This isn't ASCII, but something compiled for linux - not yet version 1.5.x, because apparently that's the upgrade. I have no access to any of the funky classes, just the mundane ones - and they alll...

Tips?

Many deaths. It seems like TOME is vastly more complicated than Angband, and mucho deadlier - or is that...

Le thought, le mage
Working a half-orc mage through the system. Haven't played a lot of mages, but here's my two cents/drachma/peso/copper pieces.

How did you die today?
I haven't seen a thread on failures, much. You know, those spectacular - or mundane - ways of dying.
So what the heck. I'll start.
Elf mage. CL12. Just battled a fighting retreat from a nasty...
