>>11816892 (OP)If you really want to play it like many of us did back then. You go in blind. We pirated it, so no manuals, no reference cards, no map. You learn the land by just exploring it.
If you were lucky, maybe you got some textfiles along with the copy of the game. But usually no.
(Though I guess I must've gotten something with U4 & 5 so I could mix spells.)
