- Play nethack anyway. They're pretty much the same as far as eating
- monsters goes, but there are more in Nethack.

-
- Spoilers - Which apply to NETHACK also. Same scrolls...
-
- "Scare monster"
-
- You can also drop this scroll and stand on it. Nothing will hit you except
- missile weapons. But beware - it's not so easy to pick back up again.

-
-
- "Croesus"
-
- Same as in Nethack, by the way...
-

-
- (Z)ap the weapon, for direction hit "."
-
-
- >Which is better, a mace or a flail?
-
- They both suck. I prefer the mace though.
-
- >Which does more damage, a crysknife or a 2 handed sword?
-
- I think the 2-handed sword does, but the crysknife is much easier to hit
- a creature with. If I remember correctly, a crysknife does the same
- damage as a longsword, which is something like 4-12 damage. A 2-handed
- can to 1-20 damage but is difficult to hit anything with, especially
- small monsters, and you cannot carry a shield.
-
- Play nethack!
