    [​IMG] My best regards to every hero out there!

    I am close to finish the game with my fantastic (ehm ehm) party (bard, dwarf fighter, elf fighter/cleric, mage, cleric and a dual class fighter->thief).

    Was quite tough, but I got this far and I should be able to finish in a few days.

    My question: Has anybody beaten this damned AI with less than 6 characters?

    Best regards,
    Carlo

    [​IMG] I beat the game with four PCs. I know someone on the board did it with one and claimed not to cheat. Look at old posts around Sept. to see who did it. I think it would be EXTREMELY hard with less then three and I lack the time for all the reloads. Good luck on finishing the game.

    I also beat the game with four PCs. All GNOMES and they kicked some serious tail.

    i beat the game with 4 characters as well, and it was tough. but i aslo beat it with 3 characters and it was a real challenge. the end was by far the hardest with only 3 characters, but after a few tries i finally prevailed. as far as cheating, i use the max hit point button the whole time thru and had a Cap remover installed.

    Max Hit Point Button? Sounds interesting!!! I know how to cheat, and I admit that sometimes... But I didn't know about this magic button.

    I hope you would tell us more about it :)

    Thanks,
    Carlo

    [​IMG] Just go to your game options screen and look for it. I think it's clearly labeled Max hits points on level-up or something like that.

    [​IMG] yep, that will work. nice thing about it is, you can keep the button enabled until you reach a certain level, disable it, and still keep all your Hit Points.

    In the option screen? Hmmm, I guess I should read the manual with more attention.

    Thanks

    No wonder I've been having so much trouble I've been trying to play the game with one damn character

    Well rumour has it that you can beat the game with a single multiclassed fighter/thief/mage. As he gets all the XP he will go up in levels real quickly and become very powerful.
    But then again, rumour has it :)

    Well nor rumur - but fact.

    First time through I've beaten it with 3 chars - all multis F/T, R/C, F/M.

    Second one - single Fighter/Mage/Cleric.

    It was easy until Chap 6 - there I had some trouble but got it anyway.

    Details available on request. :D

    I beat IWD with only one character. I beat it with a Fighter/Thief. It's been so long since I've played it, but I think I had a level 13 Fighter/ level 14 some odd thief. I can't remember the XP cap detailes, but the fact is that I beat it with only one char. I tried beating it with only a Wizard afterward, but I quit after you start running into a bunch of trolls in the ice caves and such. (not enough fireball spells.) It's not that hard, just very tedious. Every little thing counts when you only have one char. I beat BG1 and BG2 with solo Magic-users. (BG1 - Conjurer, BG2 - Sorcerer) I have a VERY long attention span.
