I wrote off many afternoons playing this in school. If you look in the latest Amiga World (p 63) you'll find something that will no doubt delight you and every other Wizardy/Dungeonmaster fan out there. A new Wizardry! (Bane of the Cosmic Forge) From what the add says, it doesn't look all that bad, either. Some of the features: -Dungeonmaster like view-point -400 items of armor and weponry -11 Races -14 Professions w/ Ranks -Dozens of Weaponry, Physical, and Academia skills -Multiple Fighting and Parry modes -Ranged, Primary, and Secondary Weapons -Six spellbooks, 462 spell combinations -Multiple Armor Classes -Artifical Intelligence when talking to others I am definately waiting for this game...:-) (I only hope my wallet is ready! :-) ) -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Barcik - InterNet: scottb@disdom.UUCP WWIV-Net: 3@5309 USENET: ....!uunet!glacier!disdom!scottb ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "...and now back to our previously scheduled newsgroup..."
