I had previously not mentioned, I turned up the difficulty on SCS for this run, to “Improved”. Tentatively, I may bump it up to Tactical for a later run, but probably no further. The higher levels often irk me, when enemy spellcasters too often have even short duration defenses up…

I’ve explored the whole southern map now, and cleared the bandit camp. Just getting started on the Cloakwood Forest. Everyone is around 6th level.

This time some action scenes, with a “Keith Parkinson” style cue. Mostly playing around with blurred effects and “cinematic action”. Obviously Anastasia’s version of “action” is healing people, so hers is a little more subdued. I’ve completed through the Frost Giant Cave now. Next step is the first detour off…

About half way through the Severed Hand now. This team is very strong, they tore through Dragon Eye without any reloads. That includes a couple of tough fights for the level. The front rank. Astolpho and Eriksen. Very strong front pair. Astolpho as an Undead Hunter just tears things up.…




As you mentioned a few days ago, SeeDream *knows* D&D creatures! I still add some details (like I described kobolds…
