Blades question in Blades of Avernum

I bourght E3 ages ago but only recently i decided to buy A1-3. I think that Avernum is slightly better.

Also is that just because there are more scenarios atm for BoE?

I have the Avernum series so far i have really enjoyed them, i was looking at buying Blades of Avernum. I didnt see that there was any option of gettingit cheaper unless i already own BoE.
Is it really worth it?
are the scenarios any good?
How many are there?

Thanks

what party do you use? in The Avernum Trilogy
Warrior
Member # 6218

I am not sure why, i have always used the same party...
i always use:
Slith Warrior/archer (pole, elite warrior and fast on feet)
Nephil warrior/archer/theif (melee, fast on feet/nible fingers
Mage/priest (natural mage/good educatoin)
Preist/mage (natural mage)

I find that both casters by endgame have the best spells from each group which means mega SP because if you have lvl 18+ mage, lvl 18+ priest and 10+ intelligence = ALOT
Also i give no melee skills at all to my casters, apart from some anti-encumburance skills (defence/hardiness)

Archers are so useful, i find great benefit from having both warriors being adept in them, they cost nothing as you pick up plenty of good arrows.

i think that i should try something new, this page has given me a few ideas.......This always happens, just as i am half way through a game i decide that i want a different character line-up, or i want to play with 2 etc. and then i end up stoping :(

i have a question, for the people that know or the beta testers, A4 will develop fully in caves or it has the surface area too?
I certainly hope it involves going up to the surface, i thourght that the surface world was cool there are still how many continents to explore?

Though i guess we have to save some things for A5, A6, A7.........

This is one of those things that was changed between Avernum 3 and BoA. In A3, it's actually Hardiness that reduces your encumbrance, not Defence.
Thankyou, i think that will help me alot, after Avernum 1 and 2 i decided that Hardiness was useless and never have put like no points in it.

I was told that raising your defence reduces your encumburance....
Some of my fighters have defence up to 8 or so and still if you have encumburance=5 then you get AP penelty.

So i cannot use plate mail without a penelty or a can use chainmail and then no helmet, what do most people do??

i was wondering because i know that in Exile if you have high defence then you will not get penelties in AP for wearing big armour, i was wondering if there is something like this in Avernum.....

most obnoxious dungeon in avernum/exile trilogy in The Avernum Trilogy
Warrior
Member # 6218

I specifically remember when i first registered E3 and tried to do the entire game without walkthru but I gave up in disgust when it came to Golem Factory. Becuase those bloody golems do massive damage and i just spent so long (and was probably not leveled up enough).
I have nightmares about it still.......

i personally think it would be really cool if Jeff incorporated more variety in the battles on the world map.
Example: Like in Avernum 2 when you are in Empire lands and if you fight a blockade then there is actually a blockade instead of the enemies conveniently running out of their fortified position to fight you.

I guess that would mean a better AI for monsters, but the AI could do with some improving anyway.....

Anyone else notice the jokes here? in The Avernum Trilogy

I found a really good one, somewhere in Avernum 2, i cant remember i think in south west Avernum.
There is a Woman named Eddy and she has been kicked down into Avernum with her friend Patsy for being too loud or something (anyone seen the show Absolutely Fabulous would understand)

:( **** i just realised that someone else posted this one

thanks, i guess i missed out on Sulfras's treasure.

I hope that i finished the game. i did the 3 major quests, i couldnt be stuffed going thru doing all the minor quests that i most likely missed. I just started Avernum 2, i love the fact that you can see the amount of health everyone has in battle mode.

Yay i just finished the game.

I was confused how in coversation you could instagate a fight with him so i assumed that you were sopossed to kill him. There is a talking demon in the front room and tells you to talk to Erika's statue, i never figured out what to do with it. i have finished the game so i guess i can read some spoilers.

Tomorrow i start on Avernum 2!!! (i am going to bed as it is 1:00am in Australia)

i am confused, do most people play singleton??

i made a party and this is what i had

1 - warrior - natural warrior and good rep
2 - theif/archer/warrior - fast on feet, strong will
3 - mage - natural made, good education
4 - priest - divine touch

is that a sensible choice?

singleton??? As in you play the whole game with only one character.
I also noticed that in Avernum that people ask if you want them to join you, is this worthwhile??

hey also i was wondering, how long is the Avernum 1 shareware edition. Because i just purchased the Avernum box set and am waiting for it in the mail, so i wanted to get a head start.

Exile 3 shareware was huge, to finish off the slimes and the roaches and all of south valoriam was many hours.

But i was disapointed to find that in the first 30mins i hit a shareware barrier.......
