The IWD2 Belle Sakura Saloon Themed Party

Not bad. I don't know if I should enlist the mercenary band or dispatch them.

The Iron Collar? They'd be useful as cannon fodder... And if they die then free loot!

They also steal kills so it means less for the party but then getting them to go to the wall adds some XP reward... If I decide to let them come to the wall I'd be sure and try to let them die for the loot.

Hmm... well, how much XP would we rack slaughtering those idiots?

I think we may lose a bit but at least they wouldn't get in the way during the fight at the wall. Plus we would get all their stuff without hoping for the goblins to take them down. It's a hard choice...

I'm also considering getting rid of all the cats and the old seer. It sounds a bit evil for Care and I don't know if Z could be bothered with cleaning up that house.

Get rid of them. Once you get the reward for 'saving' her, she is of no use

Yes... And please let Z massacre her!

I've reinstalled IWD2 with mods and the widescreen UI make it playable at modern resolutions (I intend to go for 1600x900 as 1920x1080 makes the text really too tiny).

Of course I would have to start over from scratch as I've lost the saves I had and the screenshots I had taken.

I'm not going to play with Tactics4IWD2 as it's just too hardcore and I don't intend to powergame through the game. I will probably go for roleplay choices which means that I won't have to obsess over not having the best builds ever.

Going over the thread I think I can stick to the plan I had so I would start with Nakia, Cara and Zarak in Targos then add Tri either just before the battle or right after the battle and then Sil/Trip would join at some point either once the villagers have been liberated from Torak or after going through the caves or the fortress. The sixth member could join either at one of these stages or as late as the wandering village.

I don't know if Sue could be the sixth member of the party. Another good aligned character would certainly balance things out a bit.

I've just re-done the test and posted the result on the D&D Character thread. I'm not of a 'good' alignment, as before I've come out as a 'True Neutral'.

The result surprised me as I thought the past few years of what life has dealt out might have me slipping over to the dark side

Anyhow, you've a starting level update if a True Neutral Sorcerer is of any use

Cool, more arcane power always comes in handy!
