GENERAL TIPS
------------

Equip your crew with bows, as well as their main weapon. Click on the
bow icon on the main screen when enemies are in sight (but not close
enough to attack). This unleashes a volley of arrows from your party,
and will wipe out lesser monsters before they get close enough to be
a problem. It will also take the edge off some of the nastier critters.

Don't sleep unless you absolutely have to (i.e. "Your Party need rest").
Your team will age rapidly otherwise, and their effectiveness will go
down. Casting a lot of "Cure"-type spells is a necessary evil.

To swap items: Fire up the weapons/armor list for the party member you
wish to transfer the item out of. Click on that item to select it, it
will change color. Then click on the picture of the party member that
you wish to transfer the item to.

The "Wizard Eye" spell is really handy. It shows secret areas that
are otherwise impossible to find. Especially useful in dungeons.

Enchant Item spell: This spell turns generic weapons/armor into better
stuff. I.E. casting on a "sabre" could turn it into an "amber sabre"
or a "poisonous sabre". This only works on items that do not already
have any special qualities.

You will need to use the "Levitate" spell to walk upon clouds without
falling through. This is needed for the areas at the top of the
various towers.  The Levitate spell also lets you float over hidden pits
in the dungeons.  It won't save you from hidden elemental traps (ie. fire,
gas, etc).  You can use the jump spell to avoid those traps.


NOTES: You will need to have at least 1 character with 100+ Might
       before entering the Northern Sphinx
       You will need to have at least 1 charater with 100+ Intelligence
       before entering the Dragon Lair
       Trick to Dragon Lair: walk backwards, slowly. Use "Teleport"
                             spell to avoid Dragon Tax.

        show secret areas)
        The '=' will display YOUR map in an overhead display in the top
        right hand corner of the screen.  Your map will only show the
        areas where you have 'physically' walked through.  The Wizard Eye
        spell will show ALL areas (only a small radius near your party) on
        the map.

NEWCASTLE: You will need to buy this for 50,000
           Three sets of improvments will have to be made
           Each improvement will cost 5 King's Megacredits
           Megacredits are found in the Temple of Yak, Tomb of 1000
              Terrors, and Golem Dungeon
           Each improvement is made by the Master Builder in Castle Burlock
           The final improvement will require an Excavation Permit from
              the Royal Advisor in Castle Burlock (you will need to free
              Crodo from Darzog's Tower first)
           The first improvement fixes the main floor of the castle
           The second improvement adds a second floor, after which the
              locals immediately set up shop (Blacksmith, Trainer, Bank,
              and Temple)
           The third improvement finishes the dungeon, in which you will
              find the weapon you need to finish off Xeen, as well as
              a few "Potions of the Gods". NOTE: make sure that your
              troops are not max'ed out on Miscellaneous items. If
              there isn't enough room in your inventory, you will
              be throwing away your possible 4 Potions of the Gods.

Golem Dungeon: 1) Wood Golems area - Flip all of the switches and use
                  a "Teleport" spell to get out
               2) Stone Golems area - push the buttons until 6 out of
                  the 8 blocks are destroyed
               3) Iron golems - flip the switches to create path to
                  diamond golem area. "Teleport" works well here if
                  you have trouble with the switches.

Northern Sphinx: There are the following spells available here:
                 Teleport, Item to Gold, Divine Intervention, Starburst
                 There are also several thrones to sit in. If the
                 correct Party members sit in them (Dwarf, Orc, Elf,
                 Gnome, Human) you will get experience. Also, there
                 is a special throne for Thieves (more experience).
                 NOTE: One of your Party members will have to have
                 a Might >= 100 to open the Sarcophagii.

WARZONE: Go here to gain experience. You can take on assorted monsters and
         rapidly increase the experience levels of your party members. Be
         sure that you don't get any of them killed, as this causes permanent
         damage to their maximum-obtainable stats. It seems that each time
         one of your characters gets killed, all of their stats are reduced
         by 1. 

Drums in clouds above Tower of High Magic - Rumor has it that by
         beating on these drums, you can cause all of the Gems in
         the area to be replenished. This provides a method of
         getting more Gems (lots needed to complete the game), if
         you have already used up all the Gems otherwise available.
         I have NOT verified this!   So don't take my word for it.


King's Megacredits:  8 - Temple of Yak
                     8 - Tomb of 1000 Terrors
                    14 - Golem Dungeon

Shangri-La is at the bottom level of the Volcano Cave.

