Any help would be appreciated. Yeah. But, has anyone ever managed to gain a level in CSB? I have a party who spent about an hour, living off any food or drink I could get to, casting mon fireballs, and we haven't gotten a level yet. How do we gain levels, pray tell? Is it just me, or are they harder? And, is there any way to gain them faster? Please, elucidate. I haven't been able to do well at all, partially because it takes a *lot* of spells to kill monsters these days, and it's hard to get enough weaponry to kill them off. 'Specially since I haven't found the V. Swords. (Of course, the second one is obscure enough in DM I... but this is rediculous!) Does anyone have nice maps that show where things are, or other useful hints compiled? This game is *hard*. >Scott Sutherland >sutherla@qtp.ufl.edu Oh, By the way: I would bet even money that your statistic gains are even either way, so take the high-level dudes. Or, be creative, and reincarnate some of the captured people. Gets you high stats! --SeebS-- ps: Has anyone bothered to play DM with custom portraits yet? It's fun! -- mndaily is the Minnesota Daily, and does not speak for the U of M. Linda Seebach does not speak for the Daily. --SeebS-- does not speak for Linda. Marcel Marceau speaks for no one.
