Well, if you survived the flame war in mid-thread, then you have made it to the end...

I have one point to make concerning the fine art of the Tossing of Little People. Unless I am badly mistaken, you would normally be forced to use whatever Small Person was at hand when you ran into the enemy, correct? So this would restrict you to flinging about members of your own party.

Bearing this in mind, and assuming that the onrushing enemies are so nasty that you are forced to resort to Body Bowling (with live ball & pins) rather than normal fighting, you will probably choose from a Dwarven Fighter or perhaps a Thief of Halfling or Gnomish descent.

This rather eliminates the possibility of launching Dark Dwarves from the nearest catapult unless, of course, your group of adventurers happens to be of evil alignment (contains a Dark Dwarf or two) or you are busily plumbing the depths of the Underdark (and collecting ammunition as you go). In either of these cases, the Dark Dwarves can be readily substituted for the more ordinary variety.
