I don't know what your problem could be, because it's not something I've seen before. RAM problem? Video memory? I have no clue.

After reviewing the pic, I have reached the conclusion that I did not actually land the airship. I crashed into a wall. :)

Have a very nice day.

Crashing is landing. It's landing with style, flair, and a smidgen of destruction.

Perfect ;)

It's not actually landing if it didn't touch the ground :)

Hit them with everything you've got, and use heal every round.

Kinda hard when the riders get first crack at running us through before the healers can do their work. Usually by the second round everyone but Eidemyr (sp?) is killed off but by the third he too goes down.

In my party I have Newbie, Chuck,Connor and Eidemyr(sp?).

If you queue up the heal spell even if everyone's at full health, it will go off after the charge.

Heal 2 by o'Farrell in the beginning of the turn, heal 3 by Schala in the end. N00b attacks the Dragon, Misty uses magic on it. Dragon went down easily.

Have a very nice day.

There is travel between the two towns. And I was trying to keep ASVS intact from the last game, where Nit was the weapons shopkeeper in ASVS.

I don't plan on doing another game, however, I have occasionally considered the possibility that any sequels would be written stories. So I promise, if I write one, I'll make sure to mention that Nit moved to Ehsdeeh'neht. :)
*hugs* You know I'm just teasing, hon. The game is fantastic from what I've seen so far (Nit's playing it) He's got to explain some of the in-jokes to me, but Laird as Kefka is just priceless! (mwhahahahah)

Something that I find works VERY well? Cast Haste on the Healer, especially if it's Scalia since she seems to always be last to act. Hasted, she acts second.

Damn, Laird and co. keep kicking my ass. I believe I need ribbons in order to counter the pissing monkeys. I do believe you could buy them somewhere.

Can anyone refresh my memory?

Darkdrium: Not to my recollection. They have to be found (I found all four).

Regarding your other problem...if you can get Kerkhof, take him along with you to face Laird; his Enhancer tech will help immensely. Otherwise, just level up a bit and keep using dampening spells like Magic Shield.

Do the in game fleets and naval strength of the various towns and cities represent anything in particular from the sites there represent in the real world or are they just extrapolations based on the character of the boards (or just made up).

It’s an amazing game so far, the plot is better than most of the commercial games I have played recently and the dialog is great.
