YAAD: Medusa's Titan
|
| |
This also qualifies as YASD, I was standing on E engraved up stairs in medusa's island, the titan version, had a decently equipped elven wizard (had MB, blessed BoH, greased +2 SDSM), but no way to directly take out the titan before he could summon a whole group of nasties. Well, about 15 turns later, I thought I had moved off the upstairs for... more »

Nethack 3.4.3 win32 binaries and Win7/x64
|
| |
I've been using the official win32 binaries for quite a while. I just upgraded to Windows 7 x64.. and the binaries will not work. I tried all the XP compatibility modes, but the application closes immediately without ever showing everything and Win7 helpfully categorises the error as 'APPCRASH'. Any ideas/pointers? Thanks!... more »

|
| |
After 20k+ turns my Valkyrie's sacrifice was accepted and I got the Sunsword from my god. (Had already Excalibur from fountain dipping.) Now I wonder where Mjollnir is?

A bug is preventing me from ascending?
|
| |
So over the holiday I took one of my save games that has been parked in Gehennom since forever and wrestled my human lawful Archaeologist up to Astral for my very first ascension. I whistled my tame angel and pet purple worms into position, #offered the amulet, and as I was taking screenshots of the ending stats (Nethack Carbon does not permit... more »

YASD AC 10 ascension - so near and yet so far
|
| |
Hi all, I don't usually post YASDs, as you would get pretty fed up of hearing from me! However, I thought this one might be of some interest, as to my mind at least it proves that an ascension is possible with AC 10 all through the game. This is likely to be a fairly long and spoily post, you have my... more »

The warhorse kicks! The warhorse bites! The... more »
