Ultima cheats / Ultima hints / Ultima faqs / Ultima solutions Ultima hints Technical File- Revision 2 5/2/95 Written by: Plaid Dragon (joepran@telerama.lm.com) The newest version of this file is always availible from my homepage: http://www.lm.com/~joepran/ultima.html Note from the author- This is one of three hint files for Ultima 1. This file is called the tech file and should be U1TECH.TXT. The other two are the walkthrough and the hint files, U1WALK.TXT and U1HINT.TXT. If you are stuck, I highly recommend the hint file first as it deals with general Q&A. If you are still stuck (besides sending whatever is your question to Plaid Dragon for possible addition to the respective files), you should consult the walkthrough. This file is where you would look for general info, such as shop lists and prices and other such information. Oh yea, and I stuck the credits and revision history here too. Nyah. Another note- This document will be in a state of flux until every detail is hammered down (Rabbit Ears). I will alphabetize the towns and caves later. The missing section is incomplete as I'm not sure I've gotten everything. I'll add it in a day or so.

These are human, dwarf, elf, and bobbit. While I have no idea what the differences are, I'm going to hazard a guess. Mail me if you know more. Human- Average in everything Dwarf- High Strength, good for fighters Elf- High Intelligene, good for wizards Bobbit- ??? Good at cutting off extremities? 1.2 The Sexes In Ultima 1, you can be either male or female. What the difference is, I don't know. Another mail me if you know. Male- Possible higher strength? Female- Possible higher intelligence? 1.3 The Professions In Ultima 1, you can be one of 4 professions. They are fighter, cleric, wizard, and thief. I don't think they coorespond to the 4 races tho. Once again, I'm going to hazard a guess. Fighter- Requires high strength, best at fighting Cleric- Requires high wisdom, good spell casting Wizard- Requires high intelligence, good spell casting Thief- Requires high agility, golod stealing Section 2: Getting along in the world 2.1 The Commands The following is a list of all of the commands and what they do: A Attack- Attacks an enemy using readied weapon.
