That was great fun! Thanks everybody :)

Some tips though:

-Use the keys Q,W,E,A,S,D to move forward, backward, side-step, turn, etc. I find these keys to be much easier to use when moving my character, and it also gives a greater flexibility than using the mouse since you can actually turn in place. It also doesn't hurt your mouse-finger as much.

-Right-click on the little arrow on top of the text-window. Enable DM-speech in the window. By default the DM-speech is turned off for some odd reason. That means that by default you only see what the DM says on screen, but it doesn't show up on the chatbox. I don't think anybody wants that as the default option..

-To walk instead of run you can do several things. The easiest (IMO) is to use 'Detect Mode'. When you get hit you are automatically out of Detect Mode. Unfortunately this means you have to press the Detect Mode button again to run when monsters jump you.
Another way is to use Shift-Click. When you press shift and click on a location, your character walks there. Unfortunately, the shift-method doesn't work with the movement keys on the keyboard.
A third, and most cumbersome way, is to use UO-style movement. Hold down the mouse-button and move like you do in UO. Hurts your mouse-finger, though.

-I've got a whole quick-bar devoted to voice commands. You can get most voice-commands from the radial menu, either on 'Commands' (for commanding henchmen) or under the Emotes. I just put them all under the shift-quickbar for easy using.
You can also press the 'V' button for more voice-commands, in case you didn't know.


Anyway, I hope the next part of the mini-campaign is soon - I can't wait!
