The adventure continues.

oh man i love that stats really don't matter all that much and its decisions that make it. and the writing means you don't mind getting your options wrong as it is funny!!!

More bonkers writing yet so enjoyable and maddeningly hard. To get the right path at the right time in the right order took forever!!!

but the story marches on!!

Just had some thoughts on the 'maximum' skill/stamina the average enemy should have depending on how high their skill stat is. I came up with the following:

Enemy: Skill 7 Stamina 14
Enemy: Skill 8 Stamina 10
Enemy: Skill 9 Stamina 8
Enemy: Skill 10 Stamina 6
Enemy: Skill 11 Stamina 5
Enemy: Skill 12 Stamina 4

What do you think?

I'm Writing A Gamebook

Some combat ideas:

ENEMY:

Hits do more damage each round
Hits do more damage each time it hits you
Hits do more damage each time you hit it
Hits use a damage table like the Cockotrice
Hits kill you

Takes a skill point with each hit
Takes a skill point with each hit and adds it to its own
Takes an initial skill point with each hit
Takes a luck point with each hit
Takes an inital luck point with each hit
Takes an initial stamina point with each hit
Takes a stamina point with each hit and adds it to its own
Takes 2 stamina points and a luck/skill/initial point(s)

Roll a die when it hits you: 1-2: -2 stamina 3-4: - 1 luck 5-6: - 1 skill
Roll a die when it hits you: 1-3: -2 stamina 4-5: - 1 luck 6: - 1 skill

Gains a skill point with each hit
Gains a stamina point with each hit
Gains a stamina/skill point each round
Gains a point of skill each time it's hit but loses them when it hits you

It's very strong but only needs 1 hit to kill it
It's very weak but has a very high stamina score
It's skill score is equal to your skill/luck score
Its skill is 1 point higher than yours/1-2 points lower
It's stamina is equal to yours
It will win drawn attack rounds
It can't be hurt and so has no stamina score but you can still kill it outright by rolling 2 sixes.

Ruins a provision with each hit
Ruins an item with each hit

You:

You only damage it when you win an attack round if you roll odds/evens
You only damage it when you win an attack round if you roll 1-3/4-6
You only damage it when you win an attack round if you roll a double
You only damage it when you win an attack round if you roll a certain number or above
You only damage it when you win an attack round if you roll at least 1 more point higher than its Attack Strength, then 2, then 3 and so on

Test your luck when you win an attack round or you do it no damage/1 damage
Test your skill when you win an attack round or you do it no damage/1 damage
Test your stamina when you win an attack round or you do it no damage/1 damage
Test your luck/skill/stamina each time it hits you

Lose a skill/stamina/luck point per round

Must defeat it in a certain amount of rounds
Must defeat it in less/the same amount of rounds as your skill/luck points

Test your luck/skill/stamina each time you hit it

Both

You gain a skill point when you hit it but it gains that same skill point when it hits you

OK, this is my first attempt. Got killed by the altar that blew up in a mushroom cloud. Still don't know what it is, though.

It can't be a nuclear weapon or antimatter bomb, since a blast from those things would follow Sedov's laws, whereas the "blast radius expands with the speed of light" for whatever was under that altar. Maybe a miniature blob of neutron matter accelerated to 0.999c?

In any case, I hope I'll learn what that was in a future attempt!

Given that I have never heard of any of this the best conclusion is 'a wizard did it'

For some reason I left this up for a few days before finally writing this comment. This was a nice quick play, and for that it did really well. I'm still certain I missed a few things and might come back to find the rest of them, but what I did find, I enjoyed. The choice of who you take onto your team is really great. Don't really have anything bad to say, except maybe show what your teammates stats are somewhere. 99/100

I just finish it yesterday.

Are you, per chance, interested in reading a review, kind similar to the ones I did in the past, like this:

http://www.ffproject.com/gcomf1t1s201.htm

I would love to give you my comments on this book but I am not sure how active or interested you are in this...?

I sure would like another of your reviews because they are indepth, whereas most reviews are 'I hate it' or 'Best FF ever'. Writers don't learn anything about their books from either comment.

Anyway, I look forward to your review and hope you actually liked the book.
