You're not encouraging him to lie are you?

...and I have only played two. When computer time became scant, playing scenarios took a back seat to the website and forums.

Do you have the demo for E3 and need to register it inorder to use the character editor? That would make more sense.

 

There are lots of ways to earn money. I got myself a paper route in grade school. Lemonade stand is a classic (though I don't think it's ever brought in much in reality). Offering to do yard work for the neighbors. If you're involved with a church, offer your general services to the congregation. Tell your teachers your trying to earn some money and see if they have anything for you to do. Basically just ask everyone you know if there's anything (within reason) that they'd pay you to do for them. (Just use your common sense for what you agree to do. )

Link to the site in the sig v.

 

It's in the 'Comprehensive BoE Walkthroughs'.

Hubby and I have come to an understanding and I'm getting rid of gmail *sniffs* I love gmail.

 

Anyways, since I have to edit my e-mail address on every. single. page. *sigh* of the website I'm gonna do some housekeeping while I'm at it and make all the pages look nicer. It'll take me a while to edit all the pages so alot of the 'Contact Me' buttons won't work for a while.

 

The way to tell if it'll work is if the bar at the bottom of the page includes links to the list of utilities and list of downloads. That means I've change it. Else you can just click on the link in my sig here v.

I have all the scenarios/utilities made on my harddrive. I count 280 in all. Have you played all 280?

 

Go through the list at the CSR or alphabetically in my walkthrough database .

Not surprised... Djur, request for Pyg.

I'd like a copy as well. I'll put it up at TrueSite for Blades as a Utility Scenario if you like.

 

Can outdoors sections be imported like towns can?

I can't believe nobody's mentioned Adventurer's Club! Now I'm pretty new to all the BoE scenarios myself, but if you want a game that will take you from lvl 1 to God and be enjoyable too then Adventurer's Club is great.

*note to self - Play AC2 and AC3 already!

 

EDIT: ACK! I wasted too much time changing chanels for the kids. Looks like milu beat me but the sentiment remains.

I can't seem to find any either... looks like you'll need to make some of your own.

You're my hero TM.

This is usually one thing that would be fiddled with by me in the beginning but it's not the default. That's why I said after the first level is gained to find a trainer and bring it up. So that just incase they missed it in making their party they took care of it first thing.

But of course I'm sure you never, ever, started a party with a PC that had less then 4 strength did you?

*stares at TM with awe*

Gizmo's step-by-step starting out instructions:

 

If you have never played BoE before (or any of the other Exile games) this is how I suggest you learn the game.

 

Use the prefab party. If you don't know anything about PC stats then just leave them alone. If you do feel free to go in and tinker with the begining stats given.

 

Make sure you equip what ever armor/weapons you have. If you have any money (and not too little food) consider investing in better weapons right away. Your attacks are only as good as the weapon you wield. Save often. In VoDT getting into fights with wandering monsters is the best way to start IMO. So go exploring the outdoors but don't wander too far West. The monsters get much harder once you cross the bridge.

 

In an outdoor fight, line up your fighters right next to each other infront of your spellcasters and have them stand ready. Line up your spellcasters right behind them and have them cast minor bless and minor haste on the fighters. These spells don't last long but for wandering encounters they last long enough.

 

Let the enemy come to you always standing ready. The first couple are usually slain before they can raise a weapon. Usually the monsters will group together in front of you making them the perfect targets for fireballs. I would suggest, though, to let your fighters take care of as many as possible so that they become stronger quicker.

 

Once your fighters have gained a level, seek out a trainer and bring their strength up to at least 4. This will cause them to gain more HP automatically when they gain level. I would continue wandering until your fighters are level five and then switch stradegy's to the same line up but letting your spellcasters kill all the monsters. Have them cast minor bless on the fighters to keep them from being hit and minor haste on each other. Make sure you're not leaving your priests behind. If your mages have already gained levels but your priest has not then have the mages only stand ready while the priests do the work. Again I would continue until everyone was at level 5 but for some it gets too boring too fast.

 

If you are bored, go ahead and delve into the story for a bit. Don't forget to check the eastern mountain wall. There are battles and hidden treasures to find that will help greatly. You might not be ready for the battle with the brigands yet but as long as you save before you go in, you could get some practice with strategy while you fight them.

 

Always kill the spellcasters first. Secondly kill any monster that shoots arrows/spines or can web/curse ect. Experiment with your spells to see what spells do what kind of damage. Once your party is all at level 10 you're ready to venture out further. The more you play, the more you'll be comfortable with venturing at lower levels and the more you'll be able to win at lower levels.

 

Happy gaming.

I had switched it to view the whole year. Am I still missing something?

 

EDIT: NM *smacks self* I just noticed the numbers at the bottom of the page.

I guess they don't keep inactive topics around here for very long. Just wanted to update that The Dark Tower has been submitted.

 

I'm still keeping the list current over at The Lyceum .

 

PS. I've updated my sight with a map and complete walkthrough for TDT. Last item to make is a hint sheet and it'll be one more scenario down... ~ hundred more to go.

Any and all walkthroughs for BoE/BoA scenarios will be quickly accepted, greatly appreciated, and utilized for years to come by TrueSite for Blades and those who access it's database.

Drizzt also explains it well at his website in his basic how-to section.

 

Basic How-To

thx.

Can you do one for the map as well as for the playing screen?

 

Edit: OS Win XP if that's important.

Try putting your mouse cursor at the very bottom of the screen. It should change to an up and down arrow. Click and drag up. Chances are that you have the Exile game open but minimized and that's why it won't let you delet it. If you press Control-Alt-Delete together a box should pop up where you can choose to end the program.

I have uploaded Nine Variations on Point B to my website. Check my List of all Downloads.

I'm posting the whole of the walkthrough. I just don't want to host a download for the word.doc as well.

 

I've got it done. I just need to fix some links.

You asked if anyone wanted it and I said yes.

 

It's been on my harddrive for a month or two but I finally got around to doing something with it.

 

TrueSite is underconstruction at the moment. I decided to make my life a lot harder and take advantage of the new geocities feature of subdirectories. Not that I was having problems navigating it but I think it'll make things easier for me in the future. That plus I'm obsessed with neatness, order, and orginization. I tried to resist the urge to sort but I lost. Thus after everything was sorted all the links were wrong so I have to fix them all before it'll be up and running again.

Would it be possible to write a program to help crack passwords? Would it be ethical? I tried once to crack a password but after the first five hundred sequential tries my fingers got tired. There has to be an easier way... I'm sure Spiderweb has a program that does it for them.

 

I don't know, just a thought.

It could also be just an identifier for the group. I think that if the item is identified you'll be able to see if it has any special abilities. If the value for one is 10 times that of the others it's probably special.

 

Pretty soon I'll have to start paying Yahoo for my website. I'm running out of webspace. But that's OK. It's the sign of a healthy website. I like to have the actual text of the walkthrough on the site with shortcuts to specific events and questions. I know that PageBuilder doesn't support bitmap files so they'd have to be converted if I wanted to put them on a page. I could offer the walkthrough as just a downloaded zip but I'm partial to conformity and it would bug me if I did. Anyway, whenever you're ready just send me what you have and I'll worry about how to put it on the site then.

Of course I'll have it, though I didn't know that Spiderweb hosted walkthroughs. You can send it to them if you want but I wouldn't expect them to post it anywhere.
