them with a large, heavy weapon suits me fine! Pass me the Claymore. Quote
