lol, sorry, i did start this, but the saved game has been re-shuffled since then!
I still want to see the new ending...one day...
Was unable to (permenantly) kill off ian_scho (Haynuus), Ameena, oh_brother (Westian), money (Falkor), raixel (Petal) and Lord_Bones (Aurek) in the DM D&D game Time's Champions!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE WHO MADE THE GAME WHAT IT WAS - GREAT!

Ahhh, I am glad somebody had tried it. The words 'lead' and 'balloon' had sprung to mind...

I remember trying it, however, I gave up after repeatedly dying from thirst. Guess I'll give it another go...

Interesting... I remember being a little sparse with the water fountains, but if you know where they are (as obviously I did), then you wouldn't have a problem. Maybe I need to look from the potential player's eye rather than my own.

Actually, I never found a waterskin or flask.

It is difficult to differentiate between a challenge and an easy dungeon. I do not know. If you can't do it, you can't do it, maybe I should give up, or create walkovers!!! Only joking, I appreciate anybody who tries what I do. Thankyou.

Wow, three exclamation points. I must be an idiot for not finding a flask.
Anyway, trying the game again I remember exactly why they died of thirst. It was because I spent too much time leveling up against the dragon. But now I have a bota and flask and things are great... except I don't know how to get to the next part. Oh well, I'll find out soon enough I guess.

This dungeon looked promising, and would be great if it wasnt so impossibly and tediously hard. Rockpile's with 3000 health? Whats the point?

Also some of the puzzle's are obscure, how are we supposed to know where the invisible walls are? I had to cheat and look up the dungeon on DMUTE. In short, this dungeon is unplayable unless you have a map of the dungeon, I have got a map and now cannot be bothered, there's one level where lightning bolts are wizzing around and you have to find invisible walls along a wall, then you get attacked by a pair of knights and then materializers. The guy who made this dungeon is obviously very skilled, but all the time spent making the BLACK FLAME is a waste im afraid, it's just too hard and obscure.

This has been converted to CSBWin and updated. This version is obsolete. Try going to the other forum.

Invisible walls? How do you suppose you find them, should I put flags on them? Get exploring. They are invisible for a reason. And yes, the rockpiles did have 3000 points, but as you looked at the editor you will realise they didin't need to be killed and were not in the way.

Hopefully you will find the waste a little easier in CSBWin!
