Good luck my friend. I am lurking and interested - it is a long-held ambition to get rid of all the fudge factors. If there's anything I can do etc.

I was indeed, and that is a bug which may or may not still be present in 4.0 beta. Nomad's quarterstaff is fine - arguably underrated by the algorithm but there's no bug. The absence of brands and...

ISTR Zaimoni went on a spree of archiving git repositories, or something. It sounds like it's a tarball of a large archive - perhaps every variant s/he had acquired by then.

I can't work out whether this will be a jaw-droppingly huge change, or merely another ironman option (like forced descent et al.). I wonder if in fact it will be a jaw-droppingly huge ironman option....
