There are cursed Halberds in every game. I assume it's Exile II as he mentions the fight with Nephilim at the beginning of the game.

I believe that there are 10 28-day months for a year of 280 days.

what party do you use? in The Avernum Trilogy

I've done a no-magic party and singleton in Exile III. There were no scrolls, potions, wands, magical items, etc. at all.

Occasionally I would buy a magical item if it was required for the plot.

Well, if the Player Character graphics stay as they are on the screenshots I won't like A4, really disappointing. I would consider them more a step backwards. Just picking Geneforge graphics simply doesn't fit to Avernum. Hope that this still gets changed, though I doubt it. I rather would have prefered the graphic sets of older times, never really liked the Geneforge ones (main reason why I haven't bought G3, I had enough with G2 already), but now mixing them into Avernum? :(
My wife who liked to play A series feels the same about G graphics and reading through some of the posts here and in other forums I think I'm not alone with my growing disappointment after seeing the screenshots...

my 2 cents, but who cares anyway
Abraxx

You will be able to choose more PC graphics. They just don't exist yet.

Also, the graphics are much better than the Avernum graphics (although the slimes look pretty lame).

And as for demon wizards, there are none of those like you suggest. So far it seems to be "I forget that I killed him off in an earlier game".

When in the main menu, click on the button under "Edit Town" that says something like "Edit Dialogue" and make personalities and nodes. To assign them to characters, go into town mode and edit a monster and place the number of their personality in the box that asks for it.

A lot of this can be answered by reading the documentation.

Erika stays dead, but other powerful wizards may come back :rolleyes: .

Also, the spell system is much nicer than Avernum's or Geneforge's.

Probably a week after the beta-testing form closes.

Well, ounces mean different things in volume and weight, and nautical miles are different from land miles.

Also, I'm pretty sure that Ermarian has much more water and much less landmass than Earth.

It is accelerated by completing the Troglo/Giant quest too.

Still, it only happens if you take a long time. Otherwise, I'm sure some other group of adventurers deals with it.

I remember getting caught in the lava pit a few times too. You should be able to leave the Tower of Shifting Floors from the Lava Pit (use the Firewalk spell). If you can't, then go back up.

It is possible that the Empire had the equivalent of a Thought Crystal when they captured the Crystal Souls, or the Crystal Souls thought that Gaddika and co. were taking them to a new crystal shrine or something.

Most of the Olgai Clan felt that their vengeance was accomplished when they recovered the Crystal Souls and drove the Empire out of Avernum.

There was also a Spanish person in Exile I.

What identified him as Spanish - is the word "Spanish" actually in the game?

Yes.

Also, for maps, I have the following maps of three of the four continents: http://ryan-thompson.home.comcast.net/pralgadmap.gif

Half of one clan of Vahnatai wish vengeance on the Empire for stealing Crystal Souls and vengeance on Avernum for interfering with the previous vengeance.

Also, why don't you guys let the mods and admins do their job? Several mods have read and posted in this thread without mentioning the double posting. If someone makes posts a couple hours apart with new relevant information, I think it's fine.

Also, automatically deleting old posts makes me shiver. I like having old posts around.

Those aren't the ones that you can cast Dispel Barrier on. You can only cast Dispel Barrier on the ones with the big green circles, and only after visiting the control room.
