But my selection would rule the day! :-)))

And the other artifacts as well - the map would be a regular map and the heroes would each go their separate way - the other heroes could be transferred to a city they would have to defend against The Chosen One. That way all artifacts could play their role.

Well, then I should do reasonably, especially if I get a decent set of forces to command!

Ah... But there is the rub. At the begining of the map you get one sprite, one bandit, one berzerker, and one squire. :D

Gaidal Cain - Oh, the Ring would be everything! It protects your army from anti-enchantments, allowing you to cast spells like Mass Fervor, Mass Bless, Cat Reflexes, Potions of Immortality etc without risking your move being cancelled by a level 1 Necromancer. The Ring manifests its powers in the battle itself, not outside of it. That's why, I guess, pepak and wimfrits want it as much as I.

pepak - That's what you think. I think my selection would do excellently (with an army, of course) as well.

Ring of Permanency 14000.
Boots of Travel 19500.

Hmm, there seems to be a shortage of items available for 73 GP. I guess I'll have to watch only from now on...

Which of the artifacts grants you a level 1 necromancer to use in battle?

Easy- it doesn't give you any penalties to initiative and mana costs.

At this point please consider EVERYTHING left for sale in the Auction on FINAL BID :beg:

There are only a few items left out there and it looks like someone will spend all their money in order to obtain the last items so I forsee outragious bids. This should speed that process.

I may update Bid #1 and clsoe out the sold items in Lot #15 this weekend. That will make it easier for me to show who has what money for the final items.

Well Kalah got the blade and he probably figured he would only get the chain.

The blade is a much better artifact... even for the summoner.
