From Novice to Mage: A Journey Through the World of Sorcery

In the world of fantasy, sorcerers are characters who possess immense magical powers. They are often depicted as wise and mysterious individuals, who are able to harness the forces of magic to achieve their goals. Sorcerers of might and magic are particularly formidable beings, as they excel in both physical strength and magical abilities. Unlike other spellcasters, they are not limited to using their powers from a distance, but can also engage in combat using weapons and armor. This combination of brute force and arcane abilities makes them a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield. The main idea here is that sorcerers of might and magic are powerful individuals who possess both physical strength and magical abilities.

The Heroes Round Table

Hi. According to the walkthrough of MM7 on the castlegobs.nl website it's possible to get 4 scrolls each week from the library in the School of Sorcery. (It's called "Scroll Shop" in the walkthrough.) But when I play it the library only makes one scroll available each week (and to make things worse it makes me rejoin the library each time when membership is supposed to last for six months).

Am I doing something wrong or is there 2 different versions of the game?

I maintain nonetheless that yin-yang dualism can be overcome. With sufficient enlightenment we can give substance to any distinction: mind without body, north without south, pleasure without pain. Remember, enlightenment is a function of willpower, not of physical strength.

I trying this right now two times - for the first time I obtained 5 scrolls and a book, for the second time I obtained 2 scrolls and a book.
I suppose it is random - you can obtain up to 5 scrolls but you also can obtain 1 scroll. Just save (or use autosave) before enter into School of Sorcery and if you don't find enough scrolls, just reload (same like finding treasures in chest or bodies).
Be sure to hit all bookshelves several times - sometime they can have more then one item.

Thanks for trying it - it's good to get the experience of others.

In the walkthrough they always seem to get 4 scrolls every time.

For me, If I wait one week there will be only one item there.
If I wait (say) 3 weeks there will be 3 items.
. I think that's how it's working for me.

I also chose to ignore that library (even if the membership had lasted for six months) until I read the walkthrough and decided to try a "speed game" myself. Lloyd's Beacon scrolls are needed to achieve the best time.
However, I think it is still possible to finish the game in 4 months, 11 (or maybe 12) days with only 7 Lloyd's Beacon scrolls (assuming you have one sorcerer/wizard in your party) - it just means that you can only train up to level 12 or 13 instead of level 14 or 15.
