I made it to the end, I don't know why you need different parties. Or why do you need so much magic users. Have you ever considered taking a horse with you into Exodus' castle? You only have to fight dragons two times then, instead of four times. It seems you all have many problems playing Ultima III, but it is such an easy and uncomplicated game... Later, every party member is as powerful as the other. Every character has his maximum stats... Why do you all have problems? I don't know...
