He’s got a charging bonus to cancel that out, but also has to worry about drawing an attack of opportunity as he rushes into battle. Since he’s always on watch, he has a fatigue penalty to hit. However, he also has to figure out his modifiers before attacking. Roy figures he’s got the advantage in this one, since he’s a modern D&D fighter, and therefore has more hit points and attacks per round than someone from the Hackmaster RPG system. The two warriors charge into battle, Roy wielding his family’s Starmetal sword and Dave/El Ravager hefting his Hackmaster +12. The Knights of the Dinner Table don’t really have a leader per se, but Dave’s character El Ravager happens to be a fighter, so it seems to make sense to have him take on Roy. Roy, being the leader of the Order of the Stick, leads the charge into battle. That’s got to even things out a bit right there. Plus, the Knights don’t have Elan the bard in their group. The Order of the Stick has the advantage of numbers, but the Knights of the Dinner Table have the advantage of experience. This fight will feature several mini-bouts, as Bob, Dave, Sara, and Brian of the Knights take on Roy, Haley, Vaarsuvius, Durkan, Elan, and Belkar of the Order. The Order is not actually composed of gamers, but is actually a band of stick figure adventurers. Taking them on is the Order of the Stick, which is another gaming-based comic that primarily makes jokes about Dungeons & Dragons. Featuring the adventures of a group of hack and slash gamers, the comic has been in print for over a decade, and has also given birth to several spin-off magazines – not to mention the entire Hackmaster line of role-playing products. ![]() ![]() ![]() The Knights of the Dinner Table is probably the best gaming-related comic in print today. ![]()
