Borg Winner for 320

[APWhite]

This one used munchkin_mode until about clevel 20. It progressed normally for most of the game. I found some errors in the code relating to collecting *Heal* potions. This kept him from winning earlier on. It probably delayed the win by about 4 million turns.

He found a =Speed +16, but decided to trade in one of the Rings of Power. The borg really likes Immunities. He found 3 rings of power.

He found Razorback and carried for a swap armor for a long time. He traded out some Law DSM for that White DSM of Speed. I'm not sure why he would do that.

His swap weapon was Deathwreaker but I never saw him use it.

He collected about 40 *Heals*, and 62 Life. He used about 20 *Heal* during the Morgoth combat. It went pretty smoothly. Whenever his HP dropped below 700, he drank a potion.

Thanks for posting this. It reminded me to get the borg going on my new system. I've posted a script that will compile the borg on linux.

Could you switch to fixed-width font for that dump? It is hard to read this kind of information with variable-width font.

BTW your char dump shows one of the downsides of the fractional blows change in 3.2:

t) The Mace of Disruption ‘Deathwreaker’ (7d8) (+18,+18) (+6)
Conjured forth by magic at 4650 feet (level 93).
....
Combat info:
6.0 blows/round.
....

MoD:s are so heavy you should not be able to get six blows out of them no matter what stats you have. It makes MoD <insert favorite ego> insane weapons.

While I liked the fractional blows I don't like the fact that that again made game easier.

There is at least two not immediately obvious "deep" things that made game easier: allocation rarities do not go high enough with new system and fractional blows allowing max blows with very heavy weapons.

Neither of those were intentional - I consider them both as bugs to be fixed.

I am surprised that anyone gets 6 blows with Deathwreaker - that shouldn't be possible. I must have made a mistake in the new blows table. I've opened #1535 for this.

The rarity issue did not have its own ticket - it's mentioned in #1150 and #1179 - but I have repurposed #720 to be explicit about this.
