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

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;29089551]Sorry but the shaft doesn't go into the barracks, only to the splatterzone Oh, and anyone who is looking at me weird because of my legendary biters, they're really good. Seriously. [media]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/795329/Pictures/Dorf/LEGENDARY%20BITERS.PNG[/media][/QUOTE] I love how he seems to consider his sword only good for putting the foe out of their misery and having the biting as the primary means of attack :v: . Now if only you could give them artificial steel teeth..... :allears: [img_thumb]http://www.greencine.com/images/static/moonraker_jaws.jpg[/img_thumb].

[QUOTE=proch;29090638]How can I loose a roaring laughter, fall and terrible?[/QUOTE] I think it's when a dwarf enters a fell mood (either fell or that other mood that comes when they have lots of bad thoughts).

[QUOTE=acds;29092072]I think it's when a dwarf enters a fell mood (either fell or that other mood that comes when they have lots of bad thoughts).[/QUOTE] Yeah. that's what it is. And I just slaughtered the elf traders, so hopefully they'll retaliate so I may have fun. (4th year for some reason, with no sieges.) Though, one trader slipped by because I only thought there were 2, not 3.

Had 'fun' playing for 8 hours now in total killed 2 ambushes 1 forgoten beast, lots elfs then a goblin siege FUN-KO'd me

Slew my first titan, now I'm going after a hyrda. Good thing I have the titan's 1209 pound head to throw at it edit: ahahah, I threw her own vomit at her tearing up her nose on her third head

My doctor seems to forget his patients after he puts them in a traction bench, they just lie there for years until i deconstruct the bench and walk off like nothing ever happened.

It's actually pathetic watching the third Elvish caravan coming in after I butchered the previous two, ignorant in noticing the Elf bones surrounding the blood soaked depot.

In the hyrda's den, I found prepared livers. How does a hydra cook? edit: oh wait, it was a female hydra

[QUOTE=Kiwi Bird;29093516]In the hyrda's den, I found prepared livers. How does a hydra cook? edit: oh wait, it was a female hydra[/QUOTE] Prepared just means it was removed, I think.

More blood for the blood god? And hooyah. Animal Trainer got a mood. (he has skill in armorsmithing) Gonna have a legendary armorer now soon, in addition to my weaponsmith. Though it's a shame since I just finished mass-producing shields.

How the fuck does a dwarf dig [b]WITHOUT arms and legs[/b]?

[QUOTE=IAmAnooB;29094175]How the fuck does a dwarf dig [b]WITHOUT arms and legs[/b]?[/QUOTE] His teeth. Dwarves love using their teeth for everything.

[QUOTE=Kiwi Bird;29093516]In the hyrda's den, I found prepared livers. How does a hydra cook?[/QUOTE] I assume it stole it from a town it attacked in world gen. While browsing Legends mode some time(and many versions) ago, I noticed a giant who kept coming almost every year into this one town for like a decade or so and grabbing nothing but a handful of berries and leaving, never killing or hurting anybody :v: .

My military consists of three squads. 1 ranged, 1 elite, and 1 meatsquad. While the elites are mostly legendary warriors of godliness, the meatsquaders are the guys who run into battle, trip over their own feet, falling on their weapons, breaking every bone in their body like they were made out of rice paper. They are always my first choice for defensive duty.

So a bunch of goblin's stopped me on my way to go kill a titan, telling me to "h-halt in the name of x." They didn't attack me, and I ended up having a nice chat with one of them who asked me to kill a creature of the night, and I recruited an axeman (who I can still attack by walking into :what:). What exactly was the point of that?

Pots are my new favorite addition. It was so wasteful to have to make barrels from wood. Now I can just send my legendary stonecrafter to make a shitton of pots and I never have to worry about food storage again.

What exactly do stray animals eat? Mine always starve to death, because my dwarves don't find the right food for them.

woah wait. can stone pots from the craftshop be used in brewing? [editline]10th April 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=frznbxy;29096065]What exactly do stray animals eat?

Just make a large zone with i and set it to pasture or whatever, and assign animals to it. Make it large, if it's too small they'll eat all the food and then fight each other for being too close.

Time to spam pots until my dwarves collapse.

[QUOTE=Nitrowing;29096891]Time to spam pots until my dwarves collapse.[/QUOTE] pretty much

How do I play adventure mode? There isn't any option when you start Dwarf Fortress.

[QUOTE=GeneralFredrik;29097915]How do I play adventure mode? There isn't any option when you start Dwarf Fortress.[/QUOTE] You need a free world. A world without an ongoing fort.

[QUOTE=Orkel;29097926]You need a free world. A world without an ongoing fort.[/QUOTE] Thank you.

Wouldn't want to cause a paradox by having a powerful adventurer show up and wreck everything while you don't recall doing that.

[QUOTE=Nitrowing;29097961]Wouldn't want to cause a paradox by having a powerful adventurer show up and wreck everything while you don't recall doing that.[/QUOTE] Back in the day however, you could embark on a human town where you retired adventurers, giving you possibly dozens of legendary soldiers to guard your fortress right off the bat.

Now that sounds intriguing.

Don't see why you still can't do that. Do they just vanish or something after retiring?

[QUOTE=Xed;29098411]Don't see why you still can't do that. Do they just vanish or something after retiring?[/QUOTE] You can't embark on human villages in the newer versions. You can still encounter retired adventurers with another adventurer though, and can even have them join you as a companion.
