Bard's Tale series rocked, probably my favorite "classic" games
(although I played them mostly on C64).
@-D-
I started off on Bard's Tale with my old Apple IIe, before I got my first A500. I remember when I 'upgraded' that poor thing. I traded it in, plus 150$ for an A500 with a fully populated ADDRam card, 2.04 roms and Trumpcard SCSI controller with a whopping 80 meg HDD. (Sadly, with that drive, *I* was the big boy on the block.)
Sigh...Imagine my suprise when I found out that A) I had a 'NEW' rev5 mobo, instead of my old rev6, so they sliced a trace on the board and added some funky wiring to make the 2.04 rom work and B) Bard's Tale was a 1.3 only game. :-o I couldn't play it, even with a softkick disk, 'cos it wouldn't load, due to the sliced trace. I was devastated. :-(
[EDIT] -
IF anyone still PLAYS BT, I have a hacked character ADF disk, so Garth sells EVERY item in the game, if you want a copy. It was MUCH easier to just BUY them armor and weapons, instead of creating new characters, everytime my party died. :-D I think I still have my character, GOLD, on it who has a couple of million or so in gold. :lol:
