This is my site, so I feel obligated to respond to the dash of cold water quoted above.

The purpose of my site is to provide information on Wizardry and Wizards & Warriors to the fans. Period. There are no ad banners, affiliate sales links, or any other commercial items clogging the site.

Much information within the site is built upon other sources, and there is a credits page devoted to giving original author attributions.

The various Wizards & Warriors bug lists and hints were compiled by myself, taken from a variety of overlapping fora and personal discoveries and correspondence. The prose was all crafted by myself from scratch, and in many cases, including the classes data, bugs, cheats, and especially the walkthrough, several entries are based on discoveries I made on my own.

When the game was released, many of the bugs and cheating vulnerabilities were repeatedly cross-posted to various forums, making it difficult for me to bother including an original author attribution on each one. Just because someone posts something to a forum doesn't necessarily mean that they discovered it on their own, or for that matter that I read the post before adding the material to my site.

I'm sorry if for these reasons my attempts to compile a valuable gaming resource is viewed with such disdain as "pilfered hints" and a "Cheap Rip Off", but I'd just like to point out that my site represents an effort devoted to making a valuable site for the fans, and not made for any sort of commercial profit or intended violation or mis-attribution others' discoveries.

Ah, You've got a pretty cool site, But I wish you gave me credit (Atleast a link) for using that W&W Map I scanned in, and totally redid. )I had to digitally erase all the areas names because the type came in rather blurry, so I re-typed it all in Photoshop).

Took me a good 2 hours
