Hey all, I tried a party of all Insectoids initially as a joke, but accidently saved over my actual party said bugger it and kept them. So far I am almost done with level 2 and I have breezed through this without the slightest bit of trouble. (I know still early on.) Do you think I made a mistake in the long term, and will be forced to remake? Or should I trudge through it, I actually have grown quite fond of my little insects, they are tougher than they look.

My front line is 2 fighters, with Insectoid armor. My back is 2 mages, ice/air and fire/earth respectively. Hope this works out in the end, if nobody has an idea and people find this interesting I can report back my progress. I am on medium difficulty, not old school.

Nah you'll be fine, let us know how it goes!

Daniel.

It's a disadvantage due to carrying capacity and stats for the melee guys (good luck with all that steel armor!) but it's not going to be IMPOSSIBLE. Imagine the bragging rights.

I think if I was going with insectoids I would go with 2 dodge rogues in front, my party now is 1 fighter 2 rogues, and one mage. the rouge does tend to die more than the minotaur fighter, but with some gear and a few more levels I think it might be up there with him

Using Insectoid for it's Food consumption advantage.
