Do some save-load action and get RB quests from all four in say 4-5 cities and get an nice quickstart to your game with loads of money. You also get hanse with...
... And it makes sense. The Fuggers and the Hanse are probably not going to chum it up, discussing who they paid for what jobs (especially for the sneakier...
I was just wondering... how do you get the money from the mayors? Whenever i go back there is never any option to talk to them about killing the raubritter or...
... You just go in to "inquire about services", or ask to see him (I forget the exact wording). I've had more problems in getting compensation if I go through...
Here's a fun way to get unlimited relics. And 35-45Q plate armor. When you do the fortress monastary, don't complete it. Go everywhere except the last room....
... Pretty cool. Do you have to do everything but the last room? I seem to recall coming back and having it be mostly empty... but probably I just didn't do...
I'm a bit slow on my reply, but when I'm strapped for cash, I use this a great deal: I typically go to four or five cities, and convince each of the following...
... Nope, they don't. The source code suggests that others (blacksmith, church) might, but I haven't seen that, either. The list is: error goods merchant ...
Funny you mentioned the blacksmith... As I was writing this post, I had a vague recollection that I'd had a blacksmith offer several games ago, but I figured...
In addition to the trick someone recently mentioned regarding getting high quality plate armor at the beginning of the game, another thing I usually do is get...
No, you don't have to do the whole thing. You can even just do just the first 2 rooms by the cemetary again and again to collect the 45Q potions (send Hanse to...
... I could also be mistaken. The last few years I've been roaming the countryside, just playing in a casual sort of way, so I haven't taken on the Templars....
Hi! Every Winter, or every other Winter, my party goes to school in Köln. Downside: I used up all the saints in that great city. Which other cities have a...

A good idea! Although winter is also a great time for strong parties...

Sorry, there seems to be something up with the web interface for the group. If you rely on automatic line wrapping, it really does a hard wrap, and, due to...

I spend my winters in Nurnberg. Level 39 quality arms and armor, and while not as large as Koln, still has a pretty respectable selection of goods. Carl H...
Hi! For you gentle DOSBox specialists, an annoying problem occurs to me in "indoors" adventures, like castles and mines and caves: after a while the keyboard...
A similar thing happens to me periodically. I think DosBox reacts to some keystroke and stops listening to the keyboard. The solution I found is to use the...
The solution I found is to use the "Quit To Dos" menu item. After the "Quit To Dos? Y/N" prompt comes up everything suddenly gets fixed and you can press 'n' ...

Hey ppls, Just so people don't think I am slacking off, I have started work on "AlchemyEngine". This "should" be easier than the CombatEngine, which is inching...
Hi, Jose', Never had a problem with the keyboard situation, sorry. However, with the Tarhelm quests if you REACH for it and end up in the catacombs you usually...
Woah, it never even occurred to me to try to use that as a weapon for some reason. Cool. I seem to remembering it being shrunken down or something in the...
Nurnburg. I seem to recall that Nurnburg has 37Q weapons and armor in every game. I also remember some city in the Northwest having 38Q weapons. Maybe they...
Leipzig is 'home' for me. It's within 2 boat hops from Magdeburg, Freiburg and even Hamburg. A location rivaled only by Koln (maybe). Universitats are only...
Ok, moral question here: what do you usually do with Hanse (or Schultz) when his time is up? Do you: A - Let him leave with all his stuff B - Take the...
