To the ill-mannered Calista and Co., Well, the 2nd Army has gotten off to much the same start as the first. The lead scout is already dead (that's 20 total...
Greetings Androhil, By now you've heard how Calista Sureshot and her band chopped up a few fellow adventurers... nearly killed them (it certainly wasn't for a...
Queen of the Universe to carnival freak huckster all in one easy dive! Pretty nimble... Of course someone would have to be Really Stupid to imagine they could ...
Serious mood swings there, IzaRanter. A couple days ago you were at the manic "Bwaa Haa Haa I'm coming to take over the world!" Now you're at the downturn...
I just wanted to let as many people as possible know ahead of time that a few characters died last turn due to my finally implementing the idea that hitting...
1 000 cp? I wouldn't even unsheath my mighty weapon for less than ten times that amount! Have you been undead so long that inflation has passed you by? even...
OK newbies, listen up! Yah gotta stop firing at yer buds. We got enuf dead things tah worry 'bout wiffout recruitin' each other fer t'other side! Now repeat...
I'm afraid that's called 'wield practice sword', 'attack <willing victim>', 'heal'. Bob ... From: Michael Kelly <miteke@...> Subject: [Androhil] Re: GM...
This seems a much more fair way to practice and gain experience imo than attacking yourself. I am glad for the change, as it seemed cheap to just be able to...
That can have some unfortunate side affects too, since that person automatically changes you to enemy status. Next thing you know that character is returning...
yeah, the spar order looks good to me too. but why cant we ban the order to attack being used on yourself? who the hell ever heard of someone attacking...
Ouch! What did he say? ... yeah, the spar order looks good to me too. but why cant we ban the order to attack being used on yourself? who the hell ever heard...
In my mind I just rewrote the "attack self" as "extremely intense practice". There OUGHT to be a practice order and this just took the place of it. You need...
Personally I think the full maximum damage is just right. After all, if you are stupid enough to actually hit yourself continously, in an attempt to commit...
Wow - harsh! But amusing, definitely amusing :) ... Actually, maybe everytime you hit yourself you should start decreasing your intelligence along with...
Regarding the 'practice' order people have suggested -- the idea makes some sense, but my impression is that it benefits several skills at the expense of...
Since we can in effect 'practice' most things in a safe setting, by doing them, I'd vote for officially being able to practice anything - with the caveat that...
This is a bit tricky - because there will always be some players who abuse any system brought in to 'practice' skills. Having said that - I think the way some...
What about another option: The Lore skill you can only take so far with practice -- other skills might be subject to the same limitation? Training one percent...
I'm not even sure this is the right way to go Bob - lets see what everyone else thinks :) Limiting the increase from practicing to - say - level 3 sounds OK -...
There is only so much practice you can do before you have to 'improve by doing', if practicing is going to be allowed to improve skill it should do so at a...
Actually ... those who have tried to buy and sell small items repeatedly should by now have noticed that they don't gain much in terms of Haggling skill from...
I think that we should be able to train any skill, at a rate of 1% per action point. That way characters that are doing nothing can slowly train in skills, and...
Am looking forward to registering at a Fighters Guild, Mages Guild and so forth ... From: Robert Fry <rafry@...> Subject: Re: [Androhil] Practice options ...
I can't believe people really feel the need to spend so much time lurking around doing 'nothing'. C'mon guys, it's supposed to be an 'adventure' game - get out...
I would love to have the practice order. 1) I like the current system where as you get higher level, the increases are harder to come by. Don't cap it,...
