ok, ok,...i went to virgin megastore on oxford st, and they had it for £19...so i had to buy it... D
basically, even though i used to love ad&d, and used to be a DM, it aint my thing anymore....and after reading the manual...it seems like this game is based on all the ad&d rules..hmm...well, i've bought it so i might as well play it... played the tutorial - god! theres LOADS of stuff to get yer head round.. and the manual...could they have used a smaller font eh? i feel like getting an old-persons magnifying glass to read this thing! oh well, enough whinging, i suppose i ought to play the damn thing! ...suggestions on what makes a good first-time character? Mage seems pretty complex...wondering if i should just go for a fighter? And should i be human or.. or...something else? saw the lord of the rings trailer last night at the cinema...now thats something i'm *really* looking forward to....

glad to hear you are liking it! Here is a checklist of things not to forget to do because you will be spending all your time in the game. Go through this list every night before bed.
[] Did I say Hi to my family? [] Did I visit the Ironworks forum? [] Did I eat? Do this and you should be ok. ------------------ Tremble and despair, for I am power! All here are now judged, and are found wanting. |

I am glad to hear that you are getting into it. Please be sure to complete this simple checklist at least once a day to be sure that you are not neglecting your other responsibilities in favor of our favorite game.
[] Did I say Hi to my family? [] Did I visit the ironworks forum? [] Have I eaten? (optional) If you simply do this once a day, you can rest assured that all responsabilities in the outside world are being met satisfactorialy. ------------------ Tremble and despair, for I am power! All here are now judged, and are found wanting. |

In my humble opinion the mage is the hardest first class to play to many nuances to figure out with the spells. Also the quickes to die in a hand to hand battle i know all the 1st person shooters game players try this me included . Go with a fighter first time through or untill you get the hang of tactics and game controls.
