Atlantic get together went well

Archived from groups: rec.games.computer.ultima.online (More info?)

It was a fun little romp...it was nice to finally see the Yomotsu Mines, and if
we do this ever again, i think a visit to the Fan Dancer Dojo is in order...the
fan dancers themselves are pushovers, but there's also scores of headless down
there, and more than a few Balrons.

well together. :}*

A little research on those darn Yomotsu warriors revealed that they will
toss a dagger at anyone doing a ranged attack. Based on the damage they
were doing to my tamer/archer/paladin last night, attacking them with a bow
can give a quick ticket to oOoOoOOoooOooo land. That may have been a factor
in the deaths we saw.

That puts a Mage or Archer at a real disadvantage with them. Ali was using
magic. that's why she was taking such a hit.

I can not figure those yomotsu warriors out. During our get together, Ed
was handling them quite well and did not require a lot of vetting. I took
Draco over there a little bit ago just to explore some more and the Dragon
had more trouble with them than the nightmare (took longer to kill one and
required more vetting). Maybe they got an anti-dragon buff or something.
:-(

Ouch, that explains a lot. Antimage monsters. What will they think of
next.

Maybe dragons just use more ranged attacks than nightmares?
