Ultima 7: Black Gate Hints
A note about this UHS file...
Well, to start with, Ultimas are not too easy to write an UHS file for. The games are not always linear and sometimes it's impossible to explain just how to navigate through a certain dungeon.
That's why I decided to divide this file into three sections. The most useful is the "General Tips" section. It includes information on how to play the game, where to find stuff and people, etc.
The other two parts are the hints themselves. The Black Gate hints are further divided into "Vital Quests" -- you have to solve them to finish the game -- and "Side Quests", which you may solve for the enjoyment of playing and, sometimes, for substantial rewards. Also the Elizabeth & Abraham line is written down for you, should you ever lose track of the couple. Following them around is the easiest way to gain information and finish the game (although you mush also follow the Time Lord lead...)
The Forge of Virtue is a side adventure, but it is big enough to put it into a separate section.
