Oh! Excellent, thanks.

Hello. My party order is shaman sorcerer archer berzerker. How can I change the party order so the berzerker is up front as a shield? Thanks!

Hey! Thank you. I'd missed that one. Very exciting! You wait so long for fantasy authors, it is very demoralising. Spiderweb Software is better. There is always a game to reload or catch up with, and the new stuff never stops coming. It's amazing.

This is so great! Thank you!

Advisable. You have until January 3rd. He's cranking it up again: http://www.penguin.com/book/the-heart-of-what-was-lost-by-tad-williams/9780756412487

as I read through the Dragonbone Chair series of books, I started to see more and more of Simon Snowlock in Redbeard. At the end the description is a lot like a young Redbeard, I think. A kind of red-haired, beardy giant of a warrior, who never shrinks from hard decisions. So I think the inspires come from all around. Um, so you know, Jeff isn't old :-)

http://www.spiderweb...don2/shots.html It's Nathalie and Sevilin. She injured her right arm on her ambition quest, remember? It never got better cos she's too Alpha to waste time with puny healing-types. Sevilin to Redbeard "Hey look I'm sorry and everything about your castle but it wasn't us, alright?"

...for Nathalie, see screenshot 4 of 8 here: http://www.spiderweb...don2/shots.html (wait! who is that cloaked figure?!!??) ...for Miranda, yes I suppose she will be a leader of Avadon's opposition. I never got the dialogue about finding her secrets during the rat hunt to work satisfactorily. She is a complex character. I think I will reload and try and find the part where she asks you to join her at the end.

From the Avadon 2: The Corruption page: > But then Avadon was attacked. A sneak raid shattered the fortress, and, with it unable to keep order, madness has resulted. Civil war, barbarian raids, even conspiracies to destroy your people. Avadon’s power and influence has faded, and yet your people need it more than ever. Everything is falling apart, and a shadowy power has risen to destroy your homeland. What will you do? Will you fight your enemies? Or will you join them and end Avadon’s power once and for all? The choice is yours! > Madness has resulted! Madness I say! What will you do? I played a lawful Avadonian last time. I tried to be bad, but except for supporting my friends in their personal obsessions, I kept playing the basically loyal Hand. Except when the red mist descended in the end and I murdered my employer. Did Jeff overplay Avadon's badness last time? Or, did he underplay the extent to which conspiracies to "destroy your people" were held in check by the activities of Eyes and Hands? I feel like, in my 2&1/2~ish plays, I missed the point that I was protecting my people. I thought I was just doing dirty work. The result is known, the die is cast, might will win, and it is good, because weakness means civil war. Whether Avadon rules or someone else, the result is the same. Still, how will you get there? What will you do? This time, THIS time, I will JOIN my enemies and end Avadon’s power once and FOR ALL! Ok I doubt it. I will play a lawful Avadonian :^)

Hi. Raced through the George RR Martin books. Too much torture and stuff (of the the reader!). Too hot! Tried a couple Robert Jordan. Too much like other fantasy writers. Too cold! On the second book of Steven Erikson's Malazan series. Has gods in it. Like the magic use. Just right!

Hi Shaman is something of a Shaper-surrogate for me, as I like pets (well, summoned creatures that you send to their deaths). Last year I played Avadon as a Shaman, and I didn't find it so bad not playing as a tank. Praps it just takes longer. Anyway, what I always do first time, is play through the way it's set up as generic by the Author, on normal. So my answer is, "whatever I'm given". And then I will unbalance my friend-characters mightily by always taking the Shaman as my adventure companion :^) On a side note, when I had to ask the server for a new password just now, re-captcha gave me what I thought (wrongly) were the words: Tiateric Placido ...so now I have my main character's name !

Catoblepas: in my next playthrough I will be palying as a complete Avadon Loyalist Dear Potato: I find difficult to stay as a rebel Hand The Rev: by the end I was convinced that the folks behind the conspiracy were no better, and probably worse, than Redbeard I liked hearing you all say this, because I agree completely, 'swhy I was playing this time through as a confirmed loyalist who helped in positive ways when I could. So this time through my character did everything possible for Dhorl Stead as enthusiastically as possible. And it was a pain to then be sent to Dhorl Stead as a destroyer, and not be able to avert that. It turns me rebel, as Miranda intended. Odd to hear that Jeff is surprised by this. I killed Gryfyn (cool fight!) then I reloaded and let him go, and thus I was able, after all, to express my character's rebellious feeling, and honour is satisfied.

And her poison/acid at high levels is pretty good, too. I agree. While missile damage is a bit limited from Sha..men or mans?, Their area spells are the best in the late game. Poison Mist>Call the Storm>Spirit Claw>Earthshatter After all that lot, without even a regenerate, the battlefield is quite transformed. I often don't get to call Hellhound. I like a Blessing Blademaster for Triumphant roar and Terrifying Howl, a Shaman, and Shadowwalker. I think my Blessing guy is possibly stronger with the Sorceress and Blademaster backup, but I like blademaster/shaman/shadowalker better anyhow

You are right, in that the game often states things to us in those terms. However, your use of the word "protection" is here relevant in the sense of The Godfather: abuse, bullying, extortion, oppression. These are the terms used to describe Casta'Arl's thugs in the early game. I don't expect Dhorl Stead to kiss my @ss. I just thought they wouldn't be so raring keen to die for an idea. A *bad* idea. I guess there are a lot of story lines in Avadon, and too many for EVERYTHING to be settled to my casual satisfaction =) Now I have to decide whether or not to kill Gryfyn. I am going to kill Redbeard, so to taunt optimally I will withhold the info. I suppose I will kill Gryfyn because it is a hard fight. But I wish it had some sort of impact on the game. RIchard
