It reminds me of good old Diablo 1 days when I used to play games on IronMan rule-set all the time. Maybe the next version of Ivan should contain Challange modes like DooMRL?

While dangerous, mustard gas granades are to usefull to be left behind. Ever made it past Elpuri's portal? The strange place made of rare jevels and magic metals? Gas Granades are the best and also safest way of getting rid of THE MAGE ROOM OF DOOM!!! placed there. They are also the best way to get your hands on Justifier, kill shops guards and clerks.

Mustard Gas from the very beggining combined with hardly any healing potions does makes CVS a hard nut to crack. The only gas mask in the game belongs to Ivan, and wasting a wish to get one before GC 9 is too much.

Close automatic forum registation and provide new accounts only to people who write e-mail requests. Also, block unregistrated editing on wiki to prevent flood of dickjokes flying around. There are ways to protec this forum integrity and well-being from forum trolls and /b/tards.

And propably average when using two-handers.

The best way of mirroring stuff is to zap self while holding two items we want to mirror plus 4 on the ground under char's feet and then take copies from mirror image dude. This way it is possible to mirror up to 6 things for each shot instead of 5.

CG7, Lots of undead orcs, just orcs, necros and Golgor-Dan. I got me some serious wounds, so I applayed (broke) my last wand of tele and teleported myself to the secret room to heal up. There were some mines inside (as usual, 3 big ones), but i've got levitation belt so I didn't mind them. By wierd luck an orc standing next to me while I was breaking the wand got teleported also next to me. It would be okay, but he triggered a mine and that explosion have killed me.

Blind luck I think. Atavus once gave me a chest with scroll of wishing AND wand of cloning inside (such a nice dude). Popo, CVS also keeps track on praying, but for some reason it is unabel to keep a track on Valp and Mort (maybe due o their 50h cooldown time).

Well, that what Willpower is implemented for in CVS. The problem is - how it should be raised? By zapping self with wands, sci-talk or getting hit by fireballs? It also seems to me that having ~100 INT and WIS already helps surviving some spells (but by means dedecting caster before he casts a spell and teleporting near him in order so sodomize his fragile body with cold metal blade).

Use all possible tricks that you can think of - even if they give only a shade of chance they might save your arse. Check everything twice. Odds are ALWAYS against you, ALWAYS! Even weakest of foes can rip your head of your shoulders if they are lucky. Constant paranoia is the way, beacause the worst and most wicked possible scenario of brutal demise is the one that will happen if you act carelessly.
