oops, a dodgy bit of editing on my part there...(the moment?)

Perhaps I should get some sleep...but nooooo, I shall resist it and find the answer to this strange conundrum!

Whilst I'm typing here, I'll just blab more RPGness off the top of my head. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Did anyone notice the Bard's Tale references in IWD?
Here's a couple:
Gerth's Equipment Shoppe (Good Ol' Garth from BT!)
and now the song that Murdaugh sings in HoW: It almost rips some lines straight out of the intro poem in the original Bard's Tale. Furthermore, his quest for the ice rose reminds me of Lucencia, from Bard's Tale III, a gorgeous dungeon for plot and prose to be sure! Too loose to be considered a reference? Maybe, but it definitely gave me some rainbow nostalgia!

Anymore? [img]smile.gif[/img]
There probably is, but I can't think of any right now in a hazy sleepiness...
Grrr, barbarian camp where art thou!?
