I'll second that, Ivellis. Mind you, I'm such a literary pleb that i only really know poems that have been featured on the simpsons... [img]graemlins/readingbook.gif[/img]

Those flamethrowing goblins (mechanized ones) are tough!

It wasn't that bad, i have a pretty well balanced party, three tanks, three people with ranged attacks, and two spellcasters, who constantly cast "heal" whenever things get a little messy. The only time i really got into trouble was at the end, with that huge robot that came up with the elevator. And that was only because i completely ran out of health and mana potions. I also think i've been running around too long with the same weapons, but it's not like there's shopping possibilities at every angle. When i came out of that dungeon and found a merchant, i was able to buy weapons that do three times as much damage as my old ones did, and armour many times better than i was wearing at that time. I couldn't re-outfit the entire party, since everything is pretty expensive, but with my new gear, things should be a lot easier from now on. I also think i should buy donkeys, since the inventories of all 8 partymembers are full in the blink of an eye.

"Out, Out" by Robert Frost.

"Red Wheelbarrow" by William Carlos Williams.

"Let America be America Again by Langston Hughes.

I have other favorites, including Skunk Hour, but I don't feel like looking all of them up.

Just so you literary plebs have something to brag about to your literature teachers.

The Jabberwocky? Isn't that poem filled with made-up words?

[Ilander]

It is indeed.

I always swap out equipment any chance I get and then pass around the best that is being swapped out from one char to another, in that game, johnny. I know what you mean about it being hard to find a merchant sometimes (or the gold!), though! Did you find the one in the swamp? Just before the swamp area, to the left of the bridge before you enter, we found a glitched area where we picked up gold and it maxed out our gold stores! Multiple times! LOL

edit: come to think of it, I might be remembering the add on Legends of Arana with that gold glitch

Haven't found a single glitch so far thank goodness. Too many games with glitches around as it is. I did find a merchant in the swamps however, a small hovel or something, with a witch that ran it, at least i think it was a witch.

In a pinch you could also eat those donkeys. MMMMM

Well some sad news I just found out that one of the men that helped train me as a chef was killed in Calgary. Here is a link to the story. Looks like they have not caught anyone yet.
