    1. when creating a character, is the 25 or 19 points to distribute constant? because i simply cannot duplicate some of the pre-generated characters using the given points. is there a way around this?

    2. why does my ranger with melee = 4 fights better than my fighter with melee = 6? the ranger averages about 60% hits, while the fighter probably just 40%.

    3. is there a way to change the turn-based to just pause instead of the timer? 'coz i always end up waiting after a command or simply missed my turn trying to issue a command.

    3. You may set turns timer on longer state in options. This will however be applied to your enemies too!!! What a moronic game... :toofar:

    extremist, let's say i do put it to an acceptable time delay. would i be able to terminate the timer once i issued the command?

    i think the game is ok, not that good and not that bad. however, the user interface is as you say "moronic".

    I don't remember which key, but try Enter or Space to end the turn of an NPC. But yes, there is a key for that!
