Welcome to the board, Mygrayne!!!
Nice to have you posting after seeing you browsing for so long!
And many thanks for the compliments for our nice, helpful forum/posters! I think we have all had bad experiences on other forums at one point or another which is why we try extra hard here to make our forum friendly! SO much better that way!!
I think Methdu is a god or possibly a Toad warrior/leader that got dropped from the finished game.
The only place I found in the game where I really would have liked to put out markers was in the Stout Mines! I found that place confusing at times. What I ended up doing there was using tons of flags on the automap (which is awful but better than nothing). I had flags marked with things like "go right next tunnel" etc. especially when the automap was going to switch from one to another. Would have been so nice to have been able to scroll back to the previous area or next area as needed. In what sort of areas are you wanting to put markers? I know I've been playing CRPGs for ages so maybe I've just gotten really good at remembering the countryside (I'm sure I could probably do a run through the first Wizardry game dungeons without thinking twice! lol!).
I never noticed an difference in where you target the enemy. I don't think specific locations on the target's bodies are actually separate. I always thought you had the whole monster in your target or not so it shouldn't matter where your cursor happens to be.
