"BTW, anyone heard something about WarrGrin ? He once wanted my opinion about his mod. I wrote PN and mails but haven't reveived an answer from him ( for about 2 months now ).

I want to tell him more because I've finished the Umpani maps now but without a sign of life I don't know if it makes sense to write reports."

Sorry I havn't had alot of time to respond to concerns (though I have read most of the posts and greatly appreciate the praise and the criticisms of the mod....most will be 'addressed' in the next update this month sometime....)...Alot of Real Life stuff happened (sickness, daughters birthday, job transfer, busy summer with 3 weddings, etc) but I have been working on the mod in my 'spare' time and have hopefully addressed alot of the 'huge/long battles' aspect. I've taken out most of the 'friendlies' except for recruitable characters and a few that I just couldn't delete for fear of 'lost flavor' (most of the monestary friendlies are still there) and the wandering monster mobs were ratcheded down a few notches as well.

Lots of new items and a few re-done spells and monsters have had their 'cast' lists altered (less eye/eye and protective spells so parties stand a chance)....Definitly LEVEL 1 friendly, no need for an editor to add experience or anything...

Totally re-did Summon Elemental spell, called Summon Monster now (reminisicent of the old AD&D summon monster I-IV spells) that can summon one of four different monsters for each level of the spell and they are of 'appropreate' level for the party (no more elemental cakewalks.....).

Also altered a few of the lower level spells and added some monster and item only spells (only avalable on rare items and 'boss' monsters...added a few more 'giants' and unique monsters and played around with the casting level of the creatures now that its an available option.....)

Anyway....enough babbling for now...again thank you for your replies. They are a great help in the continuing evelution of this mod....
