Re: Page 209: Damn bugs and their chatter! Putting Alex to sleep!

https://well-of-souls.com/gallery/images/outsider209.jpg Yep, the damn chittering is turning Alex into a telepath :P Seriously, I have a working theory (that I planned to use in a story) that certain states of mind would allow the Lotai to be pierced/lowered a little. Well, but he is perceiving *th...

Re: Page 206: Just needs an expert's touch

Wait is this guy alone do the Umaki actually just send one soldier to search a ship? I mean yeah they do shit in a mulitasking manner all the time but one hardtrooper can't be considered enough in any case given the sheer way the Umaki throw numbers at their problems. Probably just story/art constr...

Well, that's a bit exaggerated. It's a fantasy story, so it's fine, but usually, in such a situation, you would keep a low profile.

Re: Page 202: WHY?

Why are we focused on Fireblade's hair? I mean cloud has no hard suit in a likely boarding action and she has a pistol. A single pistol against what a giant cyborg bug like being the size of a tank? She is a sacrifice and we are fine with that oh well... Noooo, not Cloud! And also not Spiral! And B...

I suspect they plan to try to ether dominate the boarding party or mess with their perceptions.
Judging from the Elerians ability to take over whole planets with a cruiser, it wouldn't surprise me if they could dominate an entire ship.

Re: Page 198: Beated!

Well, the story/Arioch will have to reveal that. Since there seem to be powers bent on preventing contact between Loroi & Humans, I suspect there is more to it than just "differently evolved template". If that were the case, contact to the Loroi would be unimportant & there would be no reason to ac...

Re: Page 198: Beated!

Good point. So humans in general are immune. That's not one of their MoO traits. To be fair, this isn't a one-for-one by a long shot (even though Beryl, Tempo, and Fireblade are nearly identical to the Elerian Scientist, Spy, and Soldier respectively). The heavy implication is that humans are the t...

Re: Page 198: Beated!

Btw. was it ever said that humans in general are immune to the telepathy of the Loroi or is this a specific trait of Alex? Tempo says on page 66 that Tempest's Farseer couldn't pick up anything from Bellarmine until she started broadcasting greetings, while normally they should've seen her coming f...

Re: Page 198: Beated!

I wonder how many years we've been in chapter 2? Good to see the human win against the mighty Loroi in this game also yeah that is sound logic in this forever war. Yes. I was thinking how clever Alex has been. Not only has he pumped them for information but by winning the game he has distracted the...

I mean 'tail wag'? 'Cheater', 'Plunger'? She shouldn't insult someone in a language she doesn't know well :mrgreen:
Spiral is insulting her fellow Tenoin in Trade, you know.
Wasn't it mentioned somewhere she isn't good in Trade?

But of course and those "extra-snooty warriors" would be assigned somewhere else. Notice how elves tend to have a reputation of being insufferable in many settings? The depiction of Elves as long lived, beautiful, magical, enigmatic, secluded, martial, completely good & arrogant is the definition o...

Re: Page 194: partial functionality

Well, someone shot down the Bellarmine. So someone apparently wants to prevent contact between Loroi & Humans.

Dunno whether it's the Historians or another player we don't know yet.

Re: Page 190: K-CHUNK

Walkers! Time for earthling bacteria/viruses to win the day! Three different walker configurations, interesting. I suspect Alex will simply wake screaming from the nightmare and the other Loroi might look at him, astonished. And then notice that Alex can actually feel something of their telepathy. ...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)

The remake? Its fine. Different but I've played it a lot. A lot of the ways to win with the Wargaming made version is to control choke points. Deny access to large regions of space to the other races. Colonies behind those blocks. Increase your population and tech up to Battleships and Titans. The ...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)

Well I'm always coming here in between of Twokinds, Sandra & Woo, Gaia and Megatokyo. Since most Webcomics take some time to update, reading several in parallel just makes more sense ;)

Btw. I was a bit disappointed by the Master of Orion remake, any of you played that?

Well, I'm not paying for it, so I can't complain. Doing comics full time like ~twokinds can be financially rewarding but is also a high risk. At one time, the comic might be finished and if you apply for a job with a cv mentioning that you were drawing a webcomic, some people might reject you. Then ...

Doesn't patreon have an option to cap your total payments? So if one of your supported artists suddenly becomes very productive, you're not pushed into debts? You could therefore theoretically calculate (yourdonationfor5years)/(5year*12months/year), and put that as your monthly cap. Yes, something ...

But aren't there already annual subscription payment options in patreon?
Is this automatically extended or is there an option that the subscription ends after one year?
