My second character; another human fighter.

Since I'm new to this game (and in love with it), I decided to experiment a bit with the birth options. I'm fascinated by the way seemingly simple options can completely change the decision-making space of the game.

Over the years playing dungeon crawling games, I've always kinda resented the prominence of shopping and managing mountains of almost-worthless junk that I still can't throw away because I just might need them some day (although of course that day usually never comes). So I decided to try Angband's ironman mode.

I love Brogue for the way it forces you to use what you find. That way you can't really fall into a rut of using the same strategy every time. The Angband ironman settings seem like a way to bring a version of that kind of forced flexibility into this game. For the same reason, i turned off the starting equipment option.

I started with 591 gold and I guess this is the only chance I'll ever have to spend it. I bought a very basic fighter's kit with a small supply of food, torches, oil, a shovel, 2 potions of cure light wounds, and a small stack of phase door scrolls. No decent weapons were available in town so I bought a mace from the temple, as it was the cheapest weapon available.

Hopefully that will be enough to allow me to survive until I find some better kit.

Ironman is a very different game from the default. It often places you in do-or-die situations, and to increase the chances of overcoming those, it is mandatory that you get the most out of the easy levels - that is, spend a long time farming.

Whether one or the other gametype is better is a matter of taste, but regardless of which one you are going to enjoy more eventually, I strongly recommend playing the default at first. The reason is that you learn the game much faster that way, as you dont spend that much time on the same beginner problems and get to see the later stages with different challenges (and new ways to die) sooner.

I prefer Ironman settings. Agreed it is hard for non- veterans. But if your goal is to enjoy the game and you don't get too attached to a single run, it is viable. You will struggle even to get to dl 30 of 100. Resources like food and light becomes more important and you will naturally explore more of each level. To win ironman style is however a really big challenge until you really know the game well.

I'm really enjoying these ironman settings so far. It definitely changes the game radically. Every item I find seems to have far more significance, especially food and light items, which were almost meaningless when I had access to the stores. I've been making my way down and upgrading my kit as I can.
