Ha, I just found him. Luck, I guess. Thanks anyway!

I've checked both rooms - got a "it looks like someone sleeps here occasionally" message both times, and I've been back and forth between the two rooms, with no luck.

It's day 93 in the game I'm playing, and for the last 5 days (game time) I've been looking for the Mage with No Name, in Kriszan and Delan. Kriszan is starting to look a little worse-for-wear, and I'm concerned the Mage is dead; this means that I won't be able to find the Tower of Zkal and get the Ring. Or have I just been shockingly unlucky in finding him? Does the Mage die after a certain day?

I'm curious... with the "giveasnack" uber-cake worth 30000g... couldn't you just set the cake to be worth 120 000g and just sell one for your 30k? I'm gonna try that right now and see what happens. Okay - you guys probably knew already - if you try to be greedy you get told, "can't sell"

Yeah, I recall - that was irritating, you could never tell if it was worth the theft or not.

Right, right, that makes sense now! Kinda difficult to represent 3D in a 2D medium but I can kinda see how that would work.

I'm re-reading it for the second time (so, 3rd reading) and I just love it, it's so incredibly epic! My husband and I have been toying with getting the Game of Thrones campaign setting and playing it when we get tired of D&D.

I'm curious now - I just looked at the maps and... I thought if you went east from Harston, across the river, you'd end up somewhere between Fort Monastery and Grindstone. Unless the caves are kinda spiraling downwards as you go around so by the time you end up in the Azure Gallery you're a fair way below NE Avernum itself?

Hehe, I just did. I do like some of the loot I wonder... could the 30000gold cake trick work to deposit other items into your inventory? Say, the "cake" is actually a Jade Halberd or a Crystalline Aegis? You'd just be re-skinning the "cake" wouldn't you?

I'd like to know, how do I remove certain quests from my list? I did the "Lysstak's Spies" quest in the wrong order (I questioned one person, acted on her information, then questioned another person and acted on his information; apparently you're meant to question both people first and THEN act on their information, get ambushed and then present your evidence to complete the quest...) I also want to remove the "Mined Crystals" quest from Fuller because I'm damned if I'll be returning to Harkin's Landing each time I get any mined crystals, and I know there's a vahnahtai that buys them too later on in the game. This isn't my first play through; it's just the first time I've played in about a year... I'm playing on medium and using the Editor (whee, arcane blast at full power on a bunch of mooky bandits!)

(Sorry, thread necromancy) With respect to the gremlins, if you want to be able to succeed at their challenge what you need to do is (assuming you kinda know where the trinkets all are) haste all your party members and go into combat mode and just travel in combat mode. I guess you could do it without haste but haste gives you that extra movement which is the real big deal with the gremlins' challenge.

I always got the impression that Starrus would be pro-advancement; anything for the good of Avernum. Imagine how the battle against the pylons beyond Fort Remote in A4 would have gone if the grunts had been equipped with even black powder weapons. Quite possibly would have turned the tables of the battle... if we're equating the power generated by a musket to be roughly equivalent to the power generated by a Bolt of Fire...

Awesome, I'm there!

I'm thinking it's the same anvil summoned over and over - once it's done its damage it returns to whence it came. Thus, no economic damage! But anyway, the screenies are very impressive, the spell graphics, so far, look very nice and everything looks smooth and pretty.
