It is time.

It's time for brave to stand up and fight. To meet the challenge of this nice saga.
After years of training and gaming, after 64 game wins brave has the muscles and brains ...and good friends to start.

Before 5 min. Rubicon River was crossed.
As Russian said: За нами Москва!
(The only Moscow is after us.)

Well, I installed the game.
No German version. Sry Kmonster.
I created Virtual OS, namely XP Pro under 7. In fact i have real XP, but decided to try this famous Virtual option.
I started the game and entered Hero configuration.

Even i strictly follow the words of Caro Capo (No any instructions, yoga)
with all my respect to Caro Capo i will stop and very, very precisely will select my heroes.
They will be named as follow:
First character - Scatty, then
Kmonster, Capo, Paco the Great, twillight and...and... the brave.
All other mates will be included in W 7 or 8. If this game does not allow usage of current configuration further.

The only thing to solve is my small-sized screen under XP.

So, dear AB mates, brave needs Your morale support, little help and... wishes to win.

Thank everyone who enter this discussion.

Good luck Yoga !
Unless you cheat take your time rolling your characters and place the attributes wisely, starting attributes do make a difference. Do you want some character or party suggestions ?

My deep thanks, dear twillight and Kmonster.

Friend in deed, is friend indeed.

Dear Kmonster,
any help You think a very novice will need in this game is welcome.
Of course, pls do not start from Adam and Eve. You know me better that i know myself.
As You probably know i am genetically created as Fighter aka Barbarian.
My weak zone is Spells, Y'now.
So little advices in this direction will warm my hearth.
Danke!


OFF
Because today is a special day for yoga and all BG (We have referendum with only Q: Need Bulgaria electric energy created by Nuclear station?) i will go to vote. Of course NO, Nein, He.
We read newspapers and forums and know the answer given by wise Germans of the same Q.

Well well, brave Yoga is on the march again I'm honored that you named one of the characters after me.
As you prefer the melee/fighter option, here's one - if there was already a Ninja character available in W6, I'd advise to take one. Don't remember exactly but depending on race selected, you'd need at least 18 points for one. So this can take quite some time. And I would also advise not only to save the Ninja when you get one, but afterwards also try to roll one with 24 points - if you have the patience, because that many points can take a very long time to roll.
Take Fairy Ninja only if you plan to use Cane of Corpus in Wizardry VII / VIII. My personal opinion - not worth it, since it's cursed and you can't switch to throwing weapons during combat without very much hassle. I prefer rather a Human or Elf Ninja (lower points requirement - bonus points for attributes), but it's really up to you.

Anyway, good luck amigo!

Let me know how Capo works in your party yoga

My dear mates, here we go,
Especialy for Caro Capo, as follow

1. Scatty - Dragon Valkyrie
2. Kmonster - Dwarf Monk
3. Capo - Felpurr Ninja
4. Paco the Great - Elf Bard
5. twillight - Rawulf Priest
6. brave - Faene mage

Why Felpurr for Caro Capo?
Because
The Felpurr is one of the easier races to roll for a Ninja at character creation – 15.
The Ninja has longer way to develop, but once Capo reaches his stride, he can become a great fighter with Martial Arts; he will inflict critical hits; Spells - cloud and lingering damage; so he becomes an Alchemist+. There is no reason to complain anyway, that he is not strong as a Monk with Martial Arts.
No, my Capo Ninja will not be my thief, but my Bard (aka Paco – long ago I complained why these nice men have so similar names and I suspect they are hidden bros ).
I plan to develop other skills with Ninja, avoiding thieving.

But Caro Capo if You do not like this character, please tell me.
No any problem to be replaced with Mage of brave!?
SI?

I will not hurry now because I do not want to repeat my mistakes with Arena (2 times wrong characters – No very, very important Passwall spell) and Ultima UW (thanks to Master Scatty I took the correct way).

The other characters have the right to ask me why this position?
The 6-members team is democratic unit and every one is ready to fall down with honor but to save the project.

Gute Nacht, my voluntares

You couldn't know but at my early RPG campaigns I always chose priest class.

Did you now nuclear energy is the most efficient, most environmentally-friendly, most safe source of electrical energy?

Well, if you there vote no, the more WE can have I think...

So I'm a dwarf monk. May I tell you how I want to be ?

I'd like to put all level up skillpoints into theosophy until it's 54 for some casting skills and all following skill points into kirijitsu for more critical hits, no point will be wasted for other skills.
In combat I want to train hiding and attack from the shadows for double damage. I don't need any weapons, my kicks and punches are deadly. Only after I've improved my hand and feet skill to 100 I might use a little wand or dagger in my second hand to try something new.



Some advice for your character:

Fairy is by far the best race for mage, I'm jealous . Make sure your character has 16 vitality, else he won't get the faster spell regeneration, extra mana and be very vulnerable, not worthy bearing the name of the brave.
If you have less than 16 vitality I recommend rerolling for a roll of 17-18, raising vitality to 16 and putting all the 6-7 points left into strength for carrying capacity (comfortable) or maybe all 6-7 into piety instead for a very little extra mana later in the game, don't split them up.
I'd raise only thaumaturgy at level up to get the deadly high level spells as soon as possible.

Don't bother trying to roll a bonus higher than 18, it's almost impossible. I managed to roll 18 over 20 times but never a higher number so you might be 100 years old before getting it.
