as typos.

Ver. 1.2 - 10/03/06 - Now with prettier looking ASCII Art and humurous credits.

-------------------------------------------------
Whats in the file and why did I write this guide?

Well let me start off by saying this is the only Ys game I have ever played.
I'm not really a fan of the series but I think this one made an awesome game
for the Sega Genesis. Also, there are no guides whatsoever that has dead on
accurate data regarding the GENESIS version of this game. The other files
are from the SNES version of the game which is slightly different. Its the
same exact game but the items/levels/enemy data is different on this version.
Hell, this version is the hardest from what I've heard. I have no idea what
the Turbo CD version is like but thats not our concern right now; its our SEGA
game we're looking at here.

So what I have here for you guys today are full mapped out lists of all items
(including key items), weapons, shields, rings and armors. Also, I decided
to toss in a sorta bestiary that only focuses on EXP and GOLD counts. And
finally, an EXP/STAT chart of Adol's levels.

So without further ado, the guide begins.
