Episode 3 could always be a Lewis Carroll themed the Hunting of the _____ Insert your favorite target. Although removing Commander Eddie and all his aliases would be fine. Every time you eliminate him he reappears to wreck havoc on the forums.

In BoA's Valley of the Dying Things the was a room in the mage school near the GIFTS that was 20 tool use to unlock and had an empty square behind it.

A4 has a room in the Castle near the Levitt reward room that Jeff purposely left at difficulty 90 with nothing there.

*I is right, changing dexterity, quick action, hasting/slowing, and a few other items can change the order that the party acts in. I've had it happen between successive combats where I didn't think anything much had changed.

The second trial is north of Formello and east of the Prongtail Mines.

The mark on your hand is something else.

There are plenty of threads giving info on finding the 3rd trial, but it sounds like you found the door.

The Bible (OT) does have a specific commandment forbidding homosexually as an abomination.

As to sex on Capitol Hill, as Newt Gingrich once told his mistress he want only oral sex so he could truthfully say he never slept with her. He said this during the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal.

Besides without congressional sex scandals they would have to go home to their wives. And their wives are busy with Hillary's husband.

I'm not sure which Exile game you are in but it sounds like Exile 2. There shouldn't be any problem with Erika unless you entered someplace she tells you not to and steal something of hers. Usually you just get attacked for your effort by some guardian monsters unless you took an NY item. Erika is touchy.

There are a fixed number of job board quests. Some are added as you finish other quests and claim your reward. You must click on a job board quest before you can get a reward message even if you finished the quest.

Torment has a few encounters that are harder to do and require thought. Hrickris, Nodicuas, and Dorikas are the worst ones in the game. Even on torment mode there is a lot of hack and slash.

The Hintbook in General

The hintbook is usally cheaper when you order the game at the same time. I don't think it matters whether the game is a CD or download. There is still a shipping and handling charge for the book so getting the CD at the same time is better and you have a permanent copy of the registration code on the CD.

A PDF version makes sense since it saves Jeff the time and expense of shipping the books. The major part that you want is the maps.

It appears to be mindset over ability. There are several people that started training and were rejected for their views. Treating serviles as equals or with too much caring is the big one.

There is a lot of emphasis in GF3 in the book at Greenwood Academy that it is more important how you use your abilities than to have ability. The mad shaper going out of control and unleashing rogue creations is the Shaping Council's main worry.

i think someone did get inside those rooms and found nothing. It was a test of what levels you needed to have to use unlock doors on impossible doors.

Good combat engine, but the plot needs work, a lot of work. Money limit is a real problem.

dont like summons? in Avernum 4
Law Bringer
Member # 6785

The only summon I liked was summon shade. They are immune to cold and charm spells.

As a singleton I used them versus Nodicuas to slow him down and keep his demon buddy from attacking me. I tried to use them to block the chitrach near Fort Remote from getting out. You have to keep summoning them since they wander off.

Didn't like divine host since you only get one and he kept dying too quicky at the end.

I always like the riddles and puzzles in Exile. I though the tests in Avernum 2 where the intelligence was replaced with patience was a weak point. Pushing around a crate where it didn't fall off the ledges when it was supposed to was a flaw.

The Nethergate dialog method is tedious in going through all the choices to be sure you don't miss some information.

The problem with quickfire is that it obscures your view of objects. In Exile 2 there are a few places where treasure and chests are hidden in quickfire squares.

It's better to delay getting help from the Vahnatai until after going south and dealing with the Darkside Loyalists down at Erika's ruins.

I didn't ask for help until after I killed everything between the first place and the haakai guarding the bridge.

Favorite Television Shows in General

How about your favorite television show for each decade? Since some shows are in more than one decade use the show's first episode date from the original airing. Also since almost all of you are too young you can use syndicated reruns from each decade.

My favorites are:

60s - Get Smart - Would you believe the others missed it by that much? That it's Mel Brooks' most sucessful tv series. How about as the Chief said, "It doesn't matter how good you are. All that matters is the ratings."

70s - The Rockford Files - I'll get back to you. Almost as good as Maverick for the cons.

80s - The Greatest American Hero - It shows how far you can get without reading the instruction manual. Great superhero parody that survived Warner Bros. lawsuit about the red suit ripping off Superman.

90s - Seinfeld - A great show about nothing. How to suceed with being a slacker.

00s - The Lone Gunmen - George W. missed the pilot where they almost hit the World Trade Center with a passenger jet. If it had lasted longer the plots could have used what he's doing now for their conspiracies.

They both have their points, but I prefer Avernums.

I'd really prefer no more of these game polls for until after a new game is released.

The easiest ones to do are in the east part of the Eastern Gallery that you get in Silvar.

If you take your time and do it in sections then you can do the slith cult near the Tower of Magi.

Some of the pieces require going through secret passages.

Getting the mold isn't necessary to see Erika, it just makes it easier.

You can use the orb of Thrani instead of the giant boats.

Piercing crystals in Avernum 4

You can also buy a piercing crystal in the Tower Colony if I remember correctly. There should be enough piercing crystals in the game up to that point to cover what you need.

Skipping ahead to do the demon quest isn't that hard if you are careful.

dex vs armor in Avernum 4

There are some monsters in the early game like nephil archers that it's better to hit first before they kill you. Daze helps when you can't get all of them at once.

The penalty to hit for high protection armors is usually not significant. You may get an occasional message that you miss, but it the protection is worth it in damage reduction.

I always like comedy musicals like Fiddler on the Roof, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Spamalot, and The Producers. I prefer a laugh between the songs. I forgot The Boys from Syracuse *Shakespear* is another.

Unless you run a singleton, money is always tight and you can never buy all the training for everyone. That's why I recommend destroying all pylons for their crystals so you have something extra instead of the stealth route west of Fort Remote.
