Seems to me Hack ( Oh great game of games ) could use one new group of monsters -- police. These monsters are only activated when one robs a shop and though they be wimpy, they come in great numbers ( Bonnie and Clyde would no doubt agree! ) And they follow one from level to level and place "level blocks". If one is killed by a police, the little tag "Crime doesn't pay" would pop up and so on. I mean, heck, I feel guilty robbing all them poor defenseless shopkeepers. -- Tim L.

Instead of police they should be called the city guard or some such. They should be armed with pikes and carry small amounts of gold (from bribes?)....Hmmm, why COULDN'T you bribe them? You could use the same 'swarm' formula as for Orcs. -- Ron Christian (Watkins-Johnson Co. San Jose, Calif.) {pesnta,twg,ios,qubix,turtlevax,tymix}!wjvax!ron
