nearart Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 There is land East of New Harston across from river, but the the bridge is out. Is there any way to access that area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synergy Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Jeff seems to like to put at least a couple of teases like this in each game. In A4, there was the research book on the floor upstairs in the Tower Colony you could see but never actually get at, to name another. -S- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Student of Trinity Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Though in this case I don't think it's really a tease, since the existence of this river and the lands across it must have already been established in A4, if not earlier. You just can't go there in A5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 It teased me. I was fully expecting to come back later in the game and cross the bridge when it was rebuilt. -S- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucheiah Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 What about when you get the boat from Harston Docks. Can't you use the boat to cross the river? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 The mouth of the river up near Melanchion's Keep, is blocked with rocks, so you can't go down into it with your boat. If you see a picture of the whole world map, you'll see there is nothing over the bridge anyway. -S- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucidus Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Another tease (I think) is a cache at the top of a cliff, on the north bank about halfway through the Northern Rapids. It is clearly visible, but as far as I can see from the maps, there is no way to get up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Student of Trinity Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Yes, Jeff confirmed to me in testing that this one was just a tease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottk Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Speaking of the bridge to nowhere, does it bother anyone else that Melanchion lives where Formello (or something) should be or that Vahnatai lands now occupy Fort Monestary (more or less)?

Student of Trinity Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Presumably at some point you go down a long way, so the rest of Avernum is far above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punctuation rains from the heavens Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Presumably first during the rapids, since the Drake Pillars would really be the part on top of Fort Monastery, judging from the scale used for New Harston's cavern and the (eastern) Northern Waters.
