I think this was supposed to be going somewhere, and then I forgot what it was supposed to be.

I have no idea how I managed to draw this.

Carrying another helmet would ruin the disguise, but walking into a northern camp with the wrong colour of duct tape on your helmet can be dangerous.

For those who missed the earlier issues: At the Pennsic War, each side wears either red or blue tape on their helmets to show which team they’re on. My team has traditionally been red.

When Vindalf is really mad, he swears in Dwarven.

Much later, I decide that the helmet Vindalf is currently wearing has a back story.

I don’t think that sneaking should really be accompanied by yelling at your party not to follow. But I always do, because I am terrible at sneaking.

At Basic, they gave me the “light” machine gun and radio, and told me to sneak up to the target. This is about what it sounded like: https://youtu.be/PrQQZuLru9s?t=32s

Hey, why aren’t the arrows on fire? All fantasy arrows have to be on fire, if you believe movies.

The best moment in movie battle history was in “Timeline”. The enemy *doesn’t* set their arrows on fire! The use of these “Night Arrows” is clearly cheating, and everyone is offended!

I miss being able to brainstorm with @lledra-art and @neshtasplace. I also miss getting @lledra-art to help me with special issues because she can draw.

Samuel L Jackson when, playing Mace Windu, wanted a purple lightsaber. Fans have spent ages trying to ascribe meaning to the colours of the sabres and what does it mean to have only one purple?

It means you can instantly see Mr. Jackson in any of the wide shots when his weapon is lit.

Scientifically, the Gold-shirts had an 18% chance to get killed on the USS Enterprise, under Kirk. The infamous Red-Shirts only had a 10% chance of being killed. (https://nerdist.com/star-trek-red-shirts-werent-statistically-the-most-likely-to-die-after-all/)

But the stereotype remains. I think it’s why they switched colours in TNG, the Redshirt union demanded a safer colour. It didn’t work.

So, with the medical tent selling a hand full of laser swords, to raise money for bandaids etc., at Pennsic: how many lightsabers could be out there?

We failed to take into account that some nerds might bring their own from home. Turns out, that the group from Australia brought a bunch of high quality FX lightsabres with them. So we begin our raid on their camp, and just hear several, much better lightsabres igniting from all directions.

It was a calculated risk… I failed maths twice…

So, way back in issue 183, I recalled the time at Pennsic when we failed to storm a cool pirate ship. Later that next day, one of our friends was telling a story about the bunch of Jedi who took the coll pirate ship. Apparently, there was another group who managed to get their hands on lightsabers. So we decided to raid them, because like how many laser swords could there be in a medieval war?
