Hi all.
Simple question: What does the Tales of the Sword Coast add to BG? I've got hold of the DVD version of the game that has both on it (I think).

For Example:
If you have Edwin + Minsc In Your Team, They Will Always Insult Each Other, And Eventually Have A Fight (their circles go purple) this will result in all the good people in your party vs all the evil ones

Oh, that's a lesson to learn well quickly. I heard this story once (scary)

Somebody who was playing as a fighter, alignment good, came to the friendly arm with Imoen (good), Xzar and Montaron (evil) in his group. He took Khalid (good) and Jaheira (neutral). Khalid and Montaron got into a fight - so it was the guys main char, Imoen and Khalid vs. Xzar and Montaron. However, Jaheira is a druid and always goes with the weaker side. So she joined Xzar and Montaron (uh oh). Jaheira killed Khalid. So... evil and good NPCs DON'T MIX.
I am also considering getting ToTSC (among others). I hope it's worth it.

Thanks guys!

I've just installed Tales of the Sword Coast, and found one problem: Everytime I start the game it wants me to insert disc one of Baldur's Gate (which is on my DVD) followed by disc six (Tales of the Sword Coats CD).
Otherwise it looks great!
I have also come across the Jaheira & Kahlid vs. Xzar & Montaron: I ended up just avoidinbg talking to the later two.

BTW has anyone else actually kept that annoyingly manic depressive elf in the party? The one with the Moon Blade.

This can happen even before ToSC installed. Once I (paladin I think) went into Friendly Arms Inn with Imoen, Xzar and Montaron. Jaheira and Khalid joined us and someone started insuling - I dont remember who actually. Anyway Khalid and Jaheira started fight with Montaron and Xzar. At this point I intervened and because I was good I helped to kill evil guys

Yea, On Very RARE occassions this happens - but it happens more on TOTSC for realism!

About the other post, Disc 6 is another word for the TOTSC Cd

If you put in Disc 6 first, the autostart thing should come up and then you wouldn't have to put in 1 then 6. at least that's my computer.

Of ToSC? The same -Sarevok. It is not like ToB - after the main game. ToSC are supposed to happen just before the final.
