CIP: HOFi of Beogh
I've never really played with Beogh before, so thought I'd give it a try. This game is looking promising (been pretty lucky with items, too), though I don't yet have a good sense for how the Beogh mechanics work. I've accumulated quite a few Orcs, though I lost several to hydras in Lair.
I decided to back out of Lair for now and head to Orc. Am I right to assume that I will attract quite a following there or does the conversion rate drop off as I get a larger entourage?
Do you have any advice on how best to use the Give Item ability? Heavy armour for priests worthwhile? Just any random branded weapon I find for warriors/knights?
It's definitely a very different kind of play style than I'm used to, as I'm not used to having allies that I actually care about keeping alive. So far it's pretty fun, though. I like the random speech from the orcs.
