Still dying, but getting maybe a little further each time. This was - following Scatha's advice - pure melee/evasion; I did manage to survive a slightly earlier episode where I was blind, confused, stunned, gorged (because of trying various un-ID'd pack contents trying to remove other effects) and surrounded... but then I figured I had taken orcs before, how hard could it be?

Sigh.

! Good going getting out of that one, at least. I think "dying, but getting further each time" is some of the attraction. It is supposed to be a difficult game.

Were you able to run away from this one after you got injured, or were you trapped? You might also have noticed that the Orc-slaying weapon in your inventory was glowing, and tried switching to that.

What? Huh! Would there have been a status message on that [the glowing]?

I could have tried to run away, yes.

I'm also unsure on the balance between armour and to-hit chances. Seems odd that good weapons impose a to-hit penalty. Maybe I should read the manual at some point :).

Yeah, the combat system is pretty well explained in the manual.

There wouldn't have been a status message, but if you looked at it in your inventory it would be a different colour. (This is admittedly a lot easier if you play with the inventory subwindow open.)
