    I'm having this problem too, this exact problem. Not sure what to do from here.
  2. The importance of scarabs is that if you time it right, you can blow up a whole bunch of probes/drones/scvs. Duh.
  3. One RPG trope that I like as a solution to explain why level 1ers are heroes is the "start off in a tough spot" trope. For example, I started one 1st level D&D campaign where the party began imprisoned in a Rakshasa's lair and had to scrap their way out.
  4. Laser puzzles!!! Oh god the pain. The worst was when you would leave a screen with the job done, and then go back and find out you had to destroy ALL of the lasers ALL over again.
  5. Sounds like you don't like having your party die, gauss. *shrug* I've gotten used to it.
  6. From what I've heard of the new game, it's going to be a battle between good and evil, civilization vs. barbarism. What's interesting to me is the Bluebeard influence. http://media-2.web.britannica.com/eb-media/23/6723-050-87ADDE3F.jpg Bluebeard's a very creepy story, but it's got a very ornate and rich feel, as well. What I'm hoping is that we have an opportunity to play in a world where civilization is wealthy but decadent, and politics might be a factor. I'd love to hear more updates on the new game's progression, but it's probably too soon. Can't wait forever though Jeff!
  7. The avernum 3 game heroes retired to the surface, didn't they?
  8. What sticks in my craw is that this is a spell that you can never cast! All of Avernum at your feet, practically, and you can't find a single spellbook to cast this cool lasting damage alternative to acid spray??? And how come there's no "kill" spell anymore. Gah!
  9. Same thing happened to me. Then I headed toward the exit and all of a sudden he started to catch up.
  10. I'm playing the game on a 15" imac and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. Admittedly, it does get a bit crowded; it'd be nice to have a bit more condensed interface, especially considering I mostly use the keyboard... You're missing out, I have to say. This is easily the best Avernum of the 4-6 generation, with some really compelling areas/activities.
  11. ooooooh. that's silly. now I can not feel so bad about letting those eggs pop. I'm guessing the eggs I need are in the chitrach hive in the eastern gallery?
  12. ? I've bumped my nature lore up to fourteen even, and each time I click on one of those little eggs, it gives me the message that it's icky and gross, but I can't pick them up?
  13. I have to say that I really liked the (SPOILER!) fight against the Scourge near the end. It really challenged my party at the time, and it felt appropriately epic.
