nearart Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Remember in Avernum 4 where Mage X in the Tower colony says he is trying to create a war spell to "summon an anvil and deposit it on the head of my foe". This is definitely a Looney Toons cartoons reference, especially of the road runner and coyote. Then in Avernum 5 the anvils are mentioned again in an angry letter by Solberg to someone (must be Mage X) that he has no anvils, etc. I thought that was a nice funny touch.

Callie Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 X has had a fascination with anvil research since the first game in the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomizer Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Avernum had a switch from the Exile series where the location of the largest anvil in Avernum went from X to the head priest in the Tower. Still the anvils have to be the longest running gag in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkarski Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Jeff would make the greatest gag of all times by forcing the players to get through one of the fabulous strategy games that once haunted this website before enabling them to do battle with Dorikas and win A5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottk Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Too bad you're not required to kill Dorikas with an anvil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
