After all, even if the player doesn't deliberately go in with a bizarre party, sometimes characters die, and some players actually leave them dead until they can get them resurrected instead of reloading.

Harry Potter in General
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Friday, July 8 2005 03:09 Profile Homepage #76 Not necessarily about things to be avoided; fairy tales were often just morality tales in general. I've always found the premise of "The Girl Who Trod on the Loaf" hilarious in a vaguely unsettling way.

Still, surely there have to be other amusing diversions that become legal at the age of 18. -------------------- My BoE Page Bandwagons are fun! Roots Hunted!

Secret 2nd Alien Blade and Mithral Broadsword in The Exile Trilogy
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Friday, July 8 2005 00:21 Profile Homepage #3 I'd hardly call Luck useless. Once a character has 10 points or so of Luck, they're pretty much invincible, because an attack will almost never kill them even if they're at 0 HP. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

A Trip to the Confessional in Richard White Games
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Friday, July 8 2005 00:18 Profile Homepage #66 Well, you're expected to be thorough in playing it. Ideally, you should play through repeatedly, do different things each time, and make detailed comments and suggestions. Try to break the game's internal logic by doing things in ways the designer wouldn't expect. Assess whether combat is well-designed and what imbalances (if any) exist. When done well, it's considerably more work than just playing through it. Also, you have to expect a lot of bugs. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Proof of a vast conspiracy in Richard White Games

Of course, as the undead don't need such basic necessities as food, central heating and Internet access, the cash then gets funnelled to Jeff. Posts: 9973 \| Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00
What are the good scenarios? in Blades of Exile
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Wednesday, July 6 2005 18:36 Profile Homepage #5 For a beginner, I'd recommend Spears. It's a large, high-quality scenario, but all of the combat is fairly easy. Posts: 9973 \| Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00

The Mad Ambition Problem in Blades of Avernum
Thuryl ...b10010b... Member # 869	written Wednesday, July 6 2005 17:44 Profile Homepage #3 Let me guess: you're using Windows? And you downloaded the scenario off Spiderweb's scenario tables? The Windows version of the scenario that's available at SW is a beta version that TM released by mistake, and it's kind of buggy.
