うっ (brief u sound similar to the u in 'due', cut off abruptly)
More accurate to the roblox death sound I think.

I know a bit about it because I was going to write a thread on it but never got around to it. Specifically, about how it's essentially using child labor to make gorillions of dollars.

I guess a fitting analogy most would understand is imagine if someone made a free meinkraft and then sold the worlds the autist kids made, no idea how this **** hasn't been hit by government regulators anywhere

Humies seem very weak compare to the other races. Does that change at higher levels?

Of course, all other races pale when compared to Dwarves.

Getting my *** kicked in the first area tbh. Not really sure what I'm supposed to be doing, did I miss something in the manual? I'll have to go re-read it.

Also, I entered the wizard's guild area and it decided to make the rest of my party go away even after I leave the area and I have no idea where they went woops I'm dead.

Spent 30 minutes trying to get out of the sewers without having half of my party getting killed from a failed skillcheck.

Being offered a single point of speed on level-up versus 4-5 of con/str is brutal, almost tempted to re-roll and speedmax my party.

Gonna need some assistance cause I can find no information on this.
One of my characters cannot use his left-hand slot ("L_{H} Removed"), I think he broke it during a skillcheck. Anyone knows how you are supposed to heal broken limbs in this game? I tried walking back and forth in the wilderness to let a month pass but it's still there. It's not even listed as a condition but written under the inventory section.

Must've missed it, found the tavern and the rogues guild there.
After having completed the sewers I'm a rich man with a combined wealth of 20k+ gold. Time to sail the seven seas.

Alright, time to get back into this game.
I went to Scycor and Rusty got his faulty left hand removed and got grafted a goblin fist as a replacement.

Can't believe Rusty predicted that January would be the month of tunnels and trolls...
I'm just stating the facts.
Question is are you going to gargle the truth or swallow?

I feel more like starting again with a new party than continuing with my current one so I'll give up on the win for now.

Anyone on track to finish Tunnels & Trolls?

And something not quite so ugly. Prophecy of the Shadow has charm to it and it's easy to play.

Maybe the real adventurer's guild was the friends we made along the way.

Will keep this in mind. Just found the windbag and acquired the demon's eye.
► Show Spoiler
I've discovered how to generate infinite wealth, albeit a little slow, and infinite XP, without having to engage in combat, which is fairly fast. However, the game seems to have level scaling so I am unsure of how effective it is. Other than speed, most important stat for warriors in combat seems to be luck as it increases your add+ stat, increasing both your damage and armor, as you get far more luck per levelup compared to the other stats. You'd still want to pump the other stats for skillchecks, particularly when enemies tries to push and knock you unconscious, a condition I havent figured out how to treat mid-combat effectively leaving your character dead.

Is this the prequel to the game "Tunnels of Khazaria"?
