Did you have to search for it, or did it drop?

I think it was in a chest, but it could have been a drop as well. I didn't search for it though.

[Ehndras]

Sweet!

Found a city a few squares away across the mountains. I'm out of turns, but I was able to buy basic armor for all of my characters at 22 gold a piece and a suit of 8 defense armor for one of my warriors. Also bought a square shield with 2 defense, only cost maybe 35 gold too.

Gonna check this out and see if it's my cup of tea.

[shadenight123]

does "search" actually work? and when should it be used?
ps: how long does "marks" on wall last?

[Raddish]

The search thing in the sewers found me a couple of secret doors that led nowhere interesting, it doesn't seem to be much more than a waste of a turn to me.

[Ehndras]

In the sewers its usually pointless. Only use it once every 5-6 tiles to find hidden doors, the chest with awesome weapons/armor could be hidden. It wont really be useful til you hit a REAL dungeon, not a rat-infested sewer.

P.S, once you're level 2-3, go exploring out of town. As long as you're smart and use scout to figure out what you're in for, you'll survive. Dark elves, skeletons and goblins are easy to kill at our level. Gorgon, basilisks, etc, will rape you. Keep this in mind and you'll do fine. Try to find another city nearby, they'll have different shops, wares, and a different sewer for you to loot.

"Hamsters were spotted in combat with a group of 2 Ghouls, 2 Trolls and 2 Zombies at 11, 65. Witnesses say Hamsters crushed their opponents."

I'm currently testing the game. The above sentence sold me the game.

Watch out for Giant Wolves, they're tougher than you'd initially think. I had more problems with wolves than with minotaurs and trolls

I have been playing for a couple days as Intrepid Lil Group. Seems like a cool game starting out (has the feel of an undeveloped world of newbie adventurers) and hopefully it has staying power.

Anyone know if those small turquoise squares on some of the sewer tiles are anything but decoration? With all the talk of chests, I thought maybe those were chests somehow, but I have wasted enough turns searching and have given up thinking there are any chests in the sewer of this backwoods town I started in. Suprisingly, the town did have a poor blacksmith show up overnight, so now he can repair my gear. I'm planning to make a long excursion to the dungeon at 48,25 if it's still there after the day change, since I'm at 21,25 now.

In terms of our growing monster compendium: When I face a group of Bugbears it says I have a good chance to win, however, they hit quite hard (4 dmg) and slow down my party's progress even if I win.

[Ehndras]

You need to get armor. Bugbears would rape my HP until I spent about 300 gp on armor at a nearby town away from my starter town, I've been kicking ass ever since. Been upgrading my guys to metal shields (3 def, 88 gp) and def-5 armors that are sold at the town next to my original spawn town.

Apparently, we spawn in these shitty little towns but if you travel to other towns they sometimes have much better gear.

I travelled one town over to go from prosperity of 33 to a prosperity of 85, which makes a huge difference both in available equipment and healer bills.

Warning: Currently there's a band of 9 werebears at (53,20), just off the road of Valiantsand.

Chests are brown and some places don't have them or don't have a lot of them. The dungeon at 48,25 is still there as far as I can see and it has plenty of chests, but is also somewhat tougher than sewer bashing. If you're kitted out decently you should be able to handle it. Although my squishy little mage has died there once or twice, everyone else is doing just fine

[forsaken1111]

I found a chest in the sewer and it had a set of full plate and splint plate armor. Is this good? I was previously without any armor.

Yes, armour is better than no armour 

Of course, armour also encumbers you which affects your movement factor, but get your guys armoured ASAP

[forsaken1111]

So how does the weight factor work? Does high strength offset it?

I have a party of 2 warriors, 1 archer, 1 priest and 1 mage. All dwarves, of course.
