                       THE BARD'S TALE


                   Tips from the dungeon

                           Part 2


                           "... We have created an unbeatable 
team!"

   The text that follows I will try to give you some tips on 
this, certainly not (yet) the best RPG on the Speccy. If you 
are in my deep ignorance, once downloading this game decided 
that it was a real !'#'#($, and that playing it can just 
insane, you are deeply mistaken. According to its playability 
BARD'S TALE is comparable with such monsters as ELITE and UFO. 
If you doubt this, try to play it at least a little time and I 
hope that you will understand what it is masterpiece. Well, now 
prompts. 


   1. Of all the races involved in the game, the most versatile
are half-elves. They effectively create the majority
occupations that exist in the game. And the most useless, I 
thought gnomes (GNOME) and, oddly enough, people. Of the combat 
professions best shown himself a hunter and a monk. Hunter, in 
fact, at higher levels of "critical bearing on the case and 
about every second stroke he is mortal. Monk also affects

enemies to the death of his speed and power. Few enemies can 
outrun him in the speed of the strike. As for the warrior 
paladdina and then, in spite of multiple shocks, they can not 
be compared with the monk. Magicians in the unit must be at 
least two. From Bard, in general, and you can not refuse - the 
good of his songs are not too much, but it can take its place 
another magician. Cracker - a valuable squad member, and is 
best left in the rear ranks. So perfect, in my opinion, the 
detachment: monk, monk, hunter, magicain, conjurer, rogue.



   2. Now the monsters. First, ordinary, that is "trivial." The 
most "underpaid" in terms of getting points for their killings 
are kobolds. For them give only 10 points experience at his 
brother. Well, most "vysokooplachivyemye" monsters - is 
barbarians. For them, paying as much 33 points. Somewhere 
between kobolds and the barbarians have settled all the other 
monsters. This and skeletons, and the nomads, and Hobgoblins, 
and of course the Orcs. As in the game, there are so-called 
"trivial" monsters. These whole day sit in the corners, and 
when night comes, they emerge from dens and attack luckless 
troops "adventurous." This type of monster are all sorts: 
half-orcs wolves, swordsmen, zombies, well, etc. For such 
monsters give an order of magnitude more points, and yes, 
killing them, you can find all sorts of interesting things 
there. Such as mithril swords. And who else, and you are lucky, 
may find, for example, a ring of force or the sword of the 
dragon. There are also so-called "stationary" monsters. These 
are statues that come alive when approaching them detachment. 
Statues There are varied: from samurai to gray dragon.



   On this hint yet ended. Perhaps in the next issues of 
ON-LINE will be continued. Well now, if you have any questions 
win the game, then you can contact Yuri Vasin, leading in that 
category. He took the game to the end and look waiting for your 
calls with questions. His phone can be found in the end of the 
newspaper.
