Title: Blood and Magic
Post by: hook on April 28, 2003, 12:05:44 pm: once played an awesome demo of a fantasy stratagy/frp called Blood and Magic, and was stunned by its greatness - it\'s very old and i\'ve been searching all my life to find myself a copy, and i\'ve, to this point, failed miserably :(

the only time i\'ve ever seen or heard of any copy available, it was in the only game-store that ever heard about the game. i reserved the copy for myself instantly, but when i came to the store, they sold it in front of my eyes to another guy - it was also the most expensive game i\'ve ever seen - that time that i wanted to buy it it was old maybe already 5 years, and it was second-hand, but it cost 50? (other second-hand games at that store where 10?)

so i was wondering if any of you know this game, or even possess it (i mean, it\'s abandonware by now, for sure, it should be older then 10 years now!!)

You can download a demo there, I think.

but thanks anyways

neat, but do they ship to Slovenia? ...btw, is the price still that sky-high?

Post by: Xalthar on June 17, 2003, 06:03:07 pm: Actually, It cost about 20 kr, which is about 2.5? or so.... so the prices weren\'t high, at least not in Merlin

I don\'t think they ship to slovenia, but I have the game compiled in winrar... not that it does you any good... :(

Post by: Xalthar on June 19, 2003, 04:10:41 pm: What I meant was that I don\'t know how to give the game to you... it doesn\'t matter that it\'s rar\'ed, you can just unrar it..
