Hi Krull

You definitely do not need fast reflexes for this game. It is not really about killing everything in sight but about strategy - how you use your spells and position yourself in battle, how you develop each character, and how you use what you've got. I prefer continuous play as opposed to turn based because that is what I got used to and it does not require continuous pounding on the keys. While there are a lot of battles (this is RPG) there is not a lot of tension about the game. It is truly a head game, and that is probably why so many people like it so much better than other, including Balder's Gate - which is also not really fast. At 52 you are at the tail end of the "baby boomers". I bet there are players on the list who are older than you but certainly aren't going to come out and say any such thing. Get the game and enjoy the board. It's a great forum!
