[QUOTE=Rudar Dimble]I have started a Planescape game a couple of times, but I can't seem to get through the early stages of the game. I can see it has a lot of potential, but I really don't have a single clue on how to start. It's just to much for me to handle in the beginning. I have accepted several quest, but they all include fights I cannot win. And I want to play as a mage, but since you can't start off as one, I get killed all the time, because of my loosy stats 
. I could start with more fighter-oriented stats, but that takes they idea away of being a mage...[/QUOTE]
First, go into the southeastern city quadrant. That's directly south of you. It's main drag is a circle, so proceed south then east, very quickly. As soon as you turn east, begin looking for a door to the north. It's the tavern; get inside.
One of the habituees will be happy to join your party. Don't leave him out: he's got excellent fighting skills, an enchanted weapon, and some good secondary magic skills, too. That should make things easier for you.
And in a battle, don't forget Morte's taunting skills. If you don't mind pausing the game a lot, you can effectively keep one or two enemies engaged in chasing Morte, while the rest of your group concentrate on everybody else.
