A welcome back to Rogue Rebalancing!
Monday, June 4, 2007

I’d like to give a big, warm ‘welcome back’ to aVENGER and his mod Rogue Rebalancing, which is an attempt to bring Rogues back to their Pen and Paper 2E counterparts!


“The latest revision of Rogue Rebalancing doesn’t contain much new content, but I have done my best to make it more compatible with other mods. The installer has been completely rewritten and many of the mod components have been re-tooled in order to ensure grater compatibility. However, this revision does change some gameplay aspects as well, which are mostly related to the Shadow Thief improvements component.”


You can check out the Rogue Rebalancing forum here, the website here and you can download the latest version of the Rogue Rebalancing mod here! You can check out the announcement thread here.

Spellhold Gauntlet Released
Sunday, May 13, 2007

Zyraen’s fantastic Spellhold Gauntlet has just been released, including interjections, shorter Spellhold sequences and more!

Sick of Spellhold? Don’t want to have to go through the puzzles and the quests for the hundredth time just to escape? Well, this is the mod for you…

An extra apparition shows up in the area where you have a chance to pick up Imoen. It offers a simple alternative to the complicated puzzles and tests and levels that the Spellhold Maze offers: the Spellhold Gauntlet.

The Spellhold Gauntlet is a series of trials meant to test your limits, both your mettle and your resource management. If you survive you probably have considerable focus of both mind and body. In this chamber you shall be in the centre of the room and be continuously set upon by waves of enemies, and you will receive tokens in return for defeating each wave with which you can use to leave Spellhold, buy new items, and more.

You can download the Spellhold Gauntlet here, and visit the forum here, and find out more information here!

Spellhold Gauntlet Beta Released
Monday, April 16, 2007

An extra apparition shows up in the area where you have a chance to pick up Imoen. It offers a simple alternative to the complicated puzzles and tests and levels that the Spellhold Maze offers - the Spellhold Gauntlet.

The Spellhold Gauntlet is a series of trials meant to test your limits, both your mettle and your resource management. If you survive you probably have considerable focus of both mind and body. In this chamber you shall be in the centre of the room and be continuously set upon by waves of enemies, and you will receive tokens in return for defeating each wave.

This mod aims to fulfill a few aims
- provide a simple, accelerated route through Spellhold for players replaying it for the umpteenth time
- provide items that most players feel are too good to miss in Spellhold
- providing combative challenges to those who choose the harder waves
- providing XP comparable to the original route, or even more, depending on the difficulty of the waves
- providing an almost limitless stream of potential magic items (non-unique) for those who have the mettle to battle on in the Gauntlet

Check out the forum here, and you can find out more information here!

Having beta-tested it a bit myself, I can say that this is *definitely* a mod to download! It’s interesting, unique, and challenging - and can be played by anyone, whether you’re a tactical genius or, like me, you’re one who tends to charge through the battles in the game and hope for the best! Well worth playing at *least* once - I know it’s going into every one of my installs.
