There is no difference to the ending wether you kill Xanathar in the
trap or the other way, you do however get a rather good graphic
death scene of Xanathar if you push him into the trap.
When you complete EOB1, it doesn't even create another savegame wich you
can transfer to EOB2.  If you ask me, Xanathar is the hardest 
end of game monster in the series.  Dran was almost a challenge, and
at the end of EOB3 I killed the baddie with a finger of death.
EOB3 may be bigger, but it is also slower and I had a problem with
installing it with the program, and had to do everything from DOS
with a LOT of tinkering around with the file positions before finding
that the data files 1-4 go into \myth (or whatever), data5 went into
savegame directory and data6 went into chargen.
EOB3 was not worth the 40 pounds.
