Thanks for the welcome Cloudbringer.
This is only the 2nd forum I have ever been been a part of. The other was for a rogue type game called Zangband. I downloaded a graphical version of the game called ZangbandTK. The game was very simplistic in its graphics but the gameplay was was spot on. The option of IronMan mode in Wiz 8 was the only option in all the rogue type games. Very scarey at times

The forum for Zangband was very much like this one. Tolerant of newbies and always willing to help. And also one that I would be comfortable with my 11 year old daughter looking at.
Unfortunately the ZangbandTK site is no more......I never did get a reply from the home page as why........
Thanks to all of you out there that have replied to my earlier posts. I am REALLY looking forward to posting when I get Wiz8....and I am trying to take as much advice as I can digest from all the postings so far.
