1.1 - Weapons and Armour
****************************************************

One of the main things people are unclear about in LORD is 
how weapons and armour work. When you buy a weapon in
King Arthur's Weapons, the weapon has a certain strength
based on how much you paid for the weapon. The more 
you payed, the harder the weapon hits. Here is the weapon 
list, with costs-

1. Stick                                    200 
2. Dagger                                   1,000
3. Short Sword                              3,000
4. Long Sword                               10,000 
5. Huge Axe                                 30,000
6. Bone Cruncher                            100,000
7. Twin Swords                              150,000
8. Power Axe                                200,000
9. Able's Sword                             400,000
10. Wan's Weapon                            1,000,000
11. Spear of Gold                           4,000,000
12. Crystal Shard                           10,000,000
13. Nira's Teeth                            40,000,000
14. Blood Sword                             100,000,000
15. Death Sword                             400,000,000

If you decide to sell your weapon, you will get about half
of the money you bought the weapon for.

Armour works the same way, sort of. The more you spend, 
the less hit points you get taken away from you. 

******************************************************
1.2 Skill Classes
******************************************************

In the game, you are always interested in a certain skills.
The skills have certain advantages and disadvantages. Here 
they are-

Death Knight Skills- You are a member of the Death Knights, 
which can inflict twice as much damage as a regular warrior
when you use your skills. (To get the skills faster, pick 1 
in the death knight dungeon on odd numbered days, and 2 on 
even numbered days.)

  Advantages- VERY POWERFUL
                                                                  
  Disadvantages- Takes a while to master, don't go to dungeon         
                 often.


Mystical Skills- You were always interested in dabbling in
                 the Mystical forces. 

Some skills are- Pinch real hard, Disappear, Heat Wave, Light 
                 Sheild, Shatter, and Mind Heal. 

(To gain skills faster, this is the way to guess numbers. Guess 50, 
and then guess 25 either higher or lower <depending on what he says>, 
then guess 12 more or less, then 6, then 3. That leaves you with 2 
numbers. Now, instead of having a 1 percent chance to guess the number,
you have a 50 percent chance of doing it.)

  Advantages-    More powerful than Death Knight at higher levels.
                                                                       
  Disadvantages- Hard to kill people early in the game with the
                 skills.


Theiving Skills- A member of the theives guild, you are 
sometimes hated because of your job. But remember,  "Even 
theives have honor."

  Advantages- Quick to master, powerful, able to rob bank.

  Disadvantages- Not very powerful.


**********************************************************
1.3 The Forest and the Inn
***********************************************************

The forest and inn are two of the most useful places in LORD. 
Here are the benefits of each-

**********************************************************
1.31 The Forest
**********************************************************

Fairies- Bring you back to life, give you horses, and help 
you rob the bank!

Hammer Stone- Increases attack strength.

Old Man- Increases charm, as well as money.

Old Witch- Free hit point for a gem.

Gems- Purchase things at the Inn, get more Theiving skills.

Dark Cloak Tavern- Gamble, Learn about Colors, Learn about
your enemies, (hehehehe) and change your skills.

************************************************************
1.32 The Inn
************************************************************

The Bartender- Buy elixers, attack enemies, change your name

Seth Able- (one of the following)
	 -One extra forest fight
	 -Two extra forest fights
	 -Three extra forest fights
	 -Hit Points maxed out
	 -One extra hit point
	 -Extra charm point
	 -Double Money in bank

Flirting with Violet of Seth Able (depending on gender)
You can gain exp. and possibly a spouse if you have over 
100 charm when you ask them to marry you. It might not 
always be a smart idea to marry them, because when
(YES, WHEN) they divorce you you'll only have 50
charm left. 

Engaging in conversation always makes you more popular, 
and that may help you build alliances. 

***********************************************************
1.4 Advancing in Levels
***********************************************************

Advancing in levels is perhaps the single most important 
thing in LORD. Advancing to level 12 enables you to 
(S)earch and fight The Red Dragon in the forest. Always
question your master in Turgon's Training center. If he 
says you don't need __ more exp. than you can challenge 
him and hopefully defeat him to advance a level.

************************************************************
2.0 Expert Tips-
************************************************************

************************************************************
2.1 The "JENNIE" Code   
************************************************************

When you begin the game, check and see if you are in "high
spirits" If you are, you can do the "JENNIE" trick. Here is how
to do this-

Go straight into the forest, and, before you touch 
anything, type "JENNIE" and it will ask you to describe her. 
Here is what you can typ, and the results....

	FOXY- one extra gem
	BABE- one extra forest fight
	SEXY- one extra user fight
	LADY- some gold (level x 1,000 gold pieces)
	DUNG- You are turned into a frog until you apologize.
	UGLY- You are booted back to the home BBS, and when
	      you return, you have 2 hit points left.
	FAIR- No effect
	STAR- No effect
	HOTT- Adds 15% more hit points
        COOL- she thinks your cool to notice that

        If you want to get to the top fast, we reccomend using Lady everytime
You get money faster therefore, you get better weapons and armour.

************************************************************
2.2 Bugs and Tricks
************************************************************

-Don't change your name so often. It will sometimes lock up 
 the BBS.

-Press "B" in the forest to deposit money in the bank

-Try pushing "S" from the entry to LORD game prompt. It will 
 tell you a story written by Seth Able (VERY WEIRD).

-When selecting a name at the bartender, try some of these and
 see what happens-

BARAK, SETH, SETH ABLE, TURGON, RED DRAGON, DRAGON, VIOLET, BARTENDER, CHANCE
	
-If you are a theif and have a fairy, press "2" in the bank to rob it.
