On another note, now that I've watched it, why does everyone think that getting the head in from ten feet away is such a fête? HAVE YOU EVER GOTTEN IT IN FROM THE START OF THE LEVEL?
YES? Well okay, so have I!

Having fun with poser horses and pasted-on Warrior torsos since 1990!™
I'd heard that it could be blasted in, and I know you can also heal soulblighter to get rid of him, but I prefer extreme drama for the final moment of the game. I always set up the trick recommended in the strategy guide--using three dwarves as decoys and sending the other on a mad rush toward the devoid. Usually he doesn't make it before SB kills the other three and then gets to him, but often I can get the dwarf's death to propel the head in if I time his throw perfectly. Much more fun that way!

heh, that's a real adrenaline rush!
I enjoyed it capital. Good Job
That thing about blasting Balor's head into the devoid with a satchel was cool. I never knew you could do that.
Great work, Cap >:-] A shining tribute to a fabulous game. I've just reloaded TFL to reminisce a little.
I look forward to the Director's Cut DVD, featuring such wonderful features as:
The animal etchings on the plains of 5 Champions;
Mudpit 3r2g0s;
The Stickler Warz;
An OH map close-up of a STB kick-off in carnage dark;
The Marathon logo sighting;
The stuck zerk and bleeding ground on that wet ffa map... the name of which I can't remember.

Heh, now that you mention the stuck zerk, et al. I must say I had a ton of footage left over (about 29 gigs : 60 minutes of raw footage) When it came to press into service all those gigs, I had to do a lot of editing to just get a small fraction of the total footage into the space of ~6 mins. However, considering I am dialup, I am not sure an extended DVD could be that forthcoming, however look for a new myth teaser movie soon(TM).

That part gave me shell shock flashbacks from days when I was on the receiving end. Passworded games soon followed
It also reminded me of the time my zerk started attacking itself. OMG now that was a great bug, err feature... watching your own unit swinging its sword at the air while bleeding out and dying. Gawd I wish I kept films.
Good stuff cap! Hehehe the Monday Night Football music is classic!
