You're in for some fun when you wake up the earth elementals on that level. Look for a couple of secret buttons on this level. --Chuck McManis uucp: {anywhere}!sun!cmcmanis BIX: cmcmanis ARPAnet: cmcmanis@sun.com These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.

And the Flamit is not a real help against Chaos (but it does work on the fire elementals on the level). I hope you read every scroll _very carefully_. I've actually finished twice now, with two different groups. One stumbling around and one just to see how fast it could be done. My wife is threatening to skin me alive if I try a third run :-). DM is still the best damn computer game I've seen, despite the copy protection. -- Hal O'Connell Cognos Incorporated UUCP: uunet!mitel!sce!cognos!halo P.O.

Box 9707 Speaking of the copy protection: my copy had ceased to work on my semi-flakey drive simply because of the copy protection. Fortunately, I got a copy of NIB 1.0, and voila! the copy works beautifully. [Growl! I despise copy protection!!!] Oddly enough, though, NIB writes a custom bootblock. This displays a nifty bit of scrolling blue (I'm not in description mode tonight, you'll just have to see it yourself), and appears to be harmless. Still, though, I power up before using it and power down afterwards. Next time I feel adventurous, I'll try seeing what happens if I Install a normal bootblock onto the disk. [No, I still haven't solved it; but all I have to do is (a) remember where I left my save disk, and (b) kill the bad guy before he kills my group (again).] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- John Lockhart jwl@feanor.stanford.edu BIX: jlockhart
