Orcs Must Die 3 #4 – Stop that Kobold
For playing we goofed this one up for the first time, one of us missed a kobold when it ran. But I think we did all right otherwise.

So there’s textures for when water hits you now? Fancy. And no, glue in a tube has nothing to do with rift research.

As we continue on, I am sticking with the accurate, lesser-rate-of-fire bow. I kind of regard it as a DMR at this point.
And to throw shade, I think the elven archer from OMD:Unchained had a better fire rate.

As a lovely surprise, my brother got me Orcs Must Die 3 for my birthday. The result? That new crowd that loved our co-op videos can now get more of it. I’m slowly working with him to get footage, and uploading it as able. So do stick around for those!

For awhile now, I’ve been playing with various sci-fi scenarios in my head. When I saw this post, I decided to give a stab at an alternate universe I had parsed in my head. I’ve used this same setting in a few other prompts I’ve written, usually revolving around a freelance mercenary group with their own troop carrier.

Victoria Tellison, Armadillo Head Scientist
——
I’ve always wondered why mercenaries with a troop carrier wanted to hire me. Why did they need a scientist like me? Didn’t their tech wizard bug queen know things? Or just look it up on the extranet?
Looks like that was changing.
The last two months Armadillo had been visiting a terraformed planet on the Outer Rim. Some radical space pope went back in time centuries ago, stole people from Earth from the 1800s and set them up to live there. Why? Aside from her own enjoyment, nobody knows.
The title of this prompt struck me a few ways, and decided to add a bit of intrigue and other stuff to it. It originally was meant to have more than one part, which I unfortunately was never able to finish. I’ll need to do that someday.

Huschens is an Easter Egg nod-off to Angry Cops.

I wrinkled my eyebrows at the person who interrupted me, clearly not enjoying be pulled away from my drink. It was Gunnery Sergeant Huschens; clean chiseled face, camo fatigues and a drill instructor hat. At first his voice sounded official and very commanding, but upon hearing me answer affirmatively, changed to that that half New Jersey accent, ushering me with an informal hand wave.
I sigh heavily, grabbing my cup of coffee and making my way across the hangar.
When I opened my Discord server months ago for buddies, my pal Taranava had made the suggestion I draw my bug girls as baristas, one of them brandishing weapons. I loved the concept and obliged recently, and have now pronounced the two as the server’s official mascots. I’ve yet to give them names, but I think they’re a bit too inspired by Gura and Ina from Hololive.
An epic SupCom match that my brother and I played back several years ago. He dumped me a bunch of footage near New Years, and only am now getting around to converting and getting anything usable online (I’m bad, I know).
This was from his point of view, and had saved it because it was worthy of a video. And I agree. With nukes being chucked at us, we stood against all odds and came out on top.
On a minor note, this map is a death trap for some reason. I’ve gotten real rusty on this game the past two years, and almost every time I’m on this map solo, keep flunking and dying via experimental.

A long time ago my DnD buddy Karomaz had a concept for a game, involving a tiefling paladin and his kobold alchemist. This was always just a joke doodle for months, but when I got that post-birthday art streak, took a proper stab at the idea.
.
This is tiefling paladin Lillith, Champion of Calistra under the Patfhinder 2e rules. And her sidekick is Flakk, a kobold who scraps with dirty tactics. What future awaits for them? We’ll find out and see.
Not going to lie, I often enjoy hopping in on certain writing prompts, and while I know the OP wanted one thing, go along with in a completely different direction. In this case, humanity gets a message to “be quite” instead of “be quiet.”
Very short, but very rofl.

And it was easy for humanity to be quite. You see, they were quite accurate in their starship development, sciences…even simple things such as placing a shopping mall on Mars.
They remained quite accurate, quite scientific, quite humorous, quite determined. The quite never stopped.
When they finally reached those that had responded to them, those aliens facepalmed. How they wished their scientist learned how to spell. Humanity was supposed to stay quiet, not stay quite. Now they were doomed.
But there was nothing to worry about. Because humanity had been quite for centuries, it was time for them to be quite again. Quite defensive, quite victorious, quite imposing.
And it worked!
Now as humanity spreads across the galaxy centuries later, the legend is passed down. They are the race that took the warning of “be quite”.
