... a morose outlook on life, as well as a social disease he picked up?


Bwahahahahahahahahaha!

[Darkmoon]

It's amazing how many ways you can spin jokes off of Alucard's love life.

[Destina Faroda]

Okay, who is responsible for the additional sprite work?

[Damaris]

Darkmoon. He spent hours this week working on them.  Honestly, I think he's getting better.

[Nimrods Son]

not bad man, not bad!

[Darkmoon]

Well, as I noted on one comic, one guy volunteered a couple of poses, which I used and worked with to flesh out the additional sprites. Sadly, unlike Jorge, I had to use other sprites as reference when making these new ones. Specifically, Marle and Magus.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Interestingly, I thought for a minute there that Darkmoon was getting knocked about a bit, so I went and counted.

From the point Alec gets hit (5 strips back, now) Alec takes 803 damage, in one hit. Darkmoon takes 1148 damage, in a total of 7 hits. Raye takes a staggering 1347 damage, in only two hits.

So it's not as far out as I thought. I'd still be interested in how many hp each of them have, though. :-]

[Darkmoon]

Well you also have to consider if the RPG system they are playing in allows for slow regeneration of HP over time, like it does with the MP? Also, any time the characters aren't "on camera", they could be using healing spells...

Trust me, I've gone over details like that in my head.

Once reason Alec got knocked out after 800 HP in one hit is because of stunning factor. That was a brutal hit, and it would knock any character out for at least a couple of rounds.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

I figured "slow regen over time" wasn't a factor, or not a significant factor, in terms of "a single bout with Raye" :-]

... it wasn't so much an objection or complaint, as a "gee, I should really find something more useful to do with my time than to count the damage hp in a webcomic" :-]

STOP NERDING UP THE FORUMS!

[Seth C Triggs]

The water+shock thing was brilliant though.

Is it me or does the God of the Olde English font really like Darkmoon? Hehehhe...he gets the best effects.

[Darkmoon]

That's not intentional, mind you. I finally started using counters and dual-techs in Year One, and I had to have a way of showing it was happening... just so happens that the times I can really use them, Darkmoon is in the room.

STOP NERDING UP THE FORUMS!

Bah. Just you wait until saturday. :-P

No, but they had both sustained damage in the past few hours from other enemies, so I didn't want you to think I hadn't taken that into account.
