The original Angband +dungeon has been split into 4 parts, each found near or at a +different town. Travel between towns is usually easiest by +using the wilderness overview map ("<" from the town level), +but remember to take lots of food with you! + +#####GThe Basic Dungeons +#####G------------------ + +#####G1. Barrow-Downs +Found near the outskirts of Bree (the starting town), this +dungeon is where you should begin your adventure. It +contains the main Dungeon levels 1 (50') to 10 (500'), +after which it becomes necessary for the character to seek +out a new dungeon in order to be able to descend further in +their quest to kill Morgoth. + +#####G2. Mirkwood +The Mirkwood forest contains levels 11 (550') to 33 (1650'), +and can be found to the north-east of Lothlorien. + +#####G3. Mordor +The Land of Mordor is a hot, cavernous region, containing +levels 34 (1700') to 66 (3300') of the dungeon. Located to +the East of Minas Anor, it is a place filled with danger, +and only a wary adventurer will make it through to the other +end of this dungeon. + +#####G4. Angband +Only the most successful of adventurers usually make it this +far. The Dungeon Angband contains both Sauron and Morgoth, +who will gladly wipe out any who dare to oppose them! This +dungeon covers levels 67 (3350') to 127 (6350'), but Sauron +waits for you at level 99, and Morgoth at level 100. This +dungeon can be found near Gondolin. + + +#####GAdditional ToME Dungeons +#####G------------------------ + +In addition to the basic 4 dungeons, there are numerous other +dungeons scattered around the world for an adventurer to explore +while preparing for the final fight. Many of the dungeons have a +guardian at the bottom of them, and a few have unique levels +somewhere within them (like an orc town) with guaranteed artifacts +and nasties within them. Other than the unique levels, all of the +dungeons can be exited and re-entered at your leisure. + +Be warned though that some dungeons are partly toxic to the +adventurer, and will damage you BY THEMSELVES just by you walking +within them! + +#####GOrc Cave +A dark tunnel leading to an Orc Cave, guarded at its base by Azog, +King of the Uruk-Hai.
