Combat
plays an important part in Legends Of Cosrin; you will find that you
have to engage in mortal combat with all manner of evil creatures.
The first thing you will have to do is
ADVANCE
towards the enemy, if not using a missile weapon (like a bow or
crossbow).
After you have advanced, you will have to attack the creature. This is
done with the
KILL or
ATTACK
command. This can be abbreviated by just typing
A.
To attack a creature:
A 'Target'
If you leave off target, you will attack the first creature you are
engaged with.
Your skill with your weapon and the creature's defenses will determine
whether or not you hit and how much damage you do. Don't forget to
WIELD a weapon prior to entering combat!
You can
RETREAT from combat if things don't go so
well! To protect another player, you can use the
GUARD
command. A guarded player cannot be attacked physically by a creature.
Typing
RECALL will instantly teleport you back to
the START!
