give up or use a computer.

people have been trying to do that for over 30 years.

I take offence to the picture.

The crab should totally be winning.

Stupid cuttlefish.

Maybe use little dice for each creature, indicating its height level? Awkward, but viable.

>crab

It's a working title, we are currently considering:

Comrade Crab of Crustacean Central Command and the Catastrophic Cephalapod-Catalysed Catastrophe

What do you think?

>>7044285

This.

A crab's armor and grabbing claws should be able to take on a cuttlefish. All they're good for is running away anyway.

You need something like a collapsible pointer attached to a base. Something where you can just raise or lower the model/counter as need be.

Cuttlefish are awesome, all those limbs, the agility, high INT, plus escape artist? Fuck off, crabfags.

>>7044300
I appreciate the alliteration, but using catastrophe twice seems like taking the easy way out. Chaos instead perhaps?

Hmm...attempting to model three-dimensional combat must be frustrating. I couldn't blame you guys if you were feeling...

...a bit CRABBY.

Or build multiple levels with plexi if you're feeling ambitious.

...aaaand I'm out for the night.

>>7044309
Oh, my bad the first instance of Catastrophe should be cataclysmic

>>7044306

Man, I figured it would only be a matter of time before a cuttlefag showed up.

Listen, intelligence and limbs don't mean jack in a fight if you don't have any actual means of attack besides being the squishiest damn motherfucker three species over.

What the fuck, just use a token with plusses and minuses. Spelljammer rules have a system for it.
God damn, it's not that hard.

>>7044292
This.

If using ranged attacks count distance adding distance from target to differance in elevation. (ex. Cuddlefish is a elevation 5 and is 5 hexs away from the crab at elevation 1[as low as it can be as the ground is lvl 0]. Distance is 5+4=9)

>>7044322
Good stuff.

>>7044328
As if anyone under the age of 30 has ever heard of spelljammer.

>>7044325
Hey yknow what crabfag I can just turn you upside down and leave you in a chasm. Then I can dart down and use my beak at +5 and nip off a small leg.
Youll fail your INT check and lay on your back flailing, meanwhile I dart in wth hit and run beakings till I wear you down.
YOU ARE just a power gamer dumping all your points into two stats, armor and ppinch. yes, armor and pinch are useful, NO ONE IS DENYING THAT.

>>7044342
Im just saying, he could go to /rs/ and steal the rules for it .

Hey man, if you didn't have us cuttlefish, the industrial revolution would totally have never happened. Fucking crabfags are a bunch of socialists.

>>7044347

Oh, like cuttlefish are any better. Nothing but arms and brains. Yes, you have a beak.

Whoop-de-fucking do.

You know who else has a beak? No one, because they're fucking worthless. And how do you think you're going to get close enough to use it or your worthless little arms?

All it takes is one snip to crush your tiny, worthless body.

>>7044347
Pinch is the best stat you fag.

Cuddle fish wins. It just sets up and elaborate trap than it can easily trick the crab into.

How does it feel to know anything you do will further my goals? It's not like you sheep have the brains to throw starfish on me.

>>7044394
Pinch through this you fag.

>>7044422
You only think that we aren't aware of your plans. Haven't you ever heard the saying "Keep your friends close and anemones closer"?

>>7044422
You can't even move.

>>7044428

Already did. Where do you think did they got the bone from?

That's right. This guy.

>>7044433
Giiiiihihihihihihi!

That saying has always sounded risky though. But, if it works, I guess you just gotta crab life by the balls!

GIIIIIIIIIIIIHIHIHIHIHI!

>>7044467
You're going to have a hell of a crabby audience if you keep this up.

Fuck your shit cuttlefishfags

Crabs can and will take on much larger beaked creatures than your silly little retarded octopuses with no hesitation.

Pic related, it's a baddass crab showing no fear, even in the face of death.

>>7044467
>crab life by the balls
That advice has always served me well in a pinch!

