Re: [Audyssey] fallthrough darkwater cave stuck?
You level 1 strength for every warrior you defeat, and maybe renigades as well, I'm not sure. There's no in game notification, but to find out what level you are just type level. This will also tell you whether your a neutral, honourable, or evil warrior, though you'll know pretty quick if your evil sinse everyone wil try to kill you! Hth. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Fallthrough item handling annoyence?
Hi Dark, Perhaps this is just me, but I haven't ever noticed much of the item handling difficulties you describe. I keep all my ralls and food and such in a sack, and only take out what I need at the time. Granted, I haven't progressed quite as far as you have, it seems, but still, I don't have much trouble. As for the silver amulet, I can help with this. s p o i l e r s p a c e You can get the silver amulet by being especially cheritable towards peasants. At least, I've gotten it this way: there may be a place in the dungeons or elsewhere to get it too.

Re: [Audyssey] Fallthrough item handling annoyence?
You need a backpack, it sounds like. There's no real reason to take money into a dungeon, just FYI. My basic dungeon crawling kit generally goes as thus: Weapons: Sword, spear, knife, bow and at least 10 arrows. Food and Drink: At least 1 canteen, and 20 pounds of food. It'll all fit into your backpack along with the arrows, I believe. Misc: Flint, a lamp, one bottle of lamp oil, 5 ounces of salve, and any other light on-hand items like amulets or rings. I believe the backpacks are sold in Orn. They can hold quite a bit, and if I'm remembering right that shouldn't overburden your character. If there's something valuable down in the dungeon, I generally leave what supplies I can down in the room where it was, and haul the items out to my burrow, then retrieve the supplies. The dungeon on Forod seems to have no real direct relation to the game. I'm thinking it was either an incomplete dungeon tossed in and forgotten or a dungeon put in as an afterthought for no real purpose other than to hide treasure. It's a little tricky, but you can retrieve some of the treasure from it with a bit of luck. The sign seems to hint that if you move in one direction for long enough you'll eventually get back to the entrance. As for crossing the desert, I'll save you the time and frustration, and I'm sure you'll thank me for this later, but don't bother. It's a very, very long haul, I believe it took me 6 full canteens and at least 150 pounds of food to get across and some very careful planning, and there's nothing over there. At all. Most of the desert is just empty coordinates with not even hunting or desert warriors to break up the manotany. It does have its purposes though, which I won't give away. Also, I just remembered something about the silver amulet. There is a way to get it without killing peasants, in fact I'm not sure if you can ever get it from killing a peasant, it could be a random chance or it could just be a taunt to get you to kill peasants and lose honor. You seem to always lose the trinket after slaughtering anyone carrying one. If you want me to give you a hint on wear to find it, let me know. That one was kind of frustrating to find as well even with the hint I got from a warrior, but its workable and necessary. -- From: "dark" Sent: Saturday, January 10, 2009 4:51 PM To: "Gamers Discussion list" Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Fallthrough item handling annoyence?

Re: [Audyssey] fallthrough
Hi Dark, Could you maybe elaborate a little bit on what exactly your problem is? (The command syntax of Fallthru is generally close to Textadventurese, with a few noteable exceptions such as the handling of containers and a few odd preference issues, such as take instead of get, which can fortunately be abbreviated to tk.) I have some experience in fiddling with the game and can help if necesary. I'm just not sure what exactly you're doing and what you're expecting to happen, let alone what's actually happening. Cheers, Zack. - Original Message - From: "dark" To: Sent: Thursday, January 01, 2009 7:25 AM Subject: [Audyssey] fallthrough Okay, i've tried fallthrough, but my commands don't seem to be being picked up properly. H, maybe Louis could do the same here as he's done for some other dos games and make the interface a bit more smooth? either that, or I'm doing something wonky in running the thing. ditto with anacrion, though the menues there and random command history made things even more weerd. Beware the Grue! Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
