Some comments here:

- milestone 1 should be released as soon as possible now, so extra 
  features are not good now. We should concentrate on squashing bugs.
- The main problem is getting graphics for nolok done. As a miniboss 
  probably has several different actions, this will be alot of animations 
  frames to draw.
- If it's only 1 miniboss and if we want him implemented fastly then we 
  should not use a scriptfile. Don't underestimate the work needed to 
  define a nice API and scripting language for such a thing. You can 
  surely implement several minibosses in C++ in the same time.