>>7044492

Ten minute penalty. Joke was done, and better.

That's what we want you to think.

By the way, anemones are actually pretty mobile. They make a weird, slow backflip.

>>7044433
Ha, do you think so? I have tricked crabs into carrying me around, like the slave race they are!

On a side note, whenever I post a boxer crab I am reminded of how its legs look like striped thighhighs and get a boner from imagining a boxer crab girl.

>>7044503
You'll have to pinch faster to catch me by the telson, I'm afraid.

Do you have a magnet?

Oh hey there cuttlefags, don't mind me.
I'm just being my normal ol' crab self, still living on dry land instead of collapsing into a pathetic glooby pile of shit and dieing.

>>7044502
Ohhh, that was bad! I'm shellshocked! But it's fine, I can take anything you can shell out.

GIIIIIIIIIIHIHIHIHIHI!

>>7044521

I don't see your point.
That was tiny.

>>7044522
Fuck your stealth shit, have pride in your colours!

>>7044528
>gnollshit

CRAB BATTLE!

>>7044536
>saging

>>7044543
Why do you even bother to post with a trollcode? Oh, wait, I answered that myself.

Curl up and die, would you kindly?

>>7044546
Crab battle!

>>7044532

Silly colourcrabfags.

Can't you see how much fun us stealth crabs are having?
Look at us, we're all so jovial and happy.

We don't need flashy colours.

>>7044528
Don't expect me to butter you up with praise. I like to get straight to the meat of things. To put it bluntly, you laugh but I can see you going red in the face. Why, I bet you're positively steamed!

>>7044521

Hah, look at that bitch run.

>>7044512

And man, shut up anenomefag. You sit where I tell you. Isn't it bad enough that I can pick you up and walk off with you that you've got to go and act like a big shot?

By the way, how's Nemo doing? He got all his stuff moved in yet?

>>7044536
>>7044546

Your pathetic and oh so very pointless dispute with a tripfag is interrupting our awesome crab thread, please desist.

>>7044566

>>7044546
I think you're the only one being trolled here...

That said, (An din the vain of undersea puns,) Tide like to congratulate you on successfully scuttling a fun thread! Nice job!

GIIIIIHIHIHIHI!

>>7044564
>>7044566

Huh... Crabhighfivemind.

That doesn't happen often.

>>7044586
I know, I didn't saw it coming when I put up the one with High Five.

This is my fapping arm.

>>7044568
I may get angry, b'oil never get steamed!

Oh, and for the record, you can lob a punster, but it is in fact very hard to pun a lobster.

GIIIIIIIIIIIHIHIHIHI!

>>7044604

This is MY fapping arm!

>>7044617
I swear those puns get worse every day.

>>7044581
>>7044585
I even wish I could facepalm correctly because of him.

>>7044644
I'm sorry Putin, we know you love bear puns, but it just happen to be crabby puns.

>>7044656
They're just so beary hilarious, you know? Fur some reason they never get old.

Love crabs. Would keep one as a pet.

How does one pet crabs?

>>7044712
Careful application of a small hammer.

>>7044617
Pun a lobster? That's nothing. Want a real trick? Go tuna fish. Try and get 'em to sing on-Key and they go all belly-up on ya. I mean, if you have the talent for it you may as well be a brain sturgeon.

>>7044712
Only once.

>>7044712

You stroke their undersides until they foam at the mouth, then flip them over and allow them the instinctive eight seconds of ecstatic jumping that results.

Unless if it's a mid-western pacific ghost crab, in which case you stroke the edge of the topmost piece of carapace with a rusty nail.

OPERATOR shrips was here.

crabs and cuttlefish suck ass.

Best title I've ever heard.

In the grim darkness of the future, there are only crabs.

You know, I've come baack to this thread later in the day, it's still here, the puns have only gotten wors-- better, and it pleases me.

Unfortunately I cannot find the crab pic I am looking for... oh, wait, there it is.

Don't mind me, just making this thread /tg/ related again.
