I have rewrote this 5 times because I am non too happy with the extreme game balance problem.
Is there anyway to tone down the power and or numbers of the nuclear skeleton warriors I am facing (at 9th-10th lvl) that does not include playing outside of core rules!

HOLY FAK!

You see I really hate having to cheat.

(PS,,, Vlad what were you thinking)?

When I first started playing NEJ I would have agreed with you. Way back when it was only at 4.2 and part of the Mega install you were dead meat if you didn't know some tatics. It is difficult but doable. The walk thru has some tatics for those difficult areas. Remember they are undead use other tools then just hack 'n slash.

It was meant to be difficult and different, not a walk in the park. That is why better players want the tactic mods. I have to laugh about the first time I tried one. I thought what the h--- has happened to me?

Also remember it is your game and who are you cheating when you're playing the game the way you like it or set it up. The computer doesn't care and your the only player. I follow my own rules and play it the way I enjoy it. It is my virtual world and I get to be god in it. I ctrl-y'd many of the enemy till I got better, now they are not that tough but still lose to them now and then.

Try this instead of complaining. Step in the room if you can not take on all six or 10 yet crtl-y 3 of them, now it is set up for what you can handle right now. Next time try it with more and so forth but each to their own. Have fun.

I pretty much agree with everything said here. Cheating is definitely a sensitive subject, especially since EVERYONE has a different opinion on what constitutes cheating. Multi-player aside though, this is a one-player game. The one and only thing that matters is personal enjoyment.

I personally love frustratingly hard battles, play on Core exclusively thanks to my oldschool DnD background, (only gain 1hp from that level up? Sucks to be me!) and pretty much play w/ a no-reload policy if possible. (level-drains, deaths, unsuccessful scribes do not get reloads) However I use ctrl-J all the time. I don't find any enjoyment whatsoever watching my characters walk back out of a cleared dungeon or taking the long way to a point that I know has nothing in between. Does this make me a cheater? Hell yeah it does! Do I care? Not one bit.

If this Mod ends up being too difficult to enjoy, do whatever it takes to make it more enjoyable. I'm sure Vlad and the rest would have it no other way.
