I am doing alright in nm, with my sorc. It is sometimes tough and I
have to be careful. Even though I am playing sc, I try to keep my
death counter as low as possible...I think so far I have died somewhere
around 12 or 13 times and I am ready to start Charsie's <sp?>quest.
Of course I am not upping the # of players, normally it is just my
daughter and me in a tcp/ip game.
