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

I liked your other avatar Orkel. It was cool. :smith: [editline]31st March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=filipegroh;28920212]So, goblin ambush, they kill almost every dwarf in the fortress, while everyone is miserable and going beserk, one of my dwarfs is ecstatic (996).[/QUOTE] SOme people just wanna see the world burn.

Ok, I think I managed to get thirst under control. This doesn't change the fact that my miner is dead. I made him a tomb.

[QUOTE=Teh Soviet;28920399]FUCK I realized I'm out of drinks, and my dwarves are dying! I named my dwarves after my irl friends, and my best friend just died of thirst while mining my new workshop area, how do I get drinks fast? [editline]31st March 2011[/editline] Crap, he also turned out to be my only miner.[/QUOTE] Just make some useless guy a miner. And pump of plump helmets and make booze like there's no tomorrow Which there probably wont if you dont

Holy shit, my third migrant wave brought like, twice as many people as there currently were in the fortress 0_o

dfstories.com already exists, so what should I call this? It's just gonna be a separate directory on my main site.

DF Legends. We should keep the history of people's games inscribed into the living rock itself.

Are dragons broken or something? Because this dragon I've been testing in the arena is massacring everything...

[QUOTE=Nitrowing;28922586]DF Legends. We should keep the history of people's games inscribed into the living rock itself.[/QUOTE] That. [QUOTE=DTkach;28922616]Are dragons broken or something? Because this dragon I've been testing in the arena is massacring everything...[/QUOTE] I'm not broken.

This dragon killed 3 T-rexs, 2 Spinos, an elephant and a bronze colossus without a scratch. I took control of a steel-armed dwarf and dueled the thing, ending with multiple strikes to its legs, causing it to fall over. After it did, it made one last attack, which missed, and I backed away from it. Then it gave into the pain. I walked back over to it and killed it with a single blow to the head. So ends the ninja dragon.

fuuuuuuck this looks like a huge problem [img]http://i51.tinypic.com/qn4hue.png[/img] Wish me luck. [editline]31st March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Seiteki;28922673]I'm not broken.[/QUOTE] Uh he said dragons not dargons

I have no meat or fish and ~30 plants, as well as ~50 booze. These dwarves are thriving I tell you.

The mental image of a quadruped made out of pewter (or any metal in general) is pretty cool. Why didn't Toady add in a subterranean race of giant insects with chitin as tough as iron?

Ok. This is how you get shit done. [img]http://i53.tinypic.com/10rtywx.png[/img] I think my militia commander is secretly Wolverine. I guess the bronze gauntlets did the job? btw, total body count: 6, I think

That was... Oddly easy for something made out of metal.

Aw. I keep getting stupid megabeasts. My first forgotten beast was made of water, and a potter punched it in half. Just now a hill titan (a six legged quadruped somehow) made of snow showed up. An axedwarf hit it in the stomach with the pommel of her axe and the titan fell apart. Hell, my six dwarf army beat back sixteen goblin bowmen without a single injury. I need something fun to fight!

[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;28923134]That was... Oddly easy for something made out of metal.[/QUOTE] A bunch of the military was attacking him with silver maces and hammers, but oddly enough, the spear and axedwarves were doing a better job against him. They were the ones who would actually make fractures and chips, whereas the blunt weapon users just made dents. They chopped off three of the titan's feet before killing him though, which I thought was funny.

Can anybody whip up a simple header image? Just 700x~200 would be good. While the height can very, I'd prefer that the width didn't.

What the hell!? "An ambush! Curse all friends of nature!" And like 15 fucking armed elves show up at my entrance... I have a militia of nine men, and they all have fucking wooden swords and shit.

This is exactly why it always bodes well to construct a failsafe mechanism- much like the one Boatmurdered had. And a strong front door.

Damnit, damnit, damnit. My men are falling like dominoes! One of my horses turned on me and kicked the animal trainer in the face! [editline]1st April 2011[/editline] I quickly conscripted my entire fortress and sent them all on a massive death charge...

Find a room, barricade yourselves in, hope to Christ they don't make it in. They were pissed at you for messing with their trees, weren't they? Fucking hippies.

I thought elves used nothing but wooden weapons.

My god.... Atir the cat took TWELVE arrows, 8 of them in the front left leg, which completely shattered. It also got an arrow to the tooth. In the end it bled to death, but I think it might have been what saved me.... The leader whom I named after myself got shot in the balls and ran downstairs. Half of my dwarves were drunk at a party while this happened.

It took days to clean up my meeting hall once that passed over, because everyone kept walking in it and tracking it all around the fortress. :saddowns:

A big chunk of my military is really upset at their "long patrol duty." The wiki made it sound like I could prevent this by only requiring a portion of the squads to be training at once, but this doesn't seem to be helping. I have squads of 10 dwarves, but I have it set so that only 5 of them are training in any given month. The problem is that sometimes they switch out, and sometimes they don't. One month, only two dwarves swapped positions, and the rest kept training or being civilians. How do I make them use their heads? It's really their own fault if their patrol duty lasts too long.

My fortress is going a bit too well...no other metal but admantine. The 3 military dwarves i have are almost fully outfitted with the stuff, and I haven't seen any opposition. The only problem since the start has been a lava overflow in the magma forge area (which was remedied with water). Its...unnerving. [editline]1st April 2011[/editline] I also have about 15 dwarves on stone detailing duty. Useless skills? Stone detailing.
