Thanks, I'll get some action shots up later today.

The only counters Mages have against Insect Plague are Spell Immunity : Conjuration and a scroll of Dispel Magic (cast on self). Jonathan the 3rd does not use either of these. ;)

How do I paste/attach a screen shot, I am not being allowed to simply copy and past.

You have to upload the image to a web host or a file storage service. This is the one I use. Then all you have to do is copy the link to the image and insert it between the [img] xxx [/img] tags.

I will update this page with screen shots and story - I will keep each screenshot on a single page in order to facillitate quicker download times for dial-up connections. Just click the "next image button" at the bottom of each page.

GREAT story so far !!

I've got the pages setup as a template, so it automaticall puts the next link at the bottom before I have the next page up - page 9-12 will be up shortly.

Crumbs. Of all the Mages the game has, the Necromancer will have the most difficulty in this fight because it does not have Illusion spells. It does have the cool factor though, so let us see what we can do.

Do not memorise Spell Deflection or Spell Turning. Use the Cloak of Mirroring instead. Without Project Image, you need to conserve your spell slots. Do not memorise Spell Shield, use the Boots of Preserving instead( from the Ritual Mod) and drink an Oil of Speed for the haste effect.

Use the Sorcerian Ring if you have it, and/or Ring of Wizardry/Acuity/Gaxx in the following priority. Spells will be your power in this fight.

Use Spell Trap at all times to regain back your spells. Remember that Planetars can cast on you too to help you regain back spells.

Consider saving a Greater Malison and a Spell Trigger with 3 Feebleminds for the second Irenicus after lowering his Magic Resistance.

Consider not wasting spells on the Dragon and just suck its brains out. If you are fast enough, you can suck the Wraith's brains out too during the same Time Stop. In fact, if you have scrolls of Time Stop... use them when in Mind Flayer form to get an additional 3 rounds of Time Stop. Mucho cheesiness.

Consider punting the third Irenicus around like a Football by using Shapeshift to morph into a 100% Magic Resistant Iron Golem.
