Yeah, I'm an old time gamer, so I'm familiar with the standard hp rolls, but what puzzles me is that I seem to get a roll of 1 preternaturally often. I reloaded a save game five times in a row, and got a 1 for hp every single time. No one else has noticed something like this?

Does ToEE use some strange algorithm for rolling hit points? I've had several level-ups where the same character gets a "1" for new level hit points, and if I re-load and re-level I still get a 1. He's a multi-class fighter-rogue: does anyone know if the program has rules for determining hit points?

No, there's no accusation of cheating - and it happens whether I have magical buff spells on or not. It goes like this:
[dialogue- agree to fight]
combat mode begins
I attack - hit, 12 damage
[dialogue begins - "I beat you, laddie..."]

When I start the brawl with Tolub, I get in the first shot from my barbarian, and then Tolub declares that he has beaten me - without him even throwing a punch! I'm playing with the 2nd Atari patch, and I've had this quest work fine in previous games. Any ideas?

Perfect! Just what I needed, thanks.

When I'm using a spell that has multiple targets, and I don't use the full number of targets, I can't get to the green "go" button without losing all of my target locks. I've noticed this consistently with haste and chain lightning. Is there a trick to making this work? is this a bug? Playing with ...

Does what merchants have to sell vary throughout the game (ignoring what I sell them, natch)? How often do I need to check back for inventory updates? Otis doesn't seem to have what I need now.

Are masterwork versions of all the weapons/armor available somewhere in the game? I have a fighter specialized in the bastard sword and am looking to pick up a MW version so I can enchant it. Is there one? Where to look?

I just picked up ToEE (Amazon, ten bucks), and have heard that patching it is essential to avoid the crippling bugs. But, I've noticed there seem to be both official and unoffical (Co8?) patches - which should I use? Are there things the Co8 patch coverst that the 2.0 atari patch does not (or vice ...
