    Hmm, I'm getting quite boring of fending off the same old monsters time and time again, why not add a few?

    Seeing as I don't know how to mod/script/whatever it is you guys do, I'm asking you to help me and my fellow players with some monster mods.

    The first monster I'm thinking of is, anybody's guess, why they left it out. A zombie.

    I don't think it would be that hard to actually make the zombie monsters, from what I hear the hardest part is finding avaters, though I may be wrong. You could use the Uncle Lester avater for all zombies and maybe just change the colors of him, and add poison, holding, or maybe confusion to his/her/its attacks. Also, make the encounters with zombies have a good amount of bags of flesh, they could have few hitpoints, but a lot of them could be trouble for the unwary traveller. Done... NEXT


    Anyways, feel free to post some sort of monster/animal/human enemy encounters that you could think of, that way if someone who can mod comes by they can take a look at some of the ideas.

    Zombies...well, there are plenty of zombies in the game IIRC, have you visited the ghoul town under the Temple Area's sewer system?

    Anyway, you want to toughen up undead? Get tactics mod then, its improved undead component really makes them scary. ALL undead, from lesser shadows to scary skeleton warriors, gain new innate abilities, suited to their cold and dealdy and scary nature, such as:doom, blindness, horror, hold person, spook, greater malison, and even high level undead will gain Wail of the Banshee. Vampires and liches do not gain new powers though (they do not need it anyway). This component is cool, it makes the easiest battle with a pack of lesser shadows a lot more fun and tactical challenge:undead are really scary now! Get it! :thumb:

    I also have had the idea of, say, a hundred or more very weak, almost no XP-giving, slow zombies. Just because it would be cool to lay real waste to an army of weak, slow undead minions :D
    Perhaps you could put a super-strong vampire as optional battle to the end, if someone wanted challenge from it...
