    How long has it been out for then ???!!! It came out last week here
    (England).
    
    I found a bug in it; are there many ? The system bombed when I tried
    to climb down a pit just past the "Give up; pull the lever" wall
    just as some creatures were about to pulp me ...

    Well, I finally got Chaos Strikes back, and, I also got ahold of some
    maps for it.. I anyone would like, I could upload the maps into my
    directory, in an ARC format, and you could copy them. They are not
    totally complete, from what I understand, but, as the guy said, I'ts
    better than nothing... I got them from Compuserve.

    I just got Chaos Strikes Back.
    
    It's was worth buying an ST just to play Dungeon Master and Chaos looks
    even better.
    
    	But much harder!!! 
    
    Re -1 
    I had the maps quite early into Dungeon Master,and I feel they spoiled
    the game a little.I'll try Chaos without (but please don't delete
    them just yet)

For those of us too busy getting annihalated to map, can you give us a pointer
to the maps. I've got a lot of pieces of paper with scrawlings on them, but I'm
really not sure about their accuracy given the enormous amount of wierdness going
on in the new dungeon. Any corroborative evidence would be a great help.

Thanks in advance.

Neil.

    My previous note regarding the maps, was a bit say, hasty. I do have
    the maps, and finally got down to actually playing Chaos last night
    using them. Unfortunatly, they are not complete, (as previously stated)
    and, I had some trouble using them. Level 2 seems to be complete, but
    level 1 and level 3 seem to be missing some areas. I was up untill 2:00
    this A.M. playing, and ran into the Dragon on LIII. I couldn't defeat
    him, so, I went to bed, and drempt Dungeon Master for the rest of the
    night. I can upload the maps I have, maybe somebody else can make some
    sense of them. 
    	They are drawn in Degas, maybe elite? I'm not sure, I don't have
    the Elite version of Degas. I am currently in the process of drawing my
    own set  of maps, and if I do it in a reasonable time frame, I will
    upload that. If you want the present maps, write me a email at the
    above node address, and I will upload into my account here, and make
    them available..

    In the March edition of ST Action there is a 2 page hint section
    on Chaos Strikes Back. It gives details of people trapped in the
    prison such as strentgh, stamina and mana. It also gives details
    on the various "nasties" down there as well as a list of spells
    and what they do. I can't think of anything else. If you want a
    copy of these hints then send a mail to Robert Sheldon @UBO and
    I will send you a photocopy.
    
    Robert.

    	I finished the game a while back, so if anyone needs hints let me
    know.   

    	Thanks for the offer in .8. 
    
    	The knights with two swords are causing my group death. I have
    	tried fighting them with weapons while zapping them with spells
    	from the back row. They do not fall down! After a while I hear
    	the cry of the crow in the distance and its time to reload a
    	saved game. Worse, the knights seem to seek my group out
    	- usually in a DEAD-END.
    
    	Have you got maps?
    
    	I like the game but my group seem as impotent as a baby hobbit
    	when confronted by the Nazghul.

    	I have maps, but only on graph paper. Mapping was very hard, much
    harder then D.M.
    	Some knight info follows:
    
    	Fireballs are of little or no use against knights, only weapons
    seem to work.  They are not real fast, so if you can catch them in a
    four step area you can keep hitting them, then move.  They have very
    high hit points.   All my characters were at least first level masters
    in all four classes.  Made monster bashing a little easier.  I thought
    I read somewhere that the dispel spell works on knights but never
    tried it.  Good luck.
    	Tom

    I have killed knights using fireballs only, but it does take a lot of
    them. I had to do this after I fell into the "Surrender Your
    Possesions" pit, and didn't have any weapons.

    
    What I used to do in DM was to get behind a door and open it a fire
    with everything I had then close the door, rest, then have another go.
    Seemed to work.

I read in a magazine recently that there are secret doors to be found
in the hall of champions. Going down the revealed staircases, you find
some more mirrors; those containing the REAL heroes!

    I read in a magazine that to defeat a dragon cast the spell MON
    ZO GOR SAR. Then freeze the game by pressing the ESC key. Holding
    down the ALT key type in LORD LIBRASULUS SMITES THEE DOWN. If this
    works you should kill the dragon and it will leave behind several
    dragon steaks and the Firestaff so your party will become invincible
    and you can win the game. I tried it but the message said that the
    spell was meaningless perhaps you may have better luck.
    
    Robert.
    
    P.S. Swaff-) if you read this can you send me your full address
    so I can send you the Chaos hints again.

    
    
    Just a quick addendum to my last message, yuor party must be stood
    IN FRONT of the dragon.
    
    Robert.

    	In the July edition of ST Format there is a Chaos Strikes Back
    editor.
    	You can view or print the maps,open/close all doors or edit
    the dungeon,using your save game.

    I got this game about a year ago but have had almost zilch success with
    it.  In the priest section, how do you get by all the pits and the
    "Diabolical Deamon Director" place?!  
    
    Help with the wizard section?!??
    By the way, how the heck do you open the door to the REAL prisoners??!?
    
    Please, I need help badly!
    
    Tanks in advance
    Wes

    It's me again. I went in again and the door was open! I don't know how
    it happened but it did.
    
    Is "LOR CHAMPION OF GOOD" the only super prisoner, or are there many
    more. (PLEASE!!!)
