I have been playing different muds for 13 years now. I have run and operated muds, built, coded and enjoyed muds of all types for years.

I had thought I would never find a better mud than the one I have played for 12 years now. After playing Storm hunters I can happily say I have found a new better mud.

To start, their quest system is by far the best I have seen. No simple quest master that has objectives you can complete in a few seconds. These quests can take quite a while to complete. On top of this there are crusades that are always happening which require you to learn and explore the land.

The areas are all unique and interesting with ascii maps and all. The EQ and mobs are so well balanced that leveling is entertaining while challenging.

The remort system is also the best I have seen anywhere. With iirc 6 remorts with various forks, it makes all characters unique in play, skills and abilities.

As with all muds there are a few downsides. The boards system requires you to find the board (in the mud) to read/write to it which I have never liked. Also, because of some downtime the mud is not very active, but once more people find this place it will get packed, so join up and check it out!
