Limited amount of web producible by creatures
« on: October 27, 2013, 12:09:18 pm »
A recent experience has brought this idea to me. A Giant cave spider has my militia trapped by endlessly spewing webs. Literary every move it has is spewing webs, like some webbing perpetuum mobile (webbeduum mobile?).
This isn't how real-life spiders and stuff work. Their webs come from glands that are a lot simmilar to mammalian milk glands. So I suggest that large scale webbers (GCS and forgotten beasts) have some kind of body part (akin to udder) to store a bit of webbing and a gland to produce more over time, but NOT a magical machine gun of sticky stuff.

Welcome to Murdermachines. Try the gecko sauce; it's delectable and delightful, a wonderful blend of savory and spicy that makes any dish delicious without being too overwhelming.

(Warning: Do not ask about the manufacturing process for gecko sauce)

My friends are all dead,
My right foot gone, but what a
Lovely waterfall.
