Well, Maharlika, definetely i believe it was just pure luck for that poor cow, since it rolled 18 to save.. But the fact was really funny :D

Finger of death sucks

Anyway, I just finished Senai and was feeling kinda nasty upon my return to Ankethlan.. So I noticed three cows walking about and cast finger of death on one of them with my 21 level Sorcerer... Oh my.

Hold your breath - the cow saves and i read that i did 12 damage to the cow and now it runs ...

Xyx, interesting ideas. :cool:
They don't explain area effect spells though.. Speculating like that we will have to say that with the fireball a Golem influences only that part of it which affects him directly, and not the whole fireball.. Well, i guess that's a possible explanation.. hmm..

Ok, we have some discussion going :)

Nael, you completely missed my point. I never said anything even resembling that magic could not exist. Read on if you please.

Xyx - that's exactly what made me wonder. So fireball is a magical fireball than, not real fire - and i am perfectly fine with that ...

Cast a freedom spell in the area near that weird structure which releases lich, warriors etc when you click on it.
I'm not sure the mage will appear when you got the eggs and done with the drow city though.

Magic & Physics

This post should probably go to AD&D section, but since I learned what AD&D is by playing BG1/2 (and the only other CRPG that i enjoyed almost as much was Realms of Arcania series, btw - anyone played that one? - and it used a different system) - i thought what's the heck.. Where else do i get ...

Quick question - is there any way to remove a character from the party?

I just can't figure that...

Quite a mess :)
But i got the idea, thanks!

So, all the monsters use d8 for rolling? Why? I mean, they have to keep track of not only hit points but of HD for each monster too, for the sake of determining how this or that spell affects it. So how do they decide which monster rolls how many times ...

What is a "hit dice"?

As in many spells descriptions we read something like "creatures with 4 HD or less have no save, 6HD are not affected" or something similar.. So what does this hit dice mean? How is it related to hit points? Level?

Because i don't exactly understand that i don't know when which spell to use, and ...

Soloing multiclass but not a thief - what about traps?

I was thinking about soloing the game as a F/M/C, but i was wondering what to do with the traps in that case? I mean i can detect them with detect traps but how do i disarm them? I don't think there's a spell like that...

Getting AD&D 3rd edition

Could anyone suggest anything on how to resolve my little problem?
I know WOTC sell the thing, and I would gladly pay 20 bucks a piece for the books, but getting them to russia would cost me another $70 bucks in shipment which is actually more than the actual product cost. I have no desire to throw ...
