There is a missing | separator between IM_FIRE and IM_ACID.

Monster spell and Projections
Just a quick question to help me understand the game data files? What *is* a projection, in the sense of what kind of thing is that file trying to describe?
How should I think of the...

Possible bug
Hey there,
I've been looking at the gamedata files, and if I understand it correctly (doubtful!), there maybe a mistake in object_propety.txt

Charm / Friendly Summon
I'm curious why Angband (vanilla) has no spell which will charm a monster to fight for the player, or a spell that summons such a monster.
Is it because it would require (relatively) significant...

My first serious warrior experience
I haven't played Angband for the last few years (kids). I thought I'd learn v4 with a simple approach, and try a warrior. And, as (IIRC) Derakon is often touting Half-Trolls as the best choice, I...

Bonuses at level 20, 40 etc
Am I right that Rangers get an extra shot per round at level 20, and again at 40?
Are there any other bonuses like this in the game, for other classes?

It's also mean to taunt people with the availability of dead horses and not any means to flog them. Perhaps the local BDSM store will have some flogging devices? I guess that's a Whip (+0, +0) on...
