[Announcement]Animeband 059 ("Change! Switch On! One! Two!..

Archived from groups: rec.games.roguelike.angband (More info?)

Yes, it has almost been a year. Come to think of it, I'm not sure that the
people of rgra care since I don't think anyone from rgra actually plays
Animeband (the people seem to come from everywhere BUT here), but I figure I'll
post this here as well anyways.

Unlike the previous Animebands, this one is very stable and surprisingly
balanced. Even I'm surprised at the result; for once, it is actually extremely
fun. I may have to hand the title for "Worst Variant Ever" back to ToME

Grab it here:

And here's the (massive) changelist:

Hope y'all have fun with this one.

As a (new) member of RGRA, as a fan of japanese gaming (but not their
cartoons), I do play Animeband every now and again, albeit scarcely.
Strangest thing is though one reason I like (the Japanese-developed)
Hengband so much is that for me it is strongly reminiscent of the great
"Final Fantasy V", in that it shares a few classes - Red Mage, Blue
Mage, etc., and has a strange familiarity of it. I'll give Animeband a
shot.

This is indeed very nice ! Although those nasty guards inflict far too much
damage...

How about some class/style powers spoilers ?...there are many cryptic names, and
not enough explanation - ability to 'b'rowse all magic types (under "m" and "U"
menus) would be nice.

Cheers.
