I have a small (non-critical) bug to report.

I noticed some flaws in the text about what the NPC's upgrade and what they don't.

Somehow "I'm currently upgrading my bow and arrows" becomes replaced by "I'm not upgrading my missile weapons". I tried with Bart and at first it was displayed correctly (with all other upgrades off), but once I turned on all upgrades (Including one-handed blunt and shield  ) it changed. I didn't have enough time to see if he actually stopped upgrading or it just was displayed incorrectly.

Nothing major, but just confusing.

I like to use NPC's for party skills, and I strongly disagree with the -1. You still have to make some tough choices, but it is impossible to put all skills on your main hero, and that means accepting the "lesser" heroes skills, which are probably smaller than they could have been if they were on your main hero.

I can only say, that if NPC's can die in Last Days, then I won't be downloading it. That is an awful idea, unless they somehow spawn? All their eq would be lost too if they die I presume? Since NPC's sometimes act in spectacularly stupid ways, it would be wrong to let them die. I certainly wouldn't allow them any missile weapons... And the only possible order would be "Hold Position" while I solo the enemy.

I play Fisheyes expanded NPC mod and enjoy the variety, but all my NPC's have been knocked out several times, especially in the early levels.

Excellent news.

This mod does what mag7 did for the earlier version - only much better with the combat orders, and multitude of npc's.

My favorite is Thalorn and Olaf. One eminently useful and one eminently stupid at first, but both great once they reach a decent lvl with good equipment. I Usually grab Bart as tracker and pathfinder too, though that means he never gets that great in battle. Too bad about the -1 to the stats, hopefully that get's removed in later versions.

Ok, updated. Magreav, you'll be pleased to find that your suggestion about blunts has been implemented.

WOW that was quick! 

I'm going to dl the latest mod as soon at the price-bug gets fixed then.

This is a great mod - thanks!

I have one suggestion. How about making NPC's update blunt weapons and shields, to get those slaves collected!

Alternatively you could make them buy one on the side, and then issue an order before a battle about equipping them in battle.

You have to have food to heal I think, maybe that's the problem?

This should be stickied, or there should be a forum only for posting the mods. I'd hate to see this great mod relegated to page 2 status

That sounds like a good explanation!

I've seen my charactar couch a staff once, but I dunno if I could have hit somebody with it?? I'm sure it works with lances and spears though, and probably pikes too? Maybe any weapon capable of thrusting? In that case a staff would work too though.

we need clarification (or experimentation).

What weapons can be used to this couched lance -thing? Everything with a lance in it's name or what?

I think any polearm can do it. I did it with a spear last night.

9.2 is the best for me - I'm getting better though

Edit: Today I got an 11.2 !! I couldn't even see the guy when I released the arrow, he was riding around a hill, but I still got him! Felt good.

ahem - it is infact right of the horse and not left. I have two excellent excuses. I wrote the post at work and I'm a lefty...

When using a lance you don't wanna use the attack-button at all.

Below a quick guide:

1. Get a fast horse and a lance (preferably a great lance or a jousting lance)
2. ride quickly towards your hapless victim
3. Notice how you automatically lower your lance (if not you're probably too slow or going uphill, that won't work, circle around and try again)
4. Ride past the victim, keeping him just to the right of the horse and looking right at him with the mouse
5. If you do it right you'll get a red txt with "Couched lance damage" and a nice high number next to it

Practice in the arena or soloing river-pirates. Try starting a new character (I suggest a court lady since she starts with a very fast horse) and practice with her.

Let's hear how it turns out.

Edit: right, right.

I don't care for MP. I voted for story, but after seeing the results I have to agree, that the free form of the game is one of it's main strengths today, and I'd hate to see that go. The combat system is the other strong point making battles more fun than in any other game.

Think Darklands with great combat (and a less annoying copy-protection)...

In my experience most mods involves replacing files in the modsnative directory and maybe the textures directory.

So make a full backup of native, and replace the files there with the mods.
