You will have a hard time trying to get Kors to drink. One thing is his Magical 2-handed double bladed battleaxe +5. The second thing is his permanent lightning reflexs and speed. He can chop you down to size in the blink of an eye

Point taken (get it?) BladeMaster. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif I will try to control myself in the future. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/FRblush.gif I would never seriously consider catapulting Kors (flinging perhaps). http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...l_laughter.gif Oops!! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/FRblush.gif There goes that darn control issue again. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

AzureWolf 05-12-2001 08:31 AM

hmmmm i think we have one under here somewhere but we will have to clean up this bloody mess first if we want to find one. That Kors is a damn liability to the dwarven throwing guild! We gotta keep an eye out for that little bugger in the futurehttp://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

well yes Blade is was Kors i was tlaking about..see i said Kors was in the subject..and i catapulted the subject..thus i catapulted kors

BladeMaster 05-12-2001 05:34 PM

When seeing as it was Kors that you launched from the catapult. You got chopped to tiny pieces. As for the flames they did not afect him due to his ring of fire resistance

I got choped to tiny peices??

You can go ahead and try to explain that one,but i dotn think ti will make too much sence

er...i think he would have been a bit hurt if he got launched into the air and landed...and i dont think he would landed at the spot he got launched at

BladeMaster 05-12-2001 08:22 PM

He landed on something nice and soft. Plus if he was hurt he would be able to block out the pain because he would be a very pissed off dwarf and you do not want to see what a very pissed off dwarf can do to a person

well thats the hole point we started this topic...to see hgow much damage a pissed off dwarf can do. And if you didnt want your dwarf to be launched..you probley hsoulnt have posted on the topic

BladeMaster 05-12-2001 08:37 PM

Well you guys wanted to find out how pissed off dwarves get and you found out didn't you. And now you get alittle pissed off becaused I added something interesting to the thread next time I just won't add anything. As long as you use Dark Dwarves, Kors will be along side helping you

Fair enough. From now on let's only use Dark Dwarves. If Kors doesn't object, can we assume, for the sake of this thread, that all references to Dwarves are to Dark Dwarves and noble (albeit a little mischievous - the turnip juice label incident) Dwarves, like Kors, will be excluded from this general reference? http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Grand-Ranger 05-12-2001 11:47 PM

but it will take more time up to fine dark dwarfs,going so far into the moutains and what not..

(sigh)

Fine,Fine,if thast the way it HAS to be

BladeMaster 05-13-2001 12:12 AM

Kors has no problem hunting those dirty evil buggers down

BladeMaster 05-14-2001 05:33 AM

Ok here we go. Kors has rounded up 20 Dark Dwarves to be used as ammo for the catapult. So let he know were to put them will you get ready to launch them

Best to get them to form an orderly queue, makes launching a more efficient process, and in the catapulting trade, we thrive on efficiency http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

"Hey, Kors? What's the average weight of those Dark Dwarves? and do they burn long?"

They average about 250 (they are fat little buggers) due to all of the dirt and soot they can burn for areally long time.

onthepequod 05-15-2001 07:51 AM

Supply? Did I hear somebody say we have a fresh supply of ammo?

I don't claim to be a Dark Dwarf pundit but I have had a different experience, with Dark Dwarves, than Kors has. My experience is that they just won't stay lit. Thats not to say they won't burn but just not like a.........err.......that is.......other species. Something about their diet causes their pores to secret a slightly sticky fluid that just does not burn well.

However, I did stumble across an attribute that may be exceedingly beneficial to this exercise. You see, a flour in water mixture applied to their skin causes them to have an adhesion factor that even NASA can't replicate. Please don't ask me how I discovered this, it's a time consuming story and frankly a little embarrassing.

Thus I present to you....Sticky Dwarf Flinging (Kors I'm only talking about Dark Dwarves):

To begin with, the Dark Dwarves must have their shirts removed, with the floor and water solution applied concentrically around their navel to a diameter of 6" (nobody said war was pretty boys and ladies). This is for the following reasons:

1) If the Dwarves are entirely covered they will not leave the catapult when fired with the end product being four exceedingly angry, incapacitated, Dark Dwarves stuck in the bucket of the catapult. Woe to the poor sot who has to pry them out (we can't waste ammo you know) .

2) This minimal covering with solution minimzed the chance that they'll adhere to one another mid-flight. However, if they do this make sure you fire a burning arrow at them because once stuck together they just hack each other to bits in mid-air. Its better to have semi-burning chunks falling on the enemy rather than just chunks.

3) This minimal covering with solution also maximizes the Dark Dwarfs effectiveness once adhered to the enemy. With only the area aroung the belly button stuck, the Dark Dwarf can get 75% of a full swing in (with both hands equiped), not to mention kicking. A particulally feisty one can get six attacks in, with its four appendages, in a round, making it a truly damaging weapon.


The real trick to the technique is making sure the little buggers strike the opponent stomach first. The only way I know of doing this is to install a board at the bottom of the catapult. When fired these Dwarves will catch their toes on the board and thus be sent on their little ways tumbling anterior over posterior (similar to a throwing axe) toward the target. This, however, is a technique that is still very much in the works. So if anyone observes needed improvements or a better way to get them to hit stomach first please share. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

BladeMaster 05-16-2001 12:00 AM

Your lucky Kors is looking for Dark Dwarves. If he gets back and finds out what happened you are the next person to be launched from the catapult.