ARMOR / WEAPONS NIGHTMARE
-------------------------

Here begins the Mitch Aigner version of the incredibly complex
weapons/armor system. It is followed by the Phil Rice version.
--------------------------------------------------------------

In each version, you start with the "base" class for a weapon or
armor, and then modify appropriately depending upon the Material
or Magic modifier. There are literally THOUSANDS of possible
combinations, making a comprehensive list unworkable. As a result,
you will find a few blanks we were unable to fill in. Please send
me any info that you may have that might shed some light on this
otherwise cloudy and confusing picture.
      Phil and I each came up with a different way of organizing this
nightmare of statistics. Pick whichever one works for you. Both
systems contain pretty much the same info, just organized differently.
Since Phil's lists were a compliation of several people's data, they
were more complete than mine,... so I admit to stealing some of it to
fill in the blanks in my system (sorry about that Phil).
      One last note: There are some unresolved discrepancies between
the two lists. It seems that some of the Material/Magic modifiers
don't always have the same values from game to game, item to item. We
have yet to figure out why this is. So consider all values to be
approximate.
      One last final note: No responsibility is assumed for any
stress, insanity, or psychopathic behaviour caused by trying to
understand this screwy weapons/armor system. All blame resides
firmly with New World Computing.

Material modifiers
------------------
The material of which the base weapons/armor/etc is made changes all of
the statistics of the object, as well as the price.
For Weapons: The bonus is added to the minimum PD, maximum PD, and to
             Hit Modifier
For Armor  : The bonus is added to the base Armor Class

So start with the stats for the base class, and modify appropriately

Weapons/armor/etc can also have magical properties, which are also
added to the base class. Armor provides additional resistance from
the Element selected. Weapons do additional damage to monsters.

THE FOLLOWING WERE COMPILED BY PHIL RICE:
----------------------------------------

    The following is the Weapons/Armor/etc. lists as compiled by Phil
Rice. Phil did it a little differently. I particularly like the method
he came up with to classify Armor/Weapons by material.

Take it away, Phil.............


     First of all, I would personally like to thank the following people for
sending me their lists, corrections and input:

                      James Zarbock
                      James Reed
                      Keith Bilafer
                      Mitch Aigner


    I found that there is a lot of info, but it needs to be organized in a 
format that is easy to extract the info that you need.  That is the part
I have been working on a lot (not to mention all of the cross checking).

    With the weapons, I tried to come up with a ranking system that would
be accurate.  Example:
                      SPEAR        1-9     
                      CUTLASS      2-8

              The spear does 1 pt of damage more than the cutlass, but the
              cutlass does a minimum of 1 pt of damage more than the spear.
              So, what is fair?
             
              What I did is just add the minimum and maximum damage together
              to get a 'average' (I just didn't divide by 2 -- no real point).
                                                Rank
                      SPEAR        1-9     1+9 = 10
                      CUTLASS      2-8     2+8 = 10

              According to my rank, they would be equal (IMHO).

     So now you have these two good lists.  Now when I am playing the game, I 
have five or six different type of weapons to choose from.  I check the list,
but I found that it takes a while to add all of the value, write them down, 
and then compare them.  So I came up with a cross reference chart.

     Now there are couple of different ways I could have come up with a 
numbering system, but I took the easy way out and did it by order.

Well, I am probably rattling on a little too much.  Here are the lists.  
I hope you find the information useful.  

NOTE: Please note that the ranking order between the weapon and armor
      materials are different.  That is why they are on two lists.

Here is the Element, Attribute, and Magic List (and a little explaination).

     When I put together the magic list, I did it after I finished the game.  
I had a few questions about whether certain spells affected one, a group, or
all monsters.  Since I finished the game and almost all of the monsters are
dead, I couldn't verify some of the spell stats (and I wasn't going to start
over :-)  

     Some of the spells seemed pretty straight-foward (ie. Cure Poison), so I 
did not include an effect description for those.  I also separated the
combat spells from the rest of the spells.  I did this because I did not want
to wade through the entire spell list while in an intense combat situation.
Now you can glance down, pick a spell, and still keep the momentum of the
fighting.

     There are a few holes and questions.  If anybody can fill in the blanks/

questions, please e-mail me.  Thanks again to everybody that helped out and 
expressed interest in the list.
