        This is a pretty good start.

     I would also add in the ability for mobs to attack multiple
targets(can't remember the name of the snippet).

     Add an RP base for the mud, so that mobs are actually there for more
than just beating up. (Although it can be fun sometimes)

     The ranged weapons patch is a good one to add, so that you don't
always have to be up close and personal w/ the mob

    I don't know if I'd be willing to take anything out besides quite a
few of the stock areas.


Ascii pfiles are to easy to edit from an outsied editor (vi for
instance), and would allow anyone w/ access to the circle directory to
play around w/ the players files.
