- All RPG's are tough at the start: when funds are low and the party hasn't
- developed many special skills. The weapons you set out with aren't ideal and
- padded armour isn't much use against sharp-clawed foes. In the Bard's Tale
- games you can circumvent the usually slow money-gathering process with a spot
- of crafty cash exchanging. Create two parties in the camp at the start of the
- game and send the first one off to kill some monsters. When you've collected
- a sizeable loot say 2000 gold pieces - return to the camp. Give all the gold to
- one character and save the game. Take the guy with gold from the first party
- and put him in the second. Make him give all his money to one of the other
- party members and remove him from the second party. You can now add him again
- and he still has all his money - repeat as many times as you want until you
- think you've got enough money to last you through the game.
