Thanks for posting this Charlie. I'm thinking of buying. Waiting to hear if multi-play is possbible. But may buy it anyway!

Wyvern, thanks for sending that sell it post up. Going to go check it out.

I don't think multi is an option, deary. I could be wrong, but there really wasn't much of a choice for it anywhere. Someone more learned than my paltry 8 hours of experience want to chime in?

Thanks BK,

Hmmm..well, it doesn't kill the idea entirely, for me, but I really am addicted to multi-play gaming now! Will still look into W & W, though. Guess I may never get back to Age of Empires again...LOL

I think Multiplayer was planned for it (as you can see in some of the design) but was dropped at the final moment because it would have doubled the size of the install and the sysreq's of the game. It also had something to do with the ceilings of the dungeons not being high enough for it.

Wizards & Warriors is kind of like a good game of solitaire. You play it on your own, then come in here and discuss it. It does have a "cult" following, as most of us will attest. It's also highly based upon the Sir-Tech "Wizardry" worlds, especially Wiz 6 and 7, as many role classes and "critters" carried over to this game from the Wizardry milieu.

Hey Paul, nice to see you mate. Our paths haven't crossed for a little while sadly. You get your truck sorted?

Mandatory W&W question.

Is my cross bow really cross.....or just a little angry?


(Charlie...hoping to God there's a crossbow in the game.)

One love, peace.


Da Management !!

LOL Charlie! Yep, there's crossbows, shortbows, and longbows in the game. You can also bless up the arrows to make them lethal...and Archers can learn to replicate them automatically (Fletchery) trait. Once they get that, you don't have a problem with $$ anymore! Regular arrow manufacturers they are. Especially on those Dragon arrows!

Three large overland areas, with 10 main dungeons and lots of other exploratory places. The dungeons all tend to be VERY big, with the exception of Castle Shurugeon, which I think is the smallest one...or it may be the Crypt (the starter dungeon). I don't know about that, though...the Crypt is the biggest gotdang starter dungeon I ever saw in my life!
