Dragons...it seemed like a good idea...
1. I thought letting a GWoP summon a few times would be a good way to level and gain some treasure, even though I'm in Angband. After all, Super Mormegil makes me nearly invincible. Right? 2. I started the battle with 2900 hp, and was delighted when he summoned a Sky Drake and a GWoP along with a few others. 3. Three of those dragons are GWoPs and things have not gone as well as I had hoped... Somewhere between 2. and 3. I realized that screwing around with level 125 GWoPs is really, really stupid no matter how many hp you have. But at least I have some idea of the limits of 2900 hp now. 8)

Oh come on, you have drain life on that! It'll take, what? 1 round of attacks to get you back up to full health? ;-)

If you really want to be masochistic about it, you have to let Archliches, Nightwalkers, and Greater Balrogs summon. ^^

Here's the thing with drain life and why it doesn't help here: these dragons are mostly lvl90-110, so I can't kill one in less than one round. That means I can't spread blows, and you only get back 100 hp per flurry against a monster. So basically I only get back 100 hp each round.

On the previous level, which was one of those tiny one-room deals, I did let Barbazu and Balrogs summon out of control. I had to wade through Vrocks (thank God you can drain from Vrocks) until I reached one of the staircases. I tried to turn on the summoners but every time I made a little progress, 1 Barbazu would summon 15 more. So we decided we'd rather play with dragons. :)

By the by, after several teleports and 4 new theaters of battle, I managed to kill all the dragons on this level. I gained about 2 million xp for my troubles...and the Dwarven Pick of Erebor (ick).

Erebor's activation is very nice, especially for an Unbeliever. Try it out, no more wading through Vrocks (unless you enjoy that sort of thing, of course.)
