You'd virtually have to go through as a druid for Celts. I can see SP being a problem throughout the game.

I might try it, though, once I finish MC.

Lots of people talk about this. So far as I know, nobody has done it.

His problem wasn't with summoning it. His problem was with making it fight. :P

Are you sure the monster you were summoning it against was hostile? If it was, well, summoned monsters just act a little stupidly sometimes.

Those shades are famously tough. Everyone gets stuck on them. Come back when you can make Drayks or something equally impressive.

Bug list and suggestions in Blades of Avernum

Lack of assassination resistance can be worked around by giving it more HP and lack of petrification resistance can be worked around by giving it 100% magic resistance. Of course, sometimes you might want a monster to be immune to petrification but not to magic, but it's rare that you're in a position to petrify your enemies anyway. I consider it a minor bug.

The obvious workaround is to duplicate the code you need in INIT_STATE itself. Ugly, but effective.

The whaleskin tights might be a red herring -- I haven't found a pair anywhere. I've done some testing, though, and it seems as if any whale-related item will satisfy his first quest. Dallerdin probably already had Ellhrah's whalebone corset. If you didn't join the Takers and complete the mission to steal it, you could try buying some ambergris instead. I forget where it's sold, though.

Giant Strength definitely affects hit rate and damage in my BoE; it's even shown on the character status screen (at least if the item is identified). Not sure about Strength, Dexterity and Intelligence, since it's harder to test the effects of those.

The Akhronath with the crystal soul in it is west of Fort Remote, in the far southwest of Exile.

BoA has a loyal community around it and doesn't need people who are just here to whine about the graphics. If you don't like it, leave.

I'd advise starting a new thread when you release the final version. It'll attract more attention, which it richly deserves.

They only appear some of the time (about a 25% chance each time you enter the area). Try leaving and re-entering the area.

Of course, it's also possible you killed them already and didn't notice, in which case you're going to have to start looking around for where the stone was dropped.

Sounds like it'd take a lot of work, and a lot of towns, to pull this off in a worthwhile way.

If barter were always the best system, we wouldn't have invented money in the first place. I, for one, don't mind being paid in dollars instead of salt. :P

Tim Tams are the best chocolate biscuit in the world. I believe they're available in America now, although possibly under a different name. Of course, they probably have corn syrup in them over there instead of real sugar, so it sucks to be you anyway.

I don't think so; just start out in Geneforge without using the canister, then get to Exile 3 and you can go back by retracing your steps (I'm assuming you know the way to convince Anaximander to open the side exit to Fort Emergence; it's unpleasant and degrading, I know, but as far as I know it's the only way back).

That's a lot of work, of course; does anyone know if there's a trick to get from Geneforge straight to Exile 3 without going through Geneforge 2 and the Exile series? I tried to use the broken ship, but even after I repaired it, it sank and I was eaten by piranhas.
