Hi. As far as I am aware, the thieves have nothing to do with your success or failure in the end. They are just useful contacts for information if you can get them to talk but are not worth worrying with as you have lots of alternatives. When you are given the opertunity to consult the thieves in the first instance when seeking information concerning the necromancer, you have the option of using your mental powers or seeking the words on the streets as well. The next time you are offered the opertunity to consult the thieves concerns the tracking down of ... but you can avoid them as well if you are level headed and explore the other avenues open to you. Hope this helps. Got any more questions, email me on igucukoglu@hotmail.com |

Spoiler: Ah, I figured the ending where the thieves killed you had to do with that little bit where you forced the thieves to kill that guy that shot at you when you caught his bolt. I avoided them when I went through the story and got thre true ending. |

Probably should have said one of the true endings. I still want to know what hapens when you get the

but I'm too lazy to play through the storyline again. |

Well, the ending isn't too bad.

| Could I suggest that you use the spoiler tag for this kind of thing, there may be people reading who would prefer to discover the endings for themselves. |

Sorry about that. Will pay more attention in the future to the buttons. I know this'll be a question you've often heard, but are there any plans to put more books online? Have you figured out a way of sorting the combat in isle of the cyclops yet? Also, has andrew right considered writing a full length book for the site? Someof the senarios in the black lobster look promising especially the one about the wizard yaztromo. |
| With Isle Of The Cyclops, it isn't just the rules that are a problem, but its concepts of freer movement and open-endedness. I would like to do something with it, but I haven't decided exactly what yet. |

Luck saves lives in combat Tue Jan 24 16:50:19 2006 General Chat |
Why are you so insitent on not letting people use luck in combat? Its not a stupid option, I have died sevral times in these books because you would not let me! They were designed so that people could use luck. I mean this program is cool and all, but why did you neglect this and insist on doing so? |

Personally, I don't like the fact that luck is even a part of the equation to begin with. I'd rather live or die on my own merits. A lot of game books and RPGs use luck, I'm just not a fan of it at all. But since it is, I try to get as much luck as humanly possible. *grin* S |

Ditto, I always perffered the Fate system in the Skyfall books, even if book 1 and 2 were cruddy. But Luck is an important part of the ff system, and when the writers design it be used as a strategic option, and when it can mean the difference between life and death, it should not be cut out |

Oh, reading through thte pages, You could make luck in combat an item. You use it, it rolls as normal and takes a luck off your stat |

I don't think it's a matter of not the administrator not wanting to use luck in combat on the site; I think it's that it's a programming issue. At any rate, even if he wanted to, it would be a ton of work, I'm sure, to go back and reprogram all of the adventures, especially for a site that he maintains on his free time. Keep in mind also that all of the adventures can be accessed from the link section, so you could print them out and play them with whatever features you like. |
| It's a bit of both. I don't think it would be quite as hard as you describe, but it's not trivial either. I have no interest in adding the feature, so any time I have available to spend on this site simply isn't going to be used for this purpose. |

You can try looking in www.advancedfightingfantasy.com. I believe there's a solution for this book available there. There used to be one in www.fightingfantasy.com as well, but I think the owner redirected that site. |

Just read The Black Lobster. Its fun and well written, but seems really, really unfair. How the hell are you supposed to survive the final chapther? Those 2 fights would be almost impossiable, even if you could use luck, but without it your just plainly screwed. And having read the text verison (theirs no way out of said fight!), the ending seems contrived and thrown together |
|
shadowdragon Sun Feb 12 21:47:42 2006 The Black Lobster |
The ending fight was rather simple, you just have to have the right item. I agree that was a pretty good book. |
|
Gamebook Fanatic Mon Feb 13 14:12:28 2006 The Black Lobster |
Actually, there is a way out of the final fight, but you need to make the right choice in an earlier chapter to get a secret reference. You only have one chance to make that choice, and once you miss it, it's gone. You might want to play through the book again to look for it. Since the book is pretty short, it's not that hard to find. If not, here's the answer:
SPOILER
But yeah, I agree that if you choose to fight, it's pretty hard to win, since your starting skill can never be higher than 9. |
