Shoot froggy McKnife-in-hand. Then the rest of them. I count 8 bowelves to 4 frogs we can do this. Unless anybody points out why it won't work. Then we're screwed.

I can't believe I missed this epic thread. I normally avoid threads with "elves" and "paint adventure". Posting to watch :P

Also, don't shoot them. It's not like the bowelves are marksmen. Just keep following, wait for an opportunity to open up.

Except for the off-chance that the arrow skewers Amala it ought to work.

No more of THIIIIS meme, enjoy that a drug addled elf died to give this meme the right any meme deserves and let it fade away.

For the sake of kindness please take it off this forum and where the memes live and thrive and have little meme babies.

Enlist aid of the majestic turtle

Alright, in what (majestic) manner would you like its aid?  I'm just getting flashbacks to an elf making elephant noises right now.  Once you're done with the majesty . . .

Shoot froggy McKnife-in-hand. Then the rest of them. I count 8 bowelves to 4 frogs we can do this. Unless anybody points out why it won't work.

The wind is strong and against us?

Also, don't shoot them. It's not like the bowelves are marksmen. Just keep following, wait for an opportunity to open up.

Shooting is risky, but I don't think these concerns really cover the situation.  First, there's an amphibian man being scary with a knife right now.  Next, the wind has shown no indications of being very strong.  Lastly, let's look at the skill of the bowelves.  What is known:

10 Bowelves - armored
7 Bowelves - unarmored, skilled ambushers
10 Spearelves - shield and armored
8 untrained Spearelves
8 untrained Swordselves

Some elves were conscripted, and all the rest are "not untrained," whatever that means.  It probably means a minimum of "skilled."  The armored bowelves in the boat differ from the others in that they are not ambushers: if we are lucky, then in addition to putting that training into "Armor Use" skill, they may have even more training in bow use, so the concern they are not "marksmen" is only relative to Amala's superior skill.  Looking here:



Amala skewered the middle amphibian man (and it's predecessor on the ground), while the unarmored archers at her shoulders got half of their targets.  Now, looking here:



There is one archer ready at the prow, one elf on turtle duty, and six rowing.  If you want to fire upon the barge, a better question might be how many elves should do which task?

There is at least one frogman between amala and the elves, so there is no danger of hitting amala if we try to shoot.

Enlist aid of the majestic turtle

Take a look at the elf on turtle duty.

Look at his focus and concentration. He is clearly not idly watching the turtle, he has a plan. It's entirely possible that he has been conversing witht he turtle as it passed.

Now look at what the turtle did afterwards. Instead of running away, or diving, away from any danger, it forged its way ahead of the barge. Not only is that indicative of its immense swimming power, you can see in its beady little eyes that it has a task.

Having just proved itself as capable of outpacing the barge, it could try to swim against it, pushing it back towards the elves. Alternatively, the murky waters were able to reveal no fewer than four frogmen. Who knows what lurks beneath? It's entirely possible that a horde of turtles lies below, ready to burst forth in all their glory, and make short work of the frogmen.
