Module:
Home Town
Simulates a version of the Diablo I and II games, with the emphasis mainly on duplicating the "feel" of the game.
The server is intended for party play, but can be played solo if you're patient enough to put up with dying frequently. You respawn back in town when you die.
Server:
The Viking Northeast AU server replaces the original Viking Northeast server, because the low numbers of players meant that it was no longer worthwhile for Chris to keep paying for electricity to keep the main server running.
The server requires the expansions and allows levels up to 40.
Some areas intended for epic level characters cannot be entered unless you are level 21 or higher, as some of these areas use models and placeables only available with the expansions installed.

(OFFLINE)Main server IP: 96.245.112.53:5121
Server IP: 202.142.133.188:5122
(Used to be)203.129.30.74:5122
The default port (5121) currently goes nowhere.
Update 2013-11-14:
Chris has taken the main server offline because of lack of interest. I will keep the backup server going for the foreseeable future.
Update 2015-01-02:
The backup server has been renamed as the replacement server and now requires both expansions to play, although it does not require any HAK packs.
Update 2018-04-11:
Changes to allow me to use the National Broadband Network (NBN) in Australia mean that the IP address has had to change too. See above for the new address.
The server requires you to have both expansions installed. You can purchase Diamond Edition which has both expansions through Good Old Games (gog.com)
The Enhanced Edition from Beamdog should also be able to direct connect to the server.
Note that Chris has now opened a new server, informally known as the Nightmare Server, based on this module. It is only available under the Enhanced Edition.
