It's a little more boring to do it that way since not as much goes on at first but it gives you time to figure stuff out and you won't have to stare at the game for a few minutes stuck on 867 trying to figure out the intricacies of a big kingdom or something.

The no-hit cheevs are the hardest imo, take an emperor card and hope you get a double level and easy bosses.

Duke of Apuila in 1066 is good for newb. You can also try playing in a big family like the Jimena's or Rurikids and consolidating your dynasty's stuff, to get familiar with expanding through inheritance and stabbing.

Nope gotta do both bosses. It sucks, everything else you'll get a good run eventually but the no-hits you need to have a good run and be really lucky or just be hella good at dodging but the expansion makes that poo poo crazy hard

it was much easier pre-expansion and when there were a variety of ways to glitch invuln

Dungeon Crawl Progress report: lost a game at 2 (almost 3) runes, 2 games at 2 runes. Current run looks promising with having spider and swamp runes and accumulating a bunch of escape stuff I have sworn to remember to use more often. But, I am having terrible book luck and am having to spread skills out thinner than I'd like.

Next ambition: king of ireland.

Update on Ninja Gaiden 2: I think I'm about halfway through. I just destroyed a flying aircraft carrier called Daedalus, which reminded me of when I destroyed a flying aircraft carrier in Saints Row 3 which was also called Daedalus.

Why the hell is every flying aircraft carrier called Daedalus?

what kinda character are you playing? books shouldnt be much of an issue for blasters unless you've decided against vehumet/sif, especially at that stage of the game (veh would have given you the endgame conjurations by this point)

Played this over and over again because of Raptors and the GRAD.



I keep missing fights from stealth killing. Gotta break that habit. I don't think it's possible to do the fight when you're staggering around at base health. Also the game won't let you die and keep you at 0.1% when you're in the front of World Marshall fighting off the soldiers before Monsoon's fight.

I forget what I was for that run by now, but I'm pretty sure I was doing Sif at that point. I'm playing summoners at the moment. That run was a weird run for drops though.

I almost had a V5 rune last run, so maybe this time I will go all the way. This is my first time doing snake though. I don't think I like it. Those sharpshooters hurt.

I was at the tail end of the last level and started getting impatient with the last stealth bit.

I had to cheese one of the fights by exploiting enemy pathfinding. That elevator ride with the hammer fatty and three sliders was just too much since it dropped two mastiffs once you thin the herd.
