The Kuldahar Ladies Line Dancing Team

[kiwidoc]

I decided in a moment of sheer lunacy to attempt the game taking first rolls at all stages. I also decided to use a mixed race and all female team - so I have ended up with the local branch of Super Wimps Anonymous. Now I have got rather fond of my group of plucky ladies - especially the halfing cleric who sounds just like Terry Pratchetts cheerful fairy

I have been very careful to use tactics, plan everything and take it slowly. I have therefore managed to get to the "monastery" level of the Dragon Eye caves without having to redo any fights more than once or twice.

However I am stumped now, but think it is possibly more a reflection of the way my new medication is slowing up my reflexes than a way of telling me this is impossible.

Are there any other "first rollers" out there? How did you guys fare? Is it possible to do the game wihtout cheating?

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEEDURE

Hello Well I am playing the game with no cheats this time. The first time I played I played up to ch 5 with the first rolls but had to cheat I found it a little to much re-loading a bunch of times fighting orcs. So I started a new game and did change the rolls around but did not cheat. I find it a lot easier this time around. Maybe also because I have a rough idea what I will be fighting well at least up to ch 5. Up to ch 5 I found the game needing more tanks then magic. But I am playin this time with the expansion in place maybe it will be different.

Never do 1st rolls...sorry. I maximize all my characters and use only half-elves for strength and constitution bonus and elvin resistances.

I like your experiment kiwidoc.

Personally, I've always found it frustrating to roll characters in the infinity engine games. When playing pencil and paper AD&D, I used to roll character stats as one of the first things. Then I would choose the class after I had determined what my character was capable of doing. In a role-playing sense, I think this makes more sense. I mean, I wouldn't decide that I wanted to be a wizard and then worked to raise my intelligence so that I could succeed in that career. I would choose a career that fits with my personality. If I were strong, I'd be a fighter. If I happened to be wise, I'd study to be a cleric. In a true role-playing sense, I wish I could do like you and take the first natural roles for 6 individuals and then see what classes they were suited to pursue. I suppose I could use Dalekeeper to edit the classes and such, but it would be nice if I could do it without any "external" intervention.

BTW: Welcome. I've read some of your posts elsewhere. It's nice of you to join us.
