Started a new modded game
I FINALLY got the sound and stuff problems in BG2 solved, at least under win98, so i'm up for playing again, not to mention MP-games.
Started new game too, installed a few mods, all weidu, so i'm sure they won't screw eachother up.
Namely:
-Ease of use, installed just about the same things we use in the MP-game, so no multiclass grandmastery, nerfed tables etc., just some basic stuff and female edwina.
-Tactics: installed everything except for the "always hardest monsters when resting in dungeon". Cos it's plain unlikely that i will ALWAYS encounter those in real life, and cos it'd be apin in the ass. Other than that did it all; improved Illyich, Kurosian, random city encounters, Red Badge, improved twisted rune, Gaxx, dragons, beholders, mind flayers, mages, vampires, undead, lichs, and whatnot. That'll be fun.
-Valen mod: Well i was looking forward to this, but i just read on the interplay boards that she is extremely overpowered. Stuff about her draining 50(!) lvs in one turn.
So i think i'll pass on her. Too bad cos i was looking forward to her "running of berserk killing ppl at random" thing.
-Sola mod: already did this one, but gonna do it again prolly cos of the fun fights in it.
-Ascension: How can i NOT have the improved Abazigal fight in there?
I made a party;
-Me: Chaotic evil dwarven barbarian, surprise.
-X: A gnomish, chaotic evil fighter/illusionist mutli-class. I have great plans for this fella, i bet he'll prove a VERY good partymember. Already showed when battling improved Illyich.
-X2: Human chaotic evil anti-paladin. It's a new kit under "fighters" in the tactics mod in case you wonder. Mebbe i'll dual it to a thief or cleric or mage. (can't recall correct stats so dunno what is possible)
I just fought my way tru Jonny's dungeon doing imrpoved Illyich. Man its easy with a full party. Even Illyich himself goes down in a minute when being gangbashed. In fact the wizard slayer was the hardest of the lot. And that cleric casting unholy word on my evil bastard-party, haha!
Oh, btw, i had Imoen, Jaheira, Minsc AND Yoshimo join. Unfortunately, they all got killed in Jon's dungeon.
If you needed any proof this is the real me posting you got it right there. In fact, Immy, Jah, and Minsc didn't even outlast the bottom floor. No bother cos couldn't care less for them. Was a bit disappointed atlosing Yoshimo tho, could have needed a thief. Blah.
Questions then:
1) Anyone know any more mods that are very likely to be compatble AND don't need a new game to be started to work? (after all i'm still at the very beginning of my game)
2) Any ideas as to a cool thievish element in there? Multi-class is ok, dual-ideas too.
P.S. i'm gonna have Edwin hike along when i meet him. He's just too good and funny not to have along, especially with the "Edwina" adjustment.
