Holy Attack Energy, Batman, this game is more complicated than Dos. The manual alone is a small novel. I'm use to point and click interfaces and actions. heh But I've only begun to fight. Oh hang on. Today when I click on the exe file i'm getting the message: ADOM session is aborted because of an external problem.

Yeah, if you stopped playing without using the quit key they game won't restart because there is a file which not been deleted. ADOM use that file mainly to prevent cheating, so you must delete that file before restarting play again.

Look at the error it should say which file.

Thanks, Eagle of Fire. I spotted it a moment after I posted the message. Once the prc file is removed it works fine. k: Wellll, here goes.... :Titan:

This is the character the game randomly generated for me. Coincidently I can relate to most of this. :angel:

---------------------------- BACKGROUND INFORMATION ---------------------------
YOUR HISTORY:

Your mother is a mighty enchantress. She is unmarried. Your father is
living in the vicinity of your mother's tower. He is a humble shepherd.
As a child you lived through happy days. Your parents tried to ease
your life as much as possible and gave you a lot of comfort.
In your youth you became seriously ill and suffered for many years.
When your disease finally was cured you were left weakened, both physically and
spiritually, and bereft of the joys of youth.
As a young adult you spent a lot of time searching for a deeper meaning

your interest. Finally, after many many hours, you made a decision.
You decided to become a Healer.

I still maintain that this game is unfair, but for a different reason this time, BLINK DOGS! Where are they all coming from? I just got swamped last time by about 20!

Blink dogs are nothing. Wilderness encounters with Jackalweres are worse.

Blink dogs are nothing. Wilderness encounters with Jackalweres are worse.

But are still nothing for an experimented player.

The best trick to learn for a newbie char is to know when to run and when to stand.

Jackelware's are simple compared to that damnable sea hydra or black dragons or air elementals (My highest was a level 21 char a couple of years ago (before the character traits were introduced) on my old 486)

Air Elementals, Swamp Hydrae, and Black Dragons aren't hard to avoid in most situations. If you aren't ambushed, you can usually get away if you make a bee-line for the edge of the wilderness tile. If the Black Dragon or Air Elemental gets within bolt range, just stay out of their line of fire.

Indeed but by the time I get to them, I feel like I could easily take em and I die

Cmon, show us your scores and stuff.

Sorry, but I think showing you a dump file like you did on the first page completely pointless.
