RE: MONSTER ISLAND From: jeff.leggett@datadim.com (Jeff Leggett) Date: Tue, 25 May 1993 14:40:00 +0000 -> Yeah, I started playing MI not too long ago. I've got a male viper -> through his 17th turn, and haven't gotten out of the Central -> Westlands yet (I know, I know, I'm moving). A lot of fun, but -> obviously I can't give a lot of practical advice. I've found a -> Kabuki prayer stone, but I'm not ready to make a commitment yet. -> Anything specific on MI anyone want to talk about? Not really, I was just curious as to who here played as I just got access to the net. I have three monsters one on turn 55 (a viper), one on turn 32 (a monger), and one on turn 18 (a norman). My viper and monger are members of Fuvah's Fearless Fighters and are currently in the area between Drokorn's Stead and Dark Eagles Nest Far Inns. One piece of advice I will give you is to loot dark places as much as possible. I cleaned out a hillock (with 16 Knolltir) over about 15 turns and when I had finally killed the last one I got great treasure: a shadow sword, a short sword, 2 scrolls, and a kudo bone. The shadow sword is by far the best item as it is a damage class 4 pointed weapon against everything and against followers of gods other than Fuvah does double damage. Should be helpful in becoming a priest. I have all the internet newsletters up to #10. Is there a new one? Jeff Up
