Turning Undead in HoF Mode

Post by Goodgulf »

Does anybody know when a cleric can start turning skeletons in HoF Mode?
As Goodgulf stepped onto the bridge the passage echoed with an ominous dribble, dribble, and a great crowd of narcs burst forth. In their midst was a towering dark shadow too terrible to describe. In its hand it held a huge black globe and on its chest was written in cruel runes, "Villanova." "Aiyee," shouted Legolam. "A ballhog"!

They asked each other countless riddles, such as who played the Cisco Kid and what was Krypton. In the end ***** won the game. Stumped at last for a riddle to ask, he cried out, as his hand fell on his snub-nosed .38, "What have I got in my pocket?" This Goddam failed to answer, and growing impatient, he paddled up to *****, whining, "Let me see, let me see." ***** obliged by pulling out the pistol and emptying it in Goddam's direction. The dark spoiled his aim, and he managed only to de- flate the rubber float, leaving Goddam to flounder. Goddam, who couldn't swim, reached his hand out to ***** and begged him to pull him out, and as he did, ***** noticed an interesting-looking ring on his finger and pulled it off. He would have finished Goddam off then and there, but pity stayed his hand.
It's a pity I have run out of bullets, he thought, as he went back up the tunnel, pursued by Goddam's cries of rage.

I wasn't aware that HoF mode had any effect on Turning Undead. I know that in non-HoF modes clerics start turning normal skeletons around level 3 or 4, and start destroying them somewhere around level 7 or 8.
There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.

HOF does effect turning. My 7th level cleric cannot turn skeletons.
