Well, I was travelling Arnika Road, aka the land of cheesy enemies, and I was up high off the road to scout ahead and I saw a group of rogues heading my way, so I dodged into a nook in the cliff to camp so they'd just pass me by. They didn't. I camped again. Still there. Ended up being FOUR groups of them, which I could definately not avoid. At this point I was thinking about how someone told me that Arnika Road was unbalanced...those Brigands get 3 attacks after using all their movement...they're very mean. So, and I thought this was hilarious, I lured them all up to the cliff and killed them one by one, and won the fight. There's a screenshot of near the beginning of the battle here. I just thought I'd share this with people, I found it amazing. I got round 16k XP for this, along with lots of items, and like 5 pages of skill increases. Wow. If I would have fought them normally, I would have died very quickly!

I loved being able to use the terrain to my advantage in this game. It certainly makes things more managable.

Hehehe
Works on two levels...actually three. One being the cartoon character. Two being the Greek(I believe?) Philosopher, which is also where the character "Hobbes" in Wing Commander (my favorite character in that series) got his callsign from...and one of the voices in Wizardry sounds EXACTLY like Hobbes in Wing Commander, so I thought it was pretty cool.
