Line 22: {{tropenamer}} * [[Cattle Punk]]: Originally aan in-universe roleplaying game by the creators of Hackmaster, and known for its lethality. The game still manages to fit all the definitions in the trope. {{tropelist}} Line 41: * [[Analogy Backfire]]: In ''Java Joint'', Tank says that he is "as serious as Garrison Keillor", apparently not realising that Garrison Keillor is a humorist. * [[Animated Adaptation]]: Fan Andrew Babb did a series of nicely-produced Flash cartoons, currently preserved [http://www.youtube.com/user/Kumeelyun on Youtube]. * [[Apotheosis ]]: Happens in the campaign: After Bob's character Knuckles III dies, his next character (Knuckles IV) manages to get Knuckles III promoted to [[Phantasy Spelling\|gawdhood]]. The promotion appears genuine, and temples to Knu-Kyle-Ra are now a recurring feature in the comic. * [[Artifact of Doom]]: Flak Jack Monty's infamous twenty-sider, "Fitz". [[Cursed with Awesome\|Cursed]] with vampiric luck (pretty much useless to a player, but a Doomsday weapon in the hands of a GM), this die goes through [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder\|quite the history]] after the Knights swipe it. * [[Art Shift]]: In "Hounded" in #183, Sara has a dream about the Untouchable Trio Plus One. The dream is illustrated using art from ''Knights of the Dinner Table: Illustrated'' by the Fraim Brothers. Line 50 ⟶ 51: Also, ''never'' question the existence of Brian's "girlfriend" Alexis. And if you happen to think women can't/shouldn't be gamers, keep that opinion under your hat around Sara. Don't mess with Chelsie unless you want to experience the business end of a Hackmaster +12. * [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Don't push Sara too far..; she'll push back hard. And then there was the time her character became evil... ** B.A. gets moments like this. * [[BFS]]: The Hackmaster +12.▼ * [[Bizarrchitecture]]: Tic Tac Taco and its giant sombrero. ▲* [[~~BFS~~Blade of Fearsome Size]]: The Hackmaster +12. * [[Blinding Bangs]]: Newt and Brian. * [[Break the Haughty]]: Stevil being forced to dance for 36 hours straight in prison. When he finally gets back to his game, Newt plays ABBA's "Dancing Queen" through a pair of portable speakers attached to his walkman. Newt is promptly wasted and is made to wear "the Hubcap of Shame". * [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: Brian is a socially awkward man [[Girlfriend in Canada\|with a made-up girlfriend]], but is incredibly good at being a [[Rules Lawyer]]. * [[Casanova Wannabe]]: Jonny Kizinski. * [[The Caper]]: Switch, and a number of other criminals attempt to rob a warehouse. Bob helps them out, thinking it's an RPG. Line 277 ⟶ 278: * [[The Voice]]: B.A.'s mom (although she has appeared in some of the non-canon strips by the Brothers Grinn [and is ''smokin' hawt!'']) * [[Wax Museum Morgue]]: "The Stone Menagerie" * [[We Win Because You ~~Didn't~~Did Not]]: Brian wins a bet against Stevil this way. * [[What Did I Do Last Night?]]: According to Jolly, this is the end result of drinking Mojo Dave's mojo juice. * [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Subverted repeatedly for comic effect. [[Character Filibuster\|Even when B.A. stops the game]] to rant at length about [[You Bastard\|what evil bastards his players are being]], his players (except for Sara) ignore him. ** A more straight example comes when Brian is called out for exploiting Bob's addiction to tabletop gaming even when he's in a bad financial situation. * [[Who Names Their Kid "Dude"?]]: Johnny Kizinski names his youngest son [[The Lord of the Rings\|Frodo]] after convincing his wife that it was the name of a relative of his from 'the old country' who died fighting the Russians. * [[Women Are Wiser]]: Sara throughout the series (though BA is not far behind her). Especially pronounced in Sheila's relationship with Bob. * [[Worthy Opponent]]: Despite the combative relationship between players and DM, the Knights ultimately see B.A. as one of the few gamemasters who will push them to their limits without being unfair or tyrannical.
