Re: Ultima rules
You do realize that the rules are significantly different between each Ultima, right?
And you do also realize what a heavy task you're asking for?
Third, why don't you look this information up yourself? Even the crappiest of search engines can find Ultima game info easily. Just type stuff like "Ultima 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/Ascension/SI/UW/UW2/Savage Empire" "FAQ" and voila!

Me neither. Especially since he just misspelled his own name. And no, don't
tell me that's a typo, because the Q is nowhere near the X, not even when
using DVORAK.

Re: Ultima rules
Well, to his defense, the q is right next to the tab key, the key most people use to advance to the next typing field

Re: Ultima rules
Really guys,
It does not suit you or this forum to flame a guy simply for asking for information regarding Ultimas....
It's not that far-fetched to think someone typed up a document with the rules for the games.. and if such a document existed people here might know of it..
That's my opinion at least...

Re: Ultima rules
Rules!?!?
We're not flaming him for asking for information, we're flaming his usage
of the word 'rules' in reference to a game like Ultima. Ultima doesn't -have-
rules, that's the whole point.

Re: Ultima rules
But you must admit that there are friendlier ways to tell him. AD&D games or the Realms of Arkania series, for instance, *have* rules, so someone who doesn't know other RPGs might think that every (computer) role playing game has a set of "rules".

Re: Ultima rules
Friendlier ways aren't as fun. Geez, you act like flaming actually includes
real malice or something. Doesn't everyone have jokes or humor in their
country?

Re: Ultima rules
Hmmm... *checks country*
Nope. No jokes or humour here. Oh wait... here's some sarcasm... will that do?

Re: Ultima rules
I think the question about "rule" mechanisms in Ultima is not that bad after all.
I never understood how the trainer worked, for instance. In the walkthrough there stood what raises they were supposed to give, but they often deviated a good deal from that, especially with good old Boydon. He got a net +6 to his scores each time he trained with Shazzana. Don't ask me why, though.
