Fast strip deployment is a happy thing. Where this is going is less so.

New one is up.

Not what I expected from a cleric.
Ditzes manage to get into every profession somehow. Fantasy professions are no different, I'd imagine.
Which is wierd, since Wisdom is the ability of common sense and Clerics.
Ah, she's a Favored Soul.

I have a feeling that there are subtle hints that the elf and her tigers showed up somewhere in a strip some years ago.

No, just references to how she's from a Kickstarter backer ("5000 bucks to get stuck here", waiting two or three years, money that could've been stuck on a nice cameo, etc.).  V's deja vu comment refers back to this strip, I believe.

This is getting interesting.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

So the parts where the vampire slipped up almost revealing the charade were, in fact, part of a bigger charade? My brain hurts. It really does.

Hey everyone. Quick question, I stopped reading a while back and would like to get caught back up, but I can't find an index of the comic, if it exists.

A) Is there an index?
and/or
B) Any idea about how far back I should go? The group was on an airship in a thunderstorm, last I recall. V put out a fire and was shielding the ship from lightning strikes.

So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

You didn't miss a ton.  Here's the start of that arc (your strip is a couple after that) and the index is here.

Thanks! Yeah the names-only kinda means nothing to me, I was hoping for an MSPA-style graphical one per arc or something. Oh well.

Good idea. I'm hammering out an index that is very heavily derived from the one on giantitp.com. It shouldn't be too hard.

Quick question though: Should I put Strip 1 at the top and the latest one at the bottom, or should I put the latest one at the top and Strip 1 at the bottom? Either way, I'd still have links above the index to those two.

E: Second question: Should I break things up more than just by book? If so, thoughts on how?

I'm a fan of the homestuck map Here. The format gets dumb later on, but in general the larger chunks are divided into thematic scenes.

To convert that to the current OotS plot, the current book would be split into the airship segment, the first Tinkertown segment with Haley's old grudge being settled, and the current chapter with the Cleric's convention.

I think, anyway. I don't remember much from my last archive binge however many months ago.

Looks like Andi is going to be a problem. She doesn't seem to respect her new captain.
