How do I mod MAngband
I have been thinking of modding MAngband, redoing the monsters, artifacts, and classes, implementing features I like in PWMangband, etc. Is it simple, or are there more complicated things hidden in the MAngband code?

Re: Strategy against bad moves
The Great Ice Wyrm claws you. The Great Ice Wyrm claws you. The Great Ice Wyrm misses you. The Great Ice Wyrm misses you. You hit the Great Ice Wyrm. You hit the Great Ice Wyrm. You miss the Great Ice Wyrm. The Great Ice Wyrm creates a mesmerising illusion. You disbelieve the feeble spell. You miss...

Re: How do I avoid a YASD?
Hey, wait a sec, you said ..."at 2250" -- you mean 1250? And a little comment on your inventory: You need more ccw and more tele scrolls and a few phase doors as well. (I carry between 25 and 45 myself) (45 ccw, 25 or so of the others). Another thing: Why didn't you detect monsters? Especially if t...

Re: Strategy against bad moves
You enter a maze of up staircases. You feel there is something special about this level. You sense the presence of creatures! You see a Light Green Mushroom. You see a Whip (1d3). You see a Battle Axe (2d8). You see a Lead-Filled Mace (3d4). You hit the Acidic cytoplasm. You hit the Acidic cytoplas...

Re: How do I avoid a YASD?
I got YASDed. I established a good pattern for a dive, staying close to the stairs, fighting monsters close to the stairs, detecting for monsters when I could. And yet, I was stupid and went into a pack of tough ones. WTF? THERE IS A TIME HOUND ON 2250 ft? I totally did not expect this. http://mangb...

More Ideas for Pwmangband
Some d20 inspired classes... Commander (better tolkien name for leader?): Very good at fighting, but also has permanent auras, from his inspiring leadership, that give bonuses to *other* player characters in his party, like additional speed, better fighting (accuracy and damage), less chance of spel...

Ideas: turn based MAngband
The big problem I have with MAngband is the real-time. The problem with it is that I do not have enough time to plan out my moves. As a result, although some of the deaths are my fault, many of them feel like cheap ones that I could avoid with more time. My plan is this: turn based mangband. The tow...

Re: How do I beat MAngband [questions]
1. In the current instance (1.1.1), mages are *much* easier than warriors as soon as you get the killer spells (rift, mana storm, mass banishment, word of destruction); except for Morgoth and a few uniques (Tselakus, Maeglin), killing stuff becomes trivial at high level with a mage 2. The beginning...

Re: Strategy against bad moves
Saruman of Many Colours concentrates on his wounds. Saruman of Many Colours looks REALLY healthy! You have 7 Arrows of Frost (1d4) (+9,+9) {@f1}. Sauron, the Sorcerer casts a mana bolt. You have 6 Arrows of Frost (1d4) (+9,+9) {@f1}. The Arrow of Frost (1d4) (+9,+9) {@f1} hits Sauron, the Sorcerer....

How do I beat MAngband [questions]
I read the strategy guides and have some questions:
1. I know warrior is the best class early game but do mages become better?
2. How do I pwn as a mage?
3. If I am diving for treasure, abusing going between levels, what is a good baseline for a mage?
Thanks, might post more questions later.
