Which ones are bigger?
You know, I don't have any documents with dimensions, but I'll assume that "gigantic" spiders are bigger than "giant" spiders. I'm not sure what the details are. I assume that the game designers wanted a higher-level option with better stats. Uh, giant spiders are depicted with goblins riding them, so there's that. I guess they're also not to be confused with "Arachnarok spiders", which are depicted carrying entire armies of goblins on their backs.

Ty continues on, attacking the spider next to Jekaena looking to make his way to help Carrow now...:)

Throg will freeze/attack whichever spiders seem most threatening. He will attempt to eat the frozen spiders when the warm ones are all dead.

Does this mean Jakaena can't do anything because she's Webbed?

Dorgath continues to attack, not sure of the position of everyone (I liked that diagram) but first protecting Jakaena and then Tomas.

Oh, good question. I thought so, but it's been a while, so I checked the rulebook. Yeah, once webbed, a character must break free before being able to do other stuff.

Dorgath continues to attack, not sure of the position of everyone (I liked that diagram) but first protecting Jakaena and then Tomas.
I'll keep that in mind. I wasn't sure how meaningful the diagrams felt, but if they're helpful, I'll try to use them more often.

I actually just played Warhammer Quest on my iPhone last night and yeah, Webbed characters can't do anything :) It could have been different here but probably not... as you just confirmed...

Bah, sorry for still not getting back to this. I had set aside time yesterday (so that it'd be ready for Monday morning for anyone coming back after the weekend) and then had an impromptu get-together with my family. Got to play some games of Magic with my brother, so that was cool. Anyway, despite that I planned to continue the battle against the spiders today, but found that my Google doc backup is out-of-date. So it looks like I can't until I get back home. Making note though that I'll get back to this tonight. :oops:

One of them won't thaw out until next turn. The other one is about to thaw out, but Throg is in the way, trying to chew on it like some kind of psychopath.

Ty cleans off his gear and looks around for any loose change or stuff the spiders might have dropped during combat while Throg enjoys his "snack"...:)

Well, if Throg can't eat the frozen spiders as is, he'll just have to chop them up into little popsicle-sized pieces first.

-Carrow quaffs a healing potion (10/17 Wounds).

One of the spiders thaws out and Throg immediately begins eating it. He finds that it tastes mostly like any other raw spider he's ever eaten. It maybe has a bit more of a gamey taste to it and the texture is smoother than he expected.
