Good luck having that skill at this point in the game. If you can manage it, I salute you. In fact, if you had all four of your generics as Engineers and all four had Catapult, you could win this fight in one turn if:

A) You had somehow endured all of the foregoing fights with a bunch of no-skill engineers in your party.
B) You somehow got off the slow-ass catapult attacks before the enemy party ripped your engineers to pieces with their faster and still rather deadly attacks.

In short, Catapult is no longer >all.

(I just found out that having a party of all archers makes the game pretty easy. Particularly if you have a tankarcher (Archer + Heavy Crossbow + "Let them have it!" + Might of Kryllor + Charge = hitting bosses for like 900-1000 damage a pop. Annnndddd....as a result, Charge has a cooldown now.)

I don't think the size difference is THAT jarring. (The archers could do with being a bit smaller.)
I know I mentioned this before, but the ASoIaF naming conventions are really bothering me. What exactly was the reason for lifting so many character names from it? I can understand if it's just one or two characters, but you kind of went a bit overboard with it.

I do understand that ASoIaF isn't as super popular as something like Final Fantasy in this community so a lot of people won't notice. But to those who have read the books (and the number is definitely increasing due to the whole HBO thing), it just comes across as really tacky seeing all of these characters with names from that series. Personally, it kind of affected the way I viewed some of the characters. For example, when I first saw that one of your main characters was named Janos, I kind of immediately hated him.

Anyway, I'm not trying to be offensive at all. Just a bit curious is all.

There is a Song of Ice and Fire character named Janos? Janos and Horace are actually two of the names that (to the best of my knowledge) I DIDN'T lift, along with Bethany. There could be characters by those names in George R.R. Martin's work....it is a big series.

In general the main "lifting" was grabbing the names of unimportant Ice and Fire characters for a few NPCs and mostly the random name generator. Explaining why I did this is a bit complex...

1. I initially did it to generate names for NPCs in my D&D campaign setting....and when you're GMing, originality doesn't matter, just entertaining your players.
2. I made this game partially based on the D&D campaign setting.

So yeah. That is how it came about.
