    Just went to the Bog. It's good. My favorite map is the one with the shacks. :thumbsup:

    I am now "sleeping around" on the maps to see what shows up. ;)

    IMHO, some of the maps could use a little more fog, and maybe some npc's. :sleepingv

    Also, I notice that on most of the maps, you cannot access the world map...Smells like a trap...Excellent! :thumbsup:

    Did you by chance...marry her? (Just so you know, I'm joking. And, yes, it's a sexist joke. My apologies to whomever might be offended.)

    My apologies also for non-bug commentary. I forgot. Got carried away. Sorry.

    :D

    Yeah my bard did. He's got an 18 CHA and a sexy body that she couldn't resist ;) But, one time my bard was slain in battle and all she did was a "Farewell my love." I was like :confused: that's it. The love of your life just got his head squashed by an ogre and that is all you can say. At least Elmo cried "Noooo! not the pwetty lady!" when my female elven cleric died ...and they weren't even married. Hmm ...maybe Meleny loves her pet attack dog more? :questionm Oh wait! eewwwwwww!

    Gaear, feel free to move the bug posts #24 and 25 over here, so I can add my intelligent and cultured comments to the general melee. (Looks like Tom has found a home.)

    Once again, the new Hickory Branch is great! Thank you Krunch and Gaear! :clap::clap::clap:

    I haven't dowloaded the new v5.5 yet, as I'm, still trying to finish up an old game, but I do have a question about the new mod pack.

    Are the quick save issues resolved/addressed/made obsolete with the new FE and/or mod pack or is this an "in-game" problem that has nothing to do with them?

    I've never played a co8 mod before this one. I really did enjoy my first run through. The revenge encounter did catch me off guard. Hickory branch was a blast the minotaur and that orc commander were a pleasent suprise. The one thing I enjoyed above all else was the improved AI. I would suggest that if the temple could be made a bit more difficult that would be great. But, I think it has been suggested before.

    I just wished I made some different choices. Oh well, there is always next time.

    Thanks for all the work you guys put in. It's like playing an almost different game.

    Does she actually loot, or just comment like she is? Cause they all make comments now and again. If they loot, something disappears from the chest and appears in their inventory. ;)

    If it's got a lot of loot in it, the chest drops stuff. Easy to overlook.


    Sincerely hope this isn't another nonbug comment :paranoid:

    You rang? I have noticed this too with reach weapons, but I haven't tested it enough to make any conclusions except that CR does not work perfectly with Reach Weapons. Keep an eye out for if it only happens while flat-footed. Of course, CR should allow Aopps while flatfooted.

    No, she doesn't just comment, she loots. And Shiningted, I'd love to have more NPC interaction, inter-character banter, etc. but a bug is a bug. And it's annoying as hell when I pay 500 gold for RP purposes for a character whose pretty worthless to the party and then she proceeds to loot 2 200p necklaces and a gold ring I'd put aside for potential crafting. If there was a sleight of hand thing going on that might be cool but as is I haven't even killed her yet because I feel bad knowing it's not actually the character.
