Using the 'Harvest' option from The 'Children's Guide to Anarchy: Apocalypse Addition' I convert 5 targets to resources, but must use their base ability in the process. 2 goblins use 'Die Horribly' and 3 cats use 'Catsplode'. I gain 2 points in metalcrafting and 3 points in boncrafting.

What do you like more?





The first is with a font I made, the second with DF's.
My font has a black boder on every character, though with a black background it is invisible.
Plus, my font lacks some of the less common characters, though, like the ē, I would make them as needed.

(Unlike earlier times I illustrated a game of tacticus, I now have a handy flood-fill function, so it is even easier than before)

Gah, I really hoped that that was the solid vertical line...

Oh, it wasn't a pipe character?

I was going by visual recognition, so if it should be solid, I'll just swap it out for the solid line one.

Everyone should use the same font that I use!
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Because that will make it easier for me to recognise stuff!

Oh, and it was meant to be the 'bar' symbol, as that is the resource generated by goblins, as stated in 'The Demon's Guide to Culinary Delights'.

I use the rules for off-map artillery as stated in General von Baron's Guide on Long-Range Warfare [p. 479] to place a mortar turret to the right of the play field.

I also use Sir Helvetica Andale's Manual on Font Streamlining to increase readability of the playing field using an alternate tileset and the Courier typeface.

I fire under the elves with the mortar.
Being elves, the shot immediately becomes magma, as per the Rulebook on Dealing With Elves, Chapter 2: Magma, Section 4.
