FAANGBAND SPECIALTIES EVERY UPGRADE
various changes and additions to the wilderness map, guardians, depths in particular, added the Great Grey Wolf and a slight upgrade to Boldog, the Orc Captain, to have missile attack. Minimise number of townsfolk who drop gold. Scale down upper end of monster drop sizes. Added spells that modify a single round of blows, shooting or throwing.

Modified low-level bard spells, replacing Holy Water with a more bard specific spell. This makes them highly useful for archers/throwing specialists as well as mage-type spell casters which do not use gloves/gauntlets. Rings of ice/acid/fire/electricity now have the appropriate brand. * For throws and ammunition, only your left hand ring is checked. * Except for blows with your secondary weapon, which use your left-hand ring. * If you have no gauntlets, instead, your right hand ring. * In melee, your gloves/gauntlets are checked first. If the weapon you are attacking with or the ammo you are firing / item you are throwing is not an ego item, artifact, coated weapon or magic item, it will inherit brands/slays from your equipment as follows: This allows bad melee practitioners to increase their odds of hitting by blocking. If the player is blocking, he gets a +20 to hit in melee and +15 to hit with bows/throwing. Some changes are listed as tentative, please test and provide feedback.

Social-status scumming to become a king's only child is not OK. Doing quickstart every time you die you'll also get more monster memory, which is OK in this competition (since code-diving is allowed, anyway). To play the freshly downloaded competition savefile, load the character, quit, start again, answer 'y' to quickstart question and you'll have no problems with some dungeon guardians prematurely dead (those not in the game when the competition savefile was created). Savefiles are compatible, unless the level you are on has fallen out of the levels range of the current dungeon, so it's safest to upgrade when in Rivendell, Bree, Hobbiton or Bucklebury (their depths are unchanged). This is a work in progress (and moreover interim, by Bandobras) release, so please save often and report bugs.
