Daily Art Preview

The weapon does not bug me that much in her hands visually. i see it and hope "Ah a vampire, she must be strong enough to wield a large maul with a short haft."

Minis wise Bugbear Head Reaver swings a large greataxe and the orc raider is one handing a greataxe, so their is precedence for npcs wielding big weapons.

Hmm... Is it just me or should the next piece of art be up already. Grrr, they better not exclude weekends for the daily pictures.

Every time I see a war hammer depicted like the one in that vampiress pic, I wince.

The head of that hammer has to weigh more than fifty pounds! More likely around a hundred! You could use it as a weapon, but it would be so slow and unwieldy that you'd die before you got in a second swing!

... you didn't like Cloud either, did you?

Big swords tend to bug me, too, yeah. Fortunately, in video games there tend to be more distractions (like story). With a picture I just look and see "Wow... no."

There's nothing stopping a story being present in p&p gaming either. Well, except for possible carping about "railroading"....

I think Surgoshan meant he had only the picture to work with. There is no story accompanying this picture (yet). He looks at the pic, sees big hammer, and NO dialog window opens that tells you she would pay you 500 gold pieces if you'd give her 12 Wolf pelts. It's just the "naked picture".

 

[Surgoshan]

Yeah. That.

Hey! You got your realistic weaponry seminar in my fantasy action game!

You see, my main complain with the lich is that it is thoroughly skeletal.

I'd like to see liches that still have their skin stretched taut over their bones. And also non-wizard liches (clerics can become them just fine).

Cue in Counter Collection: Undead:

Uber-awesome, work, man. The 1st one really reminds me of Eddie:

As much on an Iron Maiden fan I am, I'm surprised I didn't consider his sort of look for a lich before (or a death knight, for that matter).
