Known Issues and Limitations Many stuffs are still WIP due to transitioning, this submod is very old, and in general need of new polishing. The story, dialogue and plot is a bit on the uhh...eheh side. Most of the details are not readily explained or included in the gameplay itself. Probably lots of typos. The writer is a Panada, who cannot be entrusted with quality spellchecks. Balance The fight can either be nigh impossible or cakewalk depending on how much you prepare.
