I'd use lots and then edit a SDF so that I would have actually used none. Seriously though, I don't know if I'd use them.

Okay, had an idea last night, but dunno how workable it is... Basically, I would like to know if there is a way to record what kind of damage a PC does to a bad guy.. Example - party x always uses a particular spell against the bad guys, who for arguments sake are bandits. Now, after a while the bandits realise that they keep being pummelled by the same spell, and make armour to counter it. So if it was Ice Lances, for example, the bandits make armour that would give a resistance to cold damage, and so on. In order to do this, I'd need to record how often the party uses a particular attack type (probably in a series of SDFs), and adjust monster stats accordingly. And I can't see a way of doing this... Any ideas? And if I'm right and there isn't a way, any workarounds that you might think of would help :P Thanks. -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?

I have put no thought into resolutions at all, which is never surprising. Erm, now I'm on the spot though, I think I should to try and aspire to actually do something productive every day. As for quitting bad habits, etc, what would be the point? I'd only start them again in a moment of uncharacteristic weakness... -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start?

With all respect, you people aren't getting my point at all. Healing magic in the Geneforge world AS IS is a shaping skill. I know. But, if shaping was replaced, or never existed, which people mentioned elsewhere in the thread, my point is that there is a possibilty that some other school of magic would develop it's own ways of healing, like the priest spell in Avernum. Without shaping, or using essence. -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go? Who do you need to know?

I think I should clear this up.. I HAVE played all the Geneforge games, with the exception of the newest addition. What I was getting at was the point that healing magic exists without Shaping. Shapers may use essence to heal others, but did the Sholai? And, what about healing magic in Avernum? What's to say that with the lack of any shaping, that kind of healing magic wouldn't be developed? -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?
