I'm pretty sure that Hoodmongers are able to block your attacks, and Henchmen 800 aren't.

Proposed answer: "If Rayman attempts to shoot a weak shot at the Hoodmonger, he will block it with his gun. The Henchman 800 will not block the weak shot, they will still take damage."

Heh, no point me editing it out now, since it's definitely been seen. I'll be sure not to do that again, if another wrong answer is given.

Since we're on a new page, I'll quote the next question again:
Master wrote: Team A:
Score: 2
Q4 - The average Hoodmonger and Henchman 800 have a lot in common. They have 3 HP, shoot normal projectiles, and some move about Rayman to flank. However, despite these similarities, the Hoodmonger has a capability which make him a much more formidable foe, what is this capability?

Team B:
Score: 3
Q4 - What do Antitoons and Black Lums have in common?

You have until 9:00 23.07.2017 UST+0 to answer. Note however that since I'm in Uni, I might not have a new question up straight away.

Just a slight nitpic: do turbines cause air currents, or harness them? I would have thought the latter

As for this question, I agree with Ray and dutch

I'm sure they harness them, but I'd imagine it causes air currents within. Robo-Pirate machinery doesn't always make sense, it's a cartoony game, after all.

Also, Ray, don't forget to quote me when answering, I was active at the time, but I might not be the next time you submit.

Actually, I was telling Ray502 to quickly edit his post before you would see it. :fou:

Heh, even if he did, because he was responded to, there would be an edit message under the new submission. I'd have known, and discarded the answer.

Fair point, though given the one answer only rule, I thought it'd be implied. Still, you're right that there is a slight loop-hole so I'll patch that in.
In the meantime, be sure to continue discussing your answers!

As for the question, well, they're both small, round, usually come in groups, have the ability to fly. The black Lums in R3 GBA are very similar to Antitoons in how they can fly towards Rayman in certain sections. I'm however wondering if Master is looking for some different answer than this...

When I say common, do I mean absolutely common, or similarly common, I wonder?

Our team is going to go with: "If Rayman attempts to shoot a weak shot at the Hoodmonger, he will block it with his gun. The Henchman 800 will not block the weak shot, they will still take damage."

Correct. Indeed, Hoodmonger are capable of deflecting Rayman's attacks, forcing the player to move sideways to ensure hits connect. It's a small detail, but I feel it's one of the ways in which Rayman 3 makes its combat more dynamic compared to Rayman 2.

Team A now has 3 points, Team B has plenty of time left still to give their answer.

Wait, it's just Antitoons and Black Lums? Somehow when I first read it I thought caterpillars were mentioned as well. I'm going totally dotty…
How about that they're both dark equivalents of something? Electoons and Red Lums respectively? I don't know…

I thought I saw that too, I think Master's just trying to be a sneaky sneakster

Truth be told, the detail I thought of, I thought applied to the Caterpillars as well, but then I realised it didn't.

Right, I'll be turning off soon. Team B has 8 and half hours remaining to send their answer.

Additions and black lums are the same size, and the creation of evil.

In the GBA version can't Black Lums be eliminated in one hit, like antitoons (and some but not all caterpillars)?
