A flaming weapon does damage anyway to fire-immune creatures in BoE. Did he get it fixed for Avernums? EDIT: (Specifically, Blades of Avernum. I could probably find out for Av1, but it'd take awhile.) [ Friday, April 16, 2004 12:46: Message edited by: Dasar Prop ] -------------------- "Oh, North Wind, why frighten others?

Heck yeah, there's a few good scenarios in there. King David might provide some material, or some of the old-stuff, from like Chronicles and Judges. Lots of stuff in those ones.

Indents? ? Oh, just the "completeness" of it. I'm a spiffy when it comes to completeness. Not that it matters, really. Just the lack of HTML tags at beginning and end and stuff.

The Nephilim (or Kitties, as I prefer) were almost certainly named by the Empire, or by themselves. If named by the Empire, I feel it's quite likely that Jeff intended to use both definitions as a way to convey what was thought of them. If named by themselves?well, then he probably just needed a name. I don't know much about Nephils referring to themselves much in the Exile series, because they don't talk to you much. -------------------- "Oh, North Wind, why frighten others?

Anyone notice that if (quoteth the UA) "By the time I die I will have classed everyone in the world as an idiot, and as a result, nobodies's opinion will matter to me." then he classifies himself as one?

You could do it so that it creates a new monster when it dies, an encounter perhaps to add talk. And you could clean up any blood or mess left. Of course, I'm thinking in BoE terms, because…*sniff*…I use a PC. Anyway, that's the simple way to do it. You'd have to lower it's max health, though. EDIT: Well, if it's one monster, it ought to be easy, just by using a constant for the health. If it's multiple types, however, that would require a more complex system, like the one you're talking about.
