> Quick Strike: 6 Dex (cost is 8)+ 6 Melee/pole (starts to cost 7 pts), skill
points per point = 3. Gives a chance to add an extra AP point per turn, and
makes you act faster in combat. A bit less than 5% chance per point. A
good skill, one you should buy some points in for everyone. Don't try to
train in it for everyone, though.

> Quick Action (initial cost- 1). Gives you a small chance to attack twice,
and increases your attack order. A nice, cheap skill- at about level 5-6,
you'll get lots of double attacks.

The surface world is ruled by the Empire. Its power is absolute. Its control is unchallenged. And, as a soldier of the Empire, you have a good, comfortable life ahead of you. But then a rebel named Vahkohs tried to assassinate the Empress, and everything went wrong for you.

The villain fled somewhere into Avernum, an underworld nation of eccentrics, misfits, and barely civilized monsters, most of whom hate the Empire. And that is where you are going. You must find Vahkohs, while dealing with spies, betrayal, and assassins at every turn.

The enemy is waiting for you. You will only survive his attention with the help of these strange cave dwellers. If, of course, they don’t kill you first.

It seems that every week I make a post saying that irony has died. And every one of those posts has a quote in it. And every quote comes from the very same Spiderweb member.

Hi, Iffy. *waves*

After considering the above information, I conclude that the Spiderweb community generally isn't very well off with the opposite sex.

Now, I know this starts to really go outside of the principles of Exile but would be interesting to see in a RPG... If we can tear down a wall, I think we should be able to build/fix one too. I've often wanted to be able to build my own fort in a RPG game, just to have one. This would especially be useful in a remake of Exile that had the world map set-up of Avernum 4, where the towns and outdoors were one map, and there were various roaming monsters and you couldn't ever find a good place to rest. You could then build a fort and have a place you could defend yourself and hang out at(kinda like the house in Exile 3, but built where ever you wanted). Then you could hire people to do mundane tasks(such as make weapons) for some added fluff(kinda like in Skies of Arcadia for the Game Cube and Dreamcast). While probly not all that useful, it's still a nice concept. 'Specially since you don't need fancy 3D graphics to make a more interactive game.
