The Gaming Den

Vote registered; asking the stallholder if he’s hiring at present. 11 ‘You need a permit from the Tradesmen’s Guild to work in the Bazaar,’ the man tells you. ‘You got one of those?’ You shake your head. ‘Didn’t think so.’ You walk away disconsolately. It feels like you need a permit to do anything ...

Since nobody voted, I will have Lee Miles keep heading along the Grand Parade. 54 The Grand Parade leads all the way to the Royal Palace, but before it gets there it opens out into a square packed with stalls which are shutting up for the day. This is Salamonis’s famous Bazaar. Surrounding the squar...

I would also like to confirm that the problems are back, and that I have had to be creative when trying to access my latest Let's Play thread, as clicking on the link that the title connects to (which is http://www. tgdmb.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=58100) gives the error page that was previously ref...

Vote acknowledged; replying ‘Yes, I’m heading to the Adventurers’ Guild.’ 390 ‘I’ll walk with you, then,’ says Nanoc, and the two of you set off together into town, heading in the direction of the Sunrise Gate and leaving the hustle and bustle of the Boondocks behind. As you walk, you ask the Barbar...

Votes registered; reporting the loss of Lee Miles’ backpack to the guards. 337 ‘Sirs,’ you say, ‘during my voyage here I lost my backpack and everything in it. Who should I report this to?’ ‘Anyone you want,’ says the shorter of the two guards. ‘It won’t matter. No one will take any notice. And if t...

Votes registered; exploring the Docks. 45 https://i.imgur.com/PXY118K.png As you soon learn, this area is actually called the Boondocks, since the goods and visitors that arrive here are considered a boon to the city. There are all manner of hawkers peddling goods, and costermongers pushing their ha...

Vote registered; asking him the question ‘What coinage is used in Salamonis?’. 204 ‘The basic unit of currency is the silver Salacoin,’ Ruznik replies, ‘but you won’t get much for a Salacoin these days. Perhaps a loaf of bread or a small flagon of home-brewed ale. Outside of Salamonis, most people w...

After looking at the votes, I am going to name our hero Lee Miles, since that is what the sole name vote was for. I will break the three-way tie by having Lee Miles ask ‘Can you tell me more about the great centres of learning?’ to the man from Salamonis. 138 ‘Well, Salamonis is renowned throughout ...

Since nobody voted, I will have our hero make a dash for the entrance. 169 Taking your life in your hands, you run for the exit. Your pounding footsteps echo from the cave walls and then you hear the surprised shouts and grunts of the Ogre, and then the sound of it coming after you. With the two-hea...

Cover https://i.imgur.com/jSqAwTL.jpeg Greetings, folks. Since the forum errors have somewhat cleared up, and my workload is tolerable although still rather big, the time has now come to declare an end to my short break and host my next Let’s Play. The subject this time will be Book #70, which I vie...

OJ Simpson has thankfully kicked the bucket. For anyone thinks that he’s innocent, listen to the phone call that the LAPD made with him during the Bronco chase. It’s the closest he ever got to just confessing the murder out loud. I hope Fred Goldman is feeling better, knowing that this wife-beating ...

Appreciate all the thanks coming my way. It makes it worthwhile for me to keep running Let's Plays here when I am able to.

If Tideus was not fed, we would have to face him at 9 Skill and 16 Stamina, but he would not give up until he reached 6 Stamina points or fewer, which meant that feeding him resulted in Icarus Morningstar needing to deal 2 less Stamina points of damage overall to win the fight. Tideus still would ha...

Giving Tideus a Potion of Power and having Icarus Morningstar quaff the Greater Healing Potion and a Potion of Might all received 3 votes, so our hero will proceed to do this. 324 You toss Tideus the Potion of Power. He catches it in his mouth and swallows it down. He looks down at his enormous blue...

Votes acknowledged; giving Vizigg Icarus Morningstar’s hovers. 63 They’ve served you well, but now it’s time to put your hovers to greater use.

I can't see the In the Trenches forum. I can see every other forum (as you can see from the fact that I'm posting in this one). I can see the individual threads in In the Trenches if I go straight to a URL for one of them that I already have. But clicking on In the Trenches gets me, "The reque...

Votes counted; going to the kitchens won over trying the Great Hall door by a 2-1 vote. 9 You head towards the kitchen. You listen at the big iron-studded door, and hear a dull moaning coming from inside. Another creature, perhaps? A terrible monster? The walking dead? You shove open the door forcef...
