Another progress report from the Gnomes without the sense to use Level-ups.

We have cleared the lower half of the 'Hand and have our first quest item. With the difficulty set to 'Easy' the game balance is ok - it reminds me a little of HOF mode in that each battle takes a long time. This is because I have good defensive equipment but poor attacking skills, so both sides roll a lot of misses.

One enemy that gave more trouble than usual were the skeletons that cast Fireball, as you would expect one mistake there and the whole party gets toasted. I also struggle when out-numbered by large groups that include archers and spellcasters - well there are plenty more of those up ahead.

So onwards and upwards we go - be seeing you. MG
