• (N15 E4) Stable. Jerome the stablemaster says… “Sorry Friends, all of the horses have been eaten by creatures!”
• (N15 E0) An Iron Gate. You stand before the city gates, which are blocked by a gigantic snow drift.

Searching the room, you discover some parchment from the Adventurer’s Guild Handbook. It reads:

• (N6 E7) After battles you may find items which go into a pool for anyone to use. Sell or drop items if your party inventory gets too full.
• (N7 E29) Deeper dungeons require a higher hide-in-shadows skill. Keep upgrading your skill to 100 and beyond or you will be discovered more often.
• (N9 E29) Manage your spell points carefully. Don’t waste a spell if you can accomplish the same thing without magic. Torches, for example, often work as well as magic light spells. On the other hand, don’t be shy about using magic in combat. When in doubt, blast ’em with magic.
• (N10 E22) Be sure that your party is fully healed before entering a new dungeon.
• (N11 E7) When you are finding your bearings in a maze, remember that each succeeding level goes UP in a tower or castle and DOWN in a dungeon.
• (N12 E21) Your highest dexterity character will attack earliest in combat. target particularly nasty monsters with spells and attacks from high dexterity characters first. Your less dexterous characters may not survive long enough to get in a first strike.
• (N12 E26) Avoid traps. Higher level rogues are excellent at opening chests, but when in doubt use the ‘Trapzap’ spell.
• (N13 E21) Use your spells and Bard songs to lower the armor class of your entire party. The lower the better.
• (N16 E1) You can minimize damage by killing off monsters in melee range first. Non-magic users, further than 10′ away, will need to advance before they can attack.
• (N16 E21) Many of the undead monsters are capable of draining experience levels, turning characters old and gray or even turning characters to stone. Treat the undead with respect. In other words, kill them quickly.
• (N16 E26) There’s dungeons deep underneath Skara Brae… sewers, catacombs, the castle and more, each more dangerous than the one before.
• (N18 E23) Explore and map every square in every maze. There are ‘Magic Mouths’ that give hints. There are 1-of-a-kind magic items and spell regeneration zones. Good maps will show you the logical spots for secret doors and secret rooms too.
• (N19 E0) Monsters are smart. They usually attack your most vulnerable characters first, unless one of your members represents a significant threat.
• (N19 E29) Beware Doppelganger monster. It enters your party and looks just like one of your members.
• (N2 E9) If you are attacked by more than 2 groups of monsters, concentrate on magic users first. If you cannot kill off all the magic-using monsters, you may want to cast anti-magic spells to protect against illusions, possessions and other spells.
• (N21 E21) You can use ‘Trapzap’ to disarm any traps you encounter.
• (N21 E7) Develop a Sorcerer fast. They are very useful in dungeons. Wizards are extremely important in advanced levels: they can summon demons, extremely powerful specials. Develop an Archmage, too. You’ll need one; you’ll want more.
• (N22 E21) Don’t venture too far into any dungeon without your maximum spell points. A good rule is to leave a dungeon when you are down to one quarter of your maximum spell points.
• (N23 E22) Locate traps, second sight and sorcerer sight spells all identify traps within 30 feet. Trapzap spell disarms all traps within 30 feet.
• (N24 E10) Cast a long lasting Bard spell right before entering a tavern. It’s like getting a free spell.
• (N25 E10) Generally, the more expensive the item is, the better it works.
• (N25 E10) Generally, the more expensive the item is, the better it works.
• (N25 E25) There are no cursed or bad items.
• (N26 E12) Don’t be stingy. Equip your fighters with the best armor, weapon, shield, helmet and gauntlets money can buy. After all, they can’t take it with them.
• (N27 E19) Every mage should know where Roscoe’s Energy Emporium is. He will regenerate your magic if the price is right.
• (N27 E22) Seek out Review Board. You need to visit there to be awarded new levels and spells.
• (N27 E4) The temples ca heal your wounds, cure your illnesses and even bring back the dead for the right donation.
• (N27 E6) Experiment with all items you find to determine their capabilities. Magical items are key to success. remember that an item may only be usable for certain characters and classes, so trade items around if you have to.
• (N28 E24) By the way, the tavern on Rakhir Street is the only tavern that serves wine. And that wine “goes down” easily. You may wish to drop by to wet the whistle of your Bard. Good luck!
• (N29 E15) If your spell points aren’t recharging fast enough, go see Roscoe. But be prepared for electrifyingly high fees.
• (N29 E21) Temples are divine places of resurrection and complete healing. In fact, this is the only place to cure characters who have been withered or turned to stone.
• (N29 E5) Gold you receive in battles is pooled for the party and can be used to buy weapons, heal your wounds or regenerate your spell points.
