Guess what? I died.

Shocking! Well, I'm guessing xp will be the decier, so lets see what I can manage...

I swap our wooden ring for the iron ring in the hopes that it helps somehow. Read our scroll - it was light, bleh. I note we have already got "steel wand" identified as light in our identified items list, so no use there!

Rest up to full health, for what it's worth. Open the door on turn 12514. *gulp* There's a lot of trolls out there.... Manage to kill one before he gets to the door and advance to level 11 - I increase Archery, First Aid x2, Concentration x2, Stealth. Um, think those'll help at all? There's a lot more trolls coming for me...

I try to run through but get sandwiched in the tunnel. I throw some more rocks and pray twice for healing, but eventually run out of ammo and get clubbed to death. Feck, only managed to kill one damned troll.

And afterwards I notice a severe oversight of mine in the flg. Damn it, I'm sure you must have won this, _Ln_... I also think the situation is winnable, perhaps too winnable for a challenge.

[_Ln_]

This is very embarassing, but I fucked up so big this time.

I was trying to line them up, so I can get a hit on them with a clearly offensive wand. So I go there, wake up most of them and start to go back. Just imagine - I stepped 1 tile further then it was needed and managed to get 2 trolls on me. Shit. Then I zap the wand - it zaps me instead. Lack of adom-fu prevents me from doing it again - later I tried out and indeed it's *only a chance* a rusty lightning wand will hurt you.
Since there were 2 trolls on me and despite 2 prayers I didn't even manage to missile down a single troll.

You won't get that precious 2-from-end place, noob!

[gut]

i drop petrify book and that silly +0 hat. i dodge around
a stone giant that throws painful rocks. i read scrolls
to find a defense scroll. i must have slipped when reading
a 'remove curse' scroll, so the ring stays cursed. last
unID'd scroll was identify, and it shows ring as -acid.
i descend and pray for ~300 turns. I descend and want to
just run out my turns. i can't because of food problems.
i drink unID'd potion to find it was training. climbing
skill gets pumped

i invoke river rule once more on I18. in invoking the
rule, a crystal statue follows me down again. i have to
flee it so far that i wind up descending again. I end
my turn on I19.

6000- hmm..loooong pondering. Gonna try the unexplored corridor
6003- as i walk away from closed door i spot the baby dragon approaching..manage to avoid
getting trapped and head south. If skeletal warriors walk the other way i'll be in trouble.
6048- easily outrun the baby dragon but a goblin and a bat get in the way..berserk! D gets
close enough to breath a bolt, luckily with no serious consequences
6097- HA! Corridor leads to stairs room! close doors and wait by the stairs
6112- descend as dragon shows up
6116- dishonourably close door and set to wait turn out, munch some food
7000- turn's out!

The first part was crucial, had i chose to take the upper corridor i would have been killed for sure...did you die on this level? Nice game..i never play hurtlings, but it seems to be worth trying

[JellySlayer]

6014 -- feel tension...
6051 -- enter dark room, apprently full of gargouyles... keep killing them...
6191 -- daggers went toi lv4
6251 - found stairs
6362 - got large ration... going back to stairs...
will it down on them with tension stopping mob generation
6938 - fomorian giant shows up
6953 - eat him too|
6999 - descend just to land nearby ghost lord... luckily it does not matter

I descended twice, but had to keep hunting since I didn't find food. Eventually got cornered by a margoyle and killed.

Good game!

Nope, I survived that level just fine, it was the next couple that lead to my death
As soon as I descended I was met with a dwarven chaos knight that I couldn't scratch so I had to run around that level
Found the stairs and descended but that put me next to a gray slayer
It poisoned me and I ran around looking for stairs again but hit too many dead ends, it poisoned me again and again and eventually led to my death. I didn't pay close attention to my health so I didn't even use a prayer...

[Conundrum]

11001 - Identify potions, drink potion of potential strength. Drop stuff to become unburdened.
Identify scrolls, we have repair. Pity we don't have our spear of mayhem anymore.
11059 - Find stairs in the next room.. easy win? Might run out of food.
11063 - God, this is the level of locked doors. Not game to keep kicking them down at such a high DL. Wait on stairs.
11900 - Descend
11933 - Descend again
11972 - Descend again
11980 - Descend again
11982 - Drink a random potion on the floor, potential toughness.
12000 - Save.

What got you, vogon?

[vogonpoet]

Just my usual every day reason why I am terrible at ADOM - a little piece of in game nihilistic stupidity which would rather see my PCs die in style than hang around doing nothing for a while. I try to suppress it, but just can't stop myself sometimes.

Thus, after wandering around sick, killing lots of stuff (more bloody master swordsmen), I descend, and find a spell book of cure serious wounds. Read after about 6 attempts, and now sickness management is easy - I can keep my HP at 50%, no worries. So I am happily exploring the current level, I have 150 turns to go to complete the round, I am still sick, and the unexplored part of the level is at the end of a long corridor, beyond a locked door.

I have 150 turns to burn, I have an iron ration, I have books I could gainfully read, I am at 47/97 HP, I am still sick. So what do I do? I pause briefly, consider my options, and kick the door in for no good reason. The resulting explosion stripped me of most of my armour, and more importantly, about 75 HP.

C'est la mort.

T5051: killed ettin, found stairs.
T5090: praying made me comfortable.
T5830: finished using holy symbol.
T5834: dropped all our items expect the cursed ring and the holy symbol.
T5844: prayed for a bit. Equipment cursed.
T5950: waited a bit.
T5953: equipment turned to dust.
T5954: now we are doomed.
T5955: picked up everything.
T5962: drank all the water we had.
T6000: descended.

So now we have no food, potions, holy symbol, ring of acid resistance, and we are doomed.
I'm sure we'll getting hungry pretty soon. Good luck!
