I still love how it’s totally possible to lose the legendary Sommersword and never get it back.

That was pretty terrible. Flip a coin. Heads you die. Tails you also die.

Per the game rules, you can even just discard it wherever, whenever you want. That's what I did for one of the Seventh Sense cheevos: just "plunk" dropped it into the Holmgard Harbour after smiting Zargana with it. But yeah, there are a bunch of different ways to lose it. Any time you're instructed to discard a weapon, if you don't have any normal weapons, you have to delete a weapon-like special item, and if the only one of those you have is The 'Swerd, welp. The Tekaro sewers' Dakomyd spawning room in book 6 comes to mind. I stumbled upon such a section in book 16 where all your weapons, including special items, are confiscated. That was a reset.

exmachina posted:Mindshield. In a full-length LW book I might disagree, but in these shorter ones there isn't room for as many fights and 2 CS isn't going to save us that much EP. Meanwhile, this series seems to have a lot of opponents nuking us for multiple EP out of combat which Mindshield would probably prevent or at least reduce, in addition to its in-combat applications.

The DarkLord's Return posted:Goragik taps her claws against each other in an irritated fashion. She glares across the room at Lakaast, obviously not pleased at his insistance. “Even a small minded squirm like you should know that a massive strike from the tower top will aid us much more than the minor battles that happen below.” She snarls angrily.

What would a great military strategist do? Probably make sure the rear of our forces aren’t potentially compromised by traitors, strike a large majority of the enemy, signal the army you are coming into your destiny, get a good view of the whole battle, and kill four birds with one stone. The tower.

She appears as mysteriously as she always does, strangly out of thin air, seeming to come from nowhere to meet you. She fumes, angry at Lakaast’s stubborness. “I cannot seem to make the fool Xagash see common sense.” She complains, “It is as if he expects you to die the instant you set foot in the tower.”

We'll join the battle instead.The DarkLord's Return posted:“Wise choice, young champion.” Lakaast congratulates as Goragik fumes. “Before you begin, perhaps you should equip yourself for the journey.” He brings you to a storeroom where you may choose from the following items.

I feel like "Don't go to the tower the inhabitants are more paranoid and loaded for bear than your average prepper" is information they could have just put into the first paragraph. South Gate

Well that was a somewhat interesting YLAYQEH, at least. I like when this series describes an aftermath, such as an "I done hosed up" from the antagonists, as seen here. See also: Vonitar and his Doomstone, illegal dwarf miner and his Bor Musket. Let's help the front door (south gate).

The Northern sector of Helgedad is alive with troops scurrying to and fro in anxious alarm, for in the middle of the wall a breach has occurred, a gaping hole blasted through the ciity’s defenses by the arcane powers of the Brotherhood of the Crystal Star.

achtungnight posted:Calvary charge! The DarkLord's Return posted:Walking up to a one of the Drakkarim Junior Officers, you order the warrior to give him his horse, instead he stares up at you malevolently. In the Drakkarim, war is honor, and avoiding combat is considered cowardice, yet you need a mount if you are to join in the cavalry. For him, though, it is a matter of honor, honor you have sullied, and instead of allowing you to join in the charge, as would be sensible considering your experience and rank, he instead whips out his weapon, threatening to fight you if you so much as dare to try to prevent him from going. You could ask another, but as he is the most junior of all those included in this regiment, it would be of little use, you would only get the same response from any other.
