Dwarf Fortress v13 - Orkel looses a roaring laughter, fell and terrible! - Games

Currently being seiged, and I need water because I m being spammed the fuck out about it. I could make a well on the surface above a murky pool, but goblins would fuck me over. I can dig to the pools but I don't know if that will release the water or what.

[QUOTE=Nitrowing;29565301]Adventure mode. This one lady has had me kill 5 Rocs in a row. I think she's trying to make me commit genocide here.[/QUOTE] If there's that many Rocs in the world, you're probably now the most awesome pest controller ever.

enjoy your murky water and infections

Infections are Fun. Oh and also mind the water pressure with the drawing i made, unless you want Fun from flooding(depending on the pool size).

It's the only source of water I have :saddowns: Anyway I dug to them, set them as water sources, and people are still bitching about no source of water. How can I move water from one level to another on the same Z level? Also my murky pools are underground, just one Z level bellow the surface.

Oh god there are so many goblins on the units screen I can't count them all. They all chopped a titan in half.

Isn't it like 20 per page? It's pretty easy to count them.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;29573447]Isn't it like 20 per page? It's pretty easy to count them.[/QUOTE] I was kinda trying to say there is a fuckton off them. Maybe 60-80? Now I can't get trees for charcoal and I doubt any caravan will even get remotely near my entrance. The only weapons and armor I can make so far is copper with the metal from which I am mining. [editline]2nd May 2011[/editline] I am half thinking to dig to the magma sea, build a pump stack up to the front of my fortress, lure in the majority of them to the front with some useless dwarves in copper armor, and then dump magma on them.

I lost all my saves when i got my new computer :saddowns: oh well, might build that sea dome now. setting it up is going to suck.

For some reason my forts always turn out boring. I have an above ground fortress with no traps or anything. And my only attacks were 2 ambush squads. Still no seiege at 150 pop.

Well I've been meaning to get into this for ages, so I might as well try now, wish me luck (Expect lots of questions im afraid) *edit* It appears this is my page, and you are my dwarfs! Dig my minions!

Kiwi Bird, poster, has started a party at ashen table

[QUOTE=Kiwi Bird;29581220]Kiwi Bird, poster, has started a party at ashen table[/QUOTE] too bad no one will show up as there is a mega-beast attack right now.

Just got into this game. I must say it is an amazing game with tons of possibilities. I've dropped at least 20 hours in the last week ever since I learned how to play it =D Also if anyone is interested in learning how to play, you should youtube 51ppycup's LP videos. They are VERY helpful albeit a bit boring at times but he teaches you all the basics and some advance stuff.

So about 20 elves just ambushed me in my second fortress year, ran up to my fort, shot arrows EVERYWHERE, killed two dogs and hit no dwarves, and left. What the hell happened? I have had no dealings with the elves at all.

I wish minecraft was this cool

Right, note to other people getting into DF, don't try to start learning past midnight, it doesn't work...time to look at those youtube videos someone mentioned

FUCK YES. CURSES. [quote=Devlog]The first step is to add "curses", which might be based on or a subset of the current syndrome system used for poisons, and to use these to replace the skeleton and zombie flags. Even though most or even all of the curses will be randomly created during world generation, there should still be raws for them that support everything that's going on for modders as well. The old skeleton and zombie flags should be able to be legacy'd in for old saves. Once the framework is done, we'll start adding new sorts of night creatures.[/quote] Zombie viruses and all kinds of other things will now be possible!

Elven curse, lose beard, love nature.

Goblin curse, Kleptomania, poor situational awareness.

Kobold curse, paranoid, everyone attacks you on sight.

ok ok we get it.

And the curses will be procedurally generated so they'll rarely be the same in different worlds. I can only hope there's a lot of different curse aspects to "choose" from.

[QUOTE=Orkel;29589922]FUCK YES. CURSES. *devlog* Zombie viruses and all kinds of other things will now be possible![/QUOTE] that's pretty neat. world gen zombie apocalypse, here I come!

Oh my...I love Toady.

Almost on my second year and I've already lost 5 to badger boars and 3 to tantrum/insanity.

what keys to move up/down pages in adventure mode? Mayday's texture pack changes the icons to a stick and a rock :v: [editline]3rd May 2011[/editline] Any way to give stuff to followers? [editline]3rd May 2011[/editline] I decided that, from the people currently watching the thread, Effed will be my first companion. The gem cutter. [editline]3rd May 2011[/editline] Guardb and Effed have joined me. [editline]3rd May 2011[/editline] I smacked some dude's head in with a stone :v:
