Please let me know if you need anything. I was going to suggest a Dunadan Ranger starting with Anduril. Human warrior should also be quite good.

I think human warrior is the way to go. We haven't ever done one of those.Glaurung, Father of the Dragons says, 'You cannot avoid the ballyhack.'Comment

Me thinks Compo 172 should be on CthAngband 5.0.0.
My best try at PosChengband 7.0.0's nightmare-mode on Angband.live:

If I'm offline I'm probably in the middle of maintaining Gentoo or something-Linux or other.

I was hoping the timing would work out for this! The comp start will probably be a couple days late (I'm traveling right now, and I suspect that building a new release like this for non-windows will probably have a few snags) -- however, if anyone wants to give a go at creating a savefile, I'd welcome suggestions.Glaurung, Father of the Dragons says, 'You cannot avoid the ballyhack.'Comment

4.0beta next plz
Ranger of some sort might be good, to get good coverage of spells, melee, shooting and bad pseudo-ID
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

Yes, I imagine grid bugs are particularly susceptible to ranged attacks.
Betacomp it is! We have some more weird ones I'd like to try, but it'll be good to play something new and broken instead of old and broken for the next one

That would be great! The "Sauron and artifacts appearing only once unless reset by closing and reopening" bug is the only really major one I can think of that would need to be fixed before a comp. Oh, and the turncount used for the ladder. Those two bugs and a comp should work.
But please, not another "Leon". That was painful!

Yay! There goes my RL productivity for the next month!
Oh well, I only work in payroll. It's not like people really mind being paid late. Do they?Comment

I'm all for fists of flame - not for the extra damage, after all, it's only 1 extra damage per blow, but because it's cool!
Critical hits doesn't make as much sense for me though.Comment

I'm in favor of a little bit of critical hit possibility for a couple reasons. 1) To reflect getting in a liver or kidney shot, gouging out an eye, breaking a bone, etc. and 2) just because the same damage number every time the fist lands just gets boring. Not that it would make must difference in the damage, since the critical from any single blow from a fist wouldn't add up to much. I'm imagining a mechanic like the fist being counted as weighing say 5 lbs (from the momentum) for purposes of calculating a critical hit.“We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school.

Heres an idea: Poschengband Munchkin fastest turns win. Could be intense!Comment
Seriously, though, we should lobby Nick to fix/change fists to have glove bonus damage from acid, flames, etc., branded fists, and possibility of critical hits.
