Re: First time playing CSB

I know it's cheating, but there IS a walkthrough for CSB. I find the game a challenge even when I'm following it.

Re: Chaos strikes back - with one Champion

Oh, one thing I forgot to mention is that using a Vorpal Blade levels up your Wizard skill, not your Fighter or Ninja skills as other melée weapons do (well okay, they're mostly Fighter-bse but I''m pretty sure daggers give Ninja exp). So maybe it's one of the more magic-based stats that determines...

Re: Chaos strikes back - with one Champion

I seem to remember using Hissssa when I chose to complete the game with just one character. I've always played using CSB For Windows though, so when you encounter your first Screamer, it's very easy to gain Priest levels simply by using War Cry on the bugger.

Re: Cannot find the entrance to DAIN with flying snakes

The Rive level is without a doubt (for me) the hardest part of CSB. If you choose the DAIN path last, you may have picked up along your way a Staff of Irra and a Yew Staff, both capable of casting dispell, although for a limited amount of uses. You should also have in your inventory a Vorpal Blade. ...

Levelling up at end of game

Since Lord Chaos can't be killed with weapons, can you still level up your fighter and ninja skills by hacking away at him?

Which version?

I've been playing CSB for Windows a lot, purely for ease of use. I understand its a clone of the Atari ST version. However, I want to play the Amiga version, or at least a clone of it, on my PC, so which is the best version/clone/whatever to download? Ease of use is pretty important to me, but if I ...
