I just finished POR, I think. I'd like to know from other players of the game whether I'm actually finished with the game or not (i.e. whether I should go out now and buy Curse of the Azure Bonds). Here's where I am: I just killed Tyranthraxus (the dragon one, not the barbarian one) and the game automatically took me out of the castle and back to the slums, where I healed my party and got the 45,000 experience points. I gained levels, etc and am now saved in a camp in town. Is there anything more to do with the game? I've tried to go back to the castle and see what's there, but I found Tyranthraxus alive again (but not his bodyguards). What's up? Can I get the experience points again if I kill him one more time? Other missions I've accomplished: cleared out the entire old city (thieves out of Kovel Mansion, library, Podol Plaza, Kuto's Well--including ridding the catacombs of Norris the Gray, Slums, textile house, and wealthy). I've destroyed the Temple of Bane, cleared Sokal Keep, cleared the graveyard (I killed the vampire twice, including once with the efreet). I've sacked the kobold lair and the wyvern cave, made a treaty with the lizardmen in the abandoned castle, cleared out the pyramid and ended the pollution (killed Yarash), saved the heir to the house of Bivant, made a treaty with the nomads, taken a message to Zhentil Keep and escaped alive, recovered the family treasure from the textile house, and met the Silver Dragon up in the Dragonspire mountains. Whew! Is that all to the game? Is there truly a Pool of Radiance I can find? Oh, I've also killed the medusa and the barbarian who calls himself Tyranthraxus. Thanks for any help, but please don't give me any spoilers yet. Just an indication of whether there's much else to do in the game. BTW, my party consists of two 8th level fighters, a 6th level human cleric, a 6th level human magicuser, a 4th/8th level halfling fighter/thief, and a 6/5/6 level half-elf cleric/fighter/magicuser. Is this sufficient to start Curse on? Thanks lots, Marc Walkow WALKOW@campus.swarthmore.edu P.S. I've been having some trouble with the program, too. The game thinks my c/f/m-u is an NPC, although it gives me command of her during battles and so forth. I just can't have her trade anything to anyone else and she takes her share of the treasure before anyone else. Has this happened to anyone else out there? It's not really a problem, just more of a nuisance.
