Jeff Lait's Vicious Orcs 7DRL rewards attention to detail in play.
- Your physical ranged attacks have the same limitations as the monsters'. Use this to predict not only safe squares to move to, but ambush points.
- Monsters won't pass through secret doors. They aren't so inhibited about normal doors. So, don't reveal secret doors until the coast is clear.
- Cowards would rather be diagonally adjacent to @ than orthogonal to @. That is, faced with this
..@. #..# #r.# ####
Move here to give a free attack
.... #@.# #r.# ####
rather than here to take a free attack
.... #.@# #r.# ####
- The kitchen knife's inaccuracy will make your life distressingly short. Upgrade As Soon As Possible.
- Prioritze what to have repaired. There should be enough money to end with top-end armor, bow, and weapon. [Whether the dungeon has all three of these is another question.] If you don't bleed the money away in combat.
