TODAY'S SUBJECT IS: HOW TO KILL A BALROG SOLO!

BALROG IS NOT AN EASY TARGET, HE SPITS FIRE, SLASHES AROUND
WITH HIS WHIP OF FLAMES, MAKES SOME DISTURBING NOISES ETC.
SO FIRST THING - GEAR YOURSELF!
RUNED GREAVES AND GOLDENED GAUNTLETS FOR SPEED ARE A MUST!
THEN YOU NEED A DECENT FIRE PROTECTION, USE CHAIN HAUBERK
OR MAGICAL CLOAK OF GELAN*.
FOR BODY ARMOUR I SUGGEST YOU USE BLACK PLATEMAIL AND AS
A HEAD PROTECTION - FRIGHTENING LOOKING HELMET WOULD BE GREAT
TO START THE FIGHT.

OKIE, AS YOU MAY REMEMBER, BALROG RESIDES IN MORIA ("AND THEY
CALL IT A MINE! A MINE!!!"). JUST BRING SOME LIGHT AND HIT
HIM, USING YOUR HELMET.
THIS Is FIGHT WILL BE QUICK, AS BALROG WILL SMASH YOU TO
PIECES IN NO TIME.
SUFFER BORING CHAT WITH DEATH (YOU CANNOT DO NOTHING THERE
ANYWAY), CHOOSE YOUR BODY AND ENTER THE WORLD AGAIN.

AND NOW COMES THE SECRET OF DEFEATING HIM!
RUSH TO NEARES POST OFFICE, MAIL GORBOTH. CLAIM IT WAS
UNPROVOKED ATTACK, BALROG IS HUGE, YOU WERE AWAY FROM PC,
YOU LOST SOME GREAT ARMOURS, AND DIDN'T EVEN SCRATCH THE
ENEMY, IT WAS UNFAIR ETC. SAY YOU WANT YOUR STATS, STUFF AND
MONEY BACK, AND GORBOTH THE NICE MORGUL WILL DO THE REST!
NOW YOU ARE FIRST SOLO BALROG KILLER!

NEXT WEEK - HOW TO CATCH A CHESTLOOTER OF GLADIATORS GUILD.
