Ok, I finally broke down and played Death Test 1 using Melee rules for the 
first time in decades.

I used four 36-point characters and a version of the Secret Simple Super 
Strategy ;-) my dad and I came up with to defeat the Death Test trilogy when 
I was about 12 or 13 years old.

The strategy still works well, though my TFT expertise and tactics were 
slightly rusty. However we were betrayed by luck early on, doing weak 
damage, breaking an important weapon, and suffering a major wound in the 
bear room, putting one member at -3DX. The next serious battle was also a 
_very_ near thing, the injured character was killed, then another was 
wounded near to dying, but then we had a little luck and the battle turned. 
We found a magic healing potion after that battle and I did some 
re-equipping with looted equipment and switched tactics a bit to adjust for 
the new group. We then destroyed the next two rooms taking only two 1-point 
hits, and made it out with 19 gold bars and 5 jewels, scoring 390 / 4.

Very gratifying and fun!

I'm glad I didn't get wiped out, or I might compulsively try again. I might 
anyway since I have an idea for a different tactic that I've never tried.
