I would like to see what happened to the little elf girl (the one who's doll Fumbles was returning) by now.
Or to the MAP.
Or Duv.
Or Biscuit.

Not a big thing, with info of what happened between the last time we saw them, just a "snapshot" of what they are doing now.

I feel like we'd be best served if he doesn't do a filler at all and instead works on the comic. The sooner he's done with the current page, the sooner he can start on the next one, which would be work going toward building up a buffer. To me, that would be preferable over a small bonus.

Agreed, but I don't think that's going to happen

Duv and the MAP were covered on Patreon, for the record. If Thunt wants he can publicise them.

Thunt has already said that he doesn't want a buffer. If he has a buffer, then it interferes with him drawing live, because spoilers.

I dunno...It would be really awesome to have a world map with little dotted lines showing the "travels of ____". It would be interesting to see how the lines intersected as well as give a nice overview of how far they've traveled.

Thanks for reposting Krulle. I missed it and it's cool! [well, not coool exactly, but you know.]

Posted: **Thu Jul 06, 2017 11:50 pm**

It's cool enough to have a look at, and because it's from the beginning of Thunt's interactions with fantasy games.

Not the peak of his works, but a step towards reaching the peak.

Edit:
I did not find the time, so I'm copying the links I posted here again, as Thunt alluded on twitter to something big he may give soft news on soon. .

online drawing (streaming):
drawing Fumbles and CoN for... "something":

an even older tweet:

I wanted to find time to compile them in the twitter thread... but...

Well, Septemer the Fifth is closing anyway:

Just posted it in the G:AR thread, but I'll copy it here, because it's a "BIG" thing, and we all hope he'll be able to spend more time on drawing GobCom pages instead of G:AR cards....

You guys... I...

I think I'm finished.

@[color=red]Thunt[/color]_Goblins wrote:Of course there's more playtesting and tweaks needed to smooth it all out, but the artwork and everything is... well it's just... Complete.

@[color=red]Thunt[/color]_Goblins wrote:Danielle and I have been playing it today and it feels like a well rounded, complete game. This feels so weird.

@[color=red]Thunt[/color]_Goblins wrote:Very soon, I'll have a web page set up to keep you up to date on the game and showcase the rules and artwork, etc.

@[color=red]Thunt[/color]_Goblins wrote:I know a lot of you have a lot of questions and I want to answer them all soon. Apologies for the lack of comic updates, lately.

[Edit 29/Aug/2017]Addendum:

@[color=red]Thunt[/color]_Goblins wrote:The Goblins Card Game can be played alone. Of course it's more fun with others but you can run around alone, building your own party.

I think we'll still have to wait for 2nd of September.

Even more updates:

@[color=red]Thunt[/color]_Goblins wrote:Currently resizing all the Goblins Cards so they fit into the Tabletop Simulator format. There's like a scwillion cards. This takes forever.

@[color=red]Thunt[/color]_Goblins wrote:This card is kept out of the game, unless the Axe of Prissan is destroyed. Then it's shuffled into the encounter deck.

@[color=red]Thunt[/color]_Goblins wrote:Any Tabletop Simulator experts out there, know how to create a deck bigger than 70 cards?

Reply given by @Tam_Troll: Make two decks then put them together.
