Found it. And finished the game (making it the first Spiderweb game I have finished). Thanks!

I only need to know how to open the porticullis in the top-center part of the keep so I can activate the last of the control panels.

Okay. It goes like this: I have activated practically every control panel that can unlock the control panel that unlocks the porticullis (on the room north of where Rentar is) which gives me access to the trap door with the last 2 control panels. But yet the panel still says that it's deactivated and I can't open the porticullis.

Thanks for that. My party's now level 7-8 and I can definitely see the improvement.

I usually play in chronological order, but I decided to skip Avernum 1 (though my saves are still preserved) maybe because it lacked a list of quests you have taken. (It's really important for a game with a huge scope) But am I missing out on much (My AV1 characters are... from level 9-12 I think)?
