Welcome Misanthrop,

Glad to see people are still playing this game. I am still playing this game as well. I only got half way through the game and then got a new computer so started over as I didn't like my original characters. I love the characters I now have and I am kicking butt.

I love Wizards and Warriors and to all those who can't play a game unless it has updated graphics then it's their loss. The story with the spoken narration that describes new areas as you journey is what I love best about the game. I hope that DW Bradley will have a spoken narrator in his next game as well. It gives me that old D&D feeling as the DM would describe each area we came upon.
Also I like how your characters can meet tough monsters along with weak monsters and you have the choice of running or trying to fight them. It allows you to find the areas you belive are the easier levels to bring up your characters and then come back and kick butt in those areas you had problems with.

I am not sure if I ran into the skeleton monster you spoke of. I am just finishing up the Stout mines and on my way to meet the Dragon to complete the third watcher quest.

I may have met the Bone Ranger and just didn't really notice. I did however just get a copy of the Strategy book and it has a listing of all the monsters. There are 75 species and each species may be single or have multiple monsters under that species giving a grand total of 300 different monsters for Wizards and Warriors.

Here is the info for the Bone Ranger compared to a Bone Archer

Bone Archer Level 7, Hitpoints 31-52, Experience 1226

Bone Ranger Level 14, Hitpoints 84, Experience 6375

Also I found this pic of a Bone Ranger at an Australian Exhibition website,
