That was good enough that I went through it 4 times. It is a little long I guess, but that was just another plus in my book.

That was actually pretty fun.  A nice little "Chose your own adventure" type game.

Tried it several times now... you can actually piss off the gods enough where they send a messenger to smite you.

Yeah, that was my second play-through.  It actually tainted my third.  I went all smarty-pants the first time so I thought I'd go all kill-kill the second.  Unfortunately, that got me smote.  Sos I used that knowledge to go all kill-kill and not get smote.  Overall, it's a damned fun li'l timewaster.

Stupid goddess of war killing me. I had 16750 gold though when she did!

I pretty much played as brutal and was worshipped until the stupid avatar killed me.

Yeah, things go damned well when you're a brutal god-wannabe.  And then you die.

Nice... Note to self: Stop clicking on such links around here. Just dropped an hour and a half playing it. I have yet to get myself killed, despite my best efforts.

From what I can tell, it seems that they don't smite ya until you're at Blasphemy 3.  In other words, you can do 2 of the things that may anger the gods, but not all.  Or so it seems.

Forgot to copy my stats for the first play through, oh well.
I remember I had a pretty sizable hoard (not as much as Ellorin but enough to get by) but lacked a mate.
Being worshiped
You can allow the people to worship you and not gain blasphemy. You simply act like you don't care and are just using their religion for monetary benefits (meaning you realise you are not a god, just a manipulator)

Is there any way to get a dragon companion? I've tried three times and I've failed all of them. It's making me very depressed.

I just want a sexy lady dragon to keep me company.

I had one.  I had her move in with me.  It then warned me about how I'd have to be extra vigilant when she went into hibernation - only to never mention her again.  That playthrough I went with the brutish, kill-kill method, chose to hunt for a mate, chose the smart black dragon and impressed her by leveling a town.  Worked that time anyway.  Oh, I'm pretty sure I lost wealth when I went and found her, too.

Hrm... I got the black one by challenging him to a game of wits and winning without cheating.  And since I used my spies to find 'em, I didn't lose any wealth.  'course, I was cunning that time, so that helped with my chosen method.

I only really tried to get one the one time it worked.  The other times I either said forget it or went with the lazy approach.  Maybe I'll play once and try to get one with Cunning.

Hrm... does the lazy approach work?  (wait for one to come by)  Maybe if you had a huge hoard and sky-high infamy...
