Rodger that.

..Hmmm.. i reach the Basement and regret. Such a strong resistance i meet for first time. In fact i wipe out for minus time - Toll Trolls (2), Twins Grynz (4) and Guardian of Rock (2).
But now i am really in danger.
--What, brave is down?
-No, but opps are very strong:
See opps composition:
- Pharaon&Phyre - 5
- Pharaon&Phyre - 4
- Pharaon&Phyre - 5
- Amazuly Zombies 6
- Amazuly Zombies 3
-----------------------
Total - 23
OK.
I think i will win if:
Silenced 3 groups of Pharaons and fast elimination of 2 Zombies groups. Lute and Sleep do not work. But i have 2 members only who have Silence. Twill the Priest and Paco the Monk. Using Silence of Twill i am unable to cast his Armorplate and protect my team. Kmonstr the Mage and Capo the Bard use their Fireballs. Scatty the Ninja ... and Brave the Valkirye beat the foremost enemies.
So i named this small room - the Dead Room (3 x 2 meters).
Do You read this note, dear twillight?
Well, i won the battle but my Health meter of TWILL was 1 mm. high. I shouted Hurray when, new unpleasant surprise. My location was a trap and it exploded. RATS! 2 members killed.
After 3 hours of battle i eliminated these groups. But game created randomly more. New step ahead and new portions of Poison and like. 2 waves. Then 3 groups of monsters waits me, i need rest but has to enter duel.
Well, i used for first time my Save file to return to save moment.
Do You remember this room , dear Kmonster and twillight? It is at the North just before the last stop.
Ah, forget to inform You that after second Poison attack the door closes. You have to return, to visit some room and press the button on the wall to open the door.

No, i do not complain. I killed 17 gangsters with the boss in their HQ in FO alone and i will eliminate these monsters also.

Terrible fights.

using maps = cheating :whops:

But you're over 'em.

Imagine if you'd have to face the Tasmanian Devil from Cemetery Gate!

Caro Capo,

You defend the thesis that You passed 70 games without maps?
MHO is that impossible.
But let be democratic forum and ask our good mates for their opinion on:
- IS MAPS=CHEATING?

My vote is NO.
Caro Capo -> YES (SI)
Vote pls.


I will cut off my head if You pass W 6 (especially Mines section) without maps even playing 100 (with words Hundred) years.

You are mad as March Hare..:smile2:

:smile2:
No, no Devil at all!
I prefer these opps..

5 minutes later:
You're right. I get them. Simply they appeared in reduced number and ..piece of cake.
God is on my side....

PS: Why i do not see any NPC here? Are some open places to use Levitate spell?

Armorplate is best cast before the battle (at the highest level possible) since it lasts very long, this way you have protection without having to spend a round for casting it during combat.
The same applies to Enchanted Blade and Magic Screen (but not to other protective spells).

Why would using maps be cheating? It makes the game(s) easier. No need to it more difficult than it is already. That wouldn't be fun anymore.

What You will say, Caro Capo, now?:smile2:

Heavy fighting in lvl 4 of Pyramid.
Opps:
2 Queens
2 women helpers
5 Archers
Still yr humble slave is loosing side.

BTW, i bought many books from this masked woman who later is my enemy but still receive message: " You are not enlighten to...?
I tried all my members of team. Maybe the level is still low?
The books are: Book&Poisoning and Book&Blinding.
3 more i used already, but these ones..

Generally i prepared for the battle with second boss - The Queen(s) in Pyramid..
