Hey Barb! Glad to see you decided to play. How many times does this make? It is my first and M&M7 is my favorite. I am past the first large section and am at the second switch. The eyes are not so annoying except that there are so many. I visit the Kriegspire fountain to make up for their taking away my protective spells. So far, I like Darkmoor more than Alamos. It is not so confusing.

Let us know how you are doing. Where are you now?

Hi Pokey,I'm just now doing the Dragoon Keep to get Mordred. I can use that money to get Lloyd's Beacon, Fly, and Master in water magic. This is only the 3rd time I've played M&M6. I think I played 7 about 20 times.

Finished Darkmoor. It wasn't that bad, just a lot of Eyes and Liches to kill, so it gets a bit tedious at times. It wasn't hard to find my way around. I'm at Castle Kriegspire now. I'm afraid these Minataurs are going to be harder to bring down. My gang went up three levels after Darkmoor.

Hi pokey, Yea! You're finished with Darkmoor. Glad you didn't think Darkmoor was too bad. I sure didn't like it when all those eyes kept taking my protection and anything to do with magic away. Also, it was more confusing to me.

I bet you would do good in the Cave of the Dragon Riders in Kriegspire. There aren't any quest for it but the dragons drop good stuff when you kill them and it's more experience.

Hi Barb, So glad you could join us! Let me know when you are ready to do Might and Magic 7!!! I'm ready to do it again.

I'm ready any time! After playing M&M6. I realize how much better they made the game for M&M7. I have a long way to go in 6!

I have all the crystals now. Kriegspire wasn't as bad as I thought it might be, though the Minataur Kings are tough. I did find another blue leather armor in a chest. It has +16 armor, so I swapped for my +23 intelligence. I'm off to Dragonsand now.

Good luck in Dragonsand pokey! I'm glad that Kriegspire wasn't too bad. Now, you are going for the Control Cube in the Tomb of Varn. At least the place isn't dark. I kinda liked it, but I had played it once before.

Well Barb, I rested up, so loaded Might & Magic 7 on the computer and I'm on Emerald Island, getting the things together and I found out I don't have enough strength to kill a rat. Boy, I sure need to get a lot stronger.

Looks like I will be a long time in Varn. The big room past the first pools must have at least 50 enemies and each takes a while to kill and I'm making many trips to the healing temple. It gets to be rather tedious. I hope there aren't many more rooms like this.

Hi pokey, I ran on through the room, stood in the pool for a second, then around the corner where they could not see me. They only came two or three (up close) at a time around the corner. There is on down from the corner a couple of rooms with a pool in the middle of them that is full of Genies, but if you go down each room just enough to open up two or three genies at a time you can do it.

I ran through the big room and left most of them behind. I am heading for the rooms around the pools and the Genies. Thanks for saving me from some boring fighting.

pokey, I hate to tell you this, but you have to go in the big room again after you find all the codes. You have to visit all the little pools around the big room to give them the codes and the main one you do last. You have to jump in the round hole that's on the side of the 5 little pools for the last one. Sorry!

Pokey :wave:

Hey, Looney I'm making progress....slowly.

Kay, I kinda figured that was the case. I pulled some out with me and got rid of them, so fewer to kill. I could run through again and pull them into cleared halls where there wouldn't be a crowd shooting at me. I don't recall later M&M games having mobs like this. I cleared out the Genies and moving on.

Done with Varn finally. I had a hard time finding the Water Temple key. Strangely, when I opened the back door, there were no enemies inside the huge area. Not a one! Lucky me. I made the mistake of using nearly all my skill points during Varn and found that I don't have enough for Blasters, so I went to Paradise Valley and killed some Titans. They go down pretty quickly with melee.

Progress is progress and I'm always slow too. You are just getting a lot out of the game

Christmas break is over and time get back to the game. We just entered the Control Center and found a blaster. Going to need a few more as the robot patrols are tough to kill. We do at least have expert blaster skill including one at master. Heading south to see what we can find...hoping for more blasters.

later....found 1 rifle and two blasters. Time to get masters in blasters for all.

Go get 'em

Hi pokey,
You should find plenty of blasters and rifles if you can get by the robots. I did a lot of running away when the large brown robot was near because you were eradicated if his spell worked. I think I found 8 blasters and 3 rifles all together. You have done great and not being able to fly too.

I'm doing Might and Magic 7 now and your right about them all ganging up on you in 6. I've haven't come across as many at one time in 7. I don't think I can do the light and dark both in 7 because of the way it's done. Your either good or evil.
thanks
Kay

I have 3 rifles and 6 blasters and hope to find 1 more rifle. Then I will probably leave since I see no purpose for us to be here except to get blasters. Strange that at times the blasters have no effect on the robots. If you move to a slightly different location, it does work.

Blocked by terrain, Pokey?

No. Standing in a hallway with a clear view of robot, I fire repeatedly, but no damage. This one I just left, but others in a room I couldn't damage until I moved a few feet, although I had a clear view. It didn't happen often but it was strange.

Later....found the 4th rifle and will head to the Hive.

Arrived at the Hive to find a horde of Devils waiting in a a large room. Disposed of them and followed four tunnels to the end. Not so many Devils in our way. Nice to find a keg that gives unlimited health. I'll return often. Now only a hole in the middle of the first large room. Guess I jump down and see what awaits. I think I am nearing the end of the game. Might be fun to destroy the land after I save it.

Hi pokey, You did better than me. I only found three riffles. I thought I had looked everywhere. You are near the end of the game now. I killed the Demon Queen which was at the end of the hive. but didn't get all the devils in the room where she was at. I went through the wavey wall and didn't find any way back to get what was left of the devils!

It was a good game anyway!
Thanks
Kay

Go Get Em, Pokey
