This strip was worth the long wait. Two winners in a row!
Incidentally, Nale should be going down pretty soon unless he somehow heals himself - he doesn't have too many HPs (triple-classed, remember) and he just got hit by two sneak attacks (with holy arrows I believe) and three or four strikes from Belkar, AFTER suffering damage from traps in the previous comic.
Nale has been hit by arrows but they are not sneak Attack => the smoke gives him concealment so no SA on him.
