    Will we see the return of the Tyranthraxus as the main nemesis of the POR:
    All I can say is that what we have is much worse than the Big T. Bwa ha ha ha ha ha!!!

    From Jon Kromrey Producer, SSI/Mattel Interactive

    Will you have a Demo version of the game at GENCON:
    In preparation for GenCon we are fine tuning what aspects of the game we will be showing off. We'll keep you posted as we get more details on the matter regarding a demo.

    From Chuck Yager Associate Producer

    I'll be at Gen Con showing off portions of the game. The demo is something Stormfront is still working on.

    Here are the answers as best we have them now.
    1) How will CD swapping be handled? For those limited on space, will the CD's be layed out so that CD swapping is at an extreme minimum:
    CD swapping will definitely be at a minimum in PoR:RoMD. How much swapping will be found out in later testing of the game.

    2) Will the game be made fully installable so only one CD is required to be in the drive at all times:
    Yes, the game will be fully installable.

    3) Would you happen to know the full install size of the game if there is that option:
    We are estimating about a gig, maybe less.

    From Chuck Yager Associate Producer


    So what about the Detect Trap spell and Dispel Magic? Can these not be used on traps:
    That earlier statement did not take into account the Find Traps spell that clerics can cast. Yes, that spell will help you find traps like a rogue would in 3rd Edition. What was meant was only a rogue can use the Search skill to find traps through non-magical means.

    From Chuck Yager Associate Producer

    Will we be able to rest in a room that we have barred ourselves into? Or will we be able to rest with them standing right outside that door or will we get a message such as, "You may not rest while monsters are around":
    Yes, it most likely would be an instance where the rest indicator would go from red to yellow because of the precautions you had taken.
