[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;20835519]I'm actually quite disappointed about that, I really enjoyed getting Gods Amongst Dwarves who would strike fear into the hearts of even Spirits of Fire.[/QUOTE] Yeah but it also became a problem later on, when nothing can beat them. A good example being my fort Lightblockade where the super-champions kept slaying sieges of insanely modded and buffed orcs. I tried to make the fort fail, they just wouldn't die now matter how deadly I made the orcs! Removes the "fun".

[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;20835649]That's what anti-plot armor arrows of doom are for.[/QUOTE] Arrows aren't fun, they're just "hey no matter how much and how good armor you wear we'll pierce every vital internal organ of yours instantly [i]even if we're made of wood[/i]"
Ooooh, so he'll sort-of be like the "commander" units you get in some RTS games? Cool.

[QUOTE=Orkel;20835836]The new version's champion gives me the impression of the guy everybody admires, the center of attention in every party, the pimp who gets all the ladies and is the alpha male.[/QUOTE] So, will it be that we'll be limited arbitrarily to only one dwarf who has champion levels of power, or all dwarves will have the same upper limit to their power but the first to reach it gets the title of champion?
The champion is appointed by one of your nobles. I think the Baron/Baroness. You can also choose not to have one, like the sheriff in the current ver. [editline]07:39PM[/editline] [POSITION:CHAMPION] [NAME:champion:champions] [SITE] [NUMBER:1] [RESPONSIBILITY:BUILD_MORALE] [APPOINTED_BY:DUKE] [APPOINTED_BY:COUNT] [APPOINTED_BY:BARON] [PRECEDENCE:65] [MENIAL_WORK_EXEMPTION] [PUNISHMENT_EXEMPTION] [DO_NOT_CULL] [COLOR:7:0:1] [ACCOUNT_EXEMPT] [DUTY_BOUND] [DEMAND_MAX:1] Can be appointed by three different nobles.
So Champion is now a title, not a description of the owner's power-level?
[QUOTE=TBot_Alpha;20836001]So Champion is now a title, not a description of the owner's power-level?[/QUOTE] Yes.
Oh, okay. So the rise and fall of the mountain-homes will no longer be decided by the hands of champions, but by the blood and sweat of soldiers. Damn, now I [i]really[/i] want the new version to come out. :saddowns:
Gah, I really want to play Dwarf Fortress, its hard to stop myself playing before the new version is out :frown: I need some free game to entertain me
[QUOTE=Fergeh;20836443]Gah, I really want to play Dwarf Fortress, its hard to stop myself playing before the new version is out :frown: I need some free game to entertain me[/QUOTE] Prospector is a roguelike, and a good timewaster. Try it.
Minecraft's survival mode is kinda similar to a first-person Dwarf Fortress, too.
[QUOTE=Orkel;20836466]Prospector is a roguelike, and a good timewaster. Try it.[/QUOTE] Ok I'm trying Prospector, DF is pretty much the limits of my intelligence, this doesn't get much harder than that does it?
[QUOTE=Fergeh;20836617]Ok I'm trying Prospector, DF is pretty much the limits of my intelligence, this doesn't get much harder than that does it?[/QUOTE] Nah, it's just a quick space exploration game where you die easily. Remember to buy as much security crew from stations as you can.

POWDER a simple coffeebreak-roguelike, it's is very simple and very addicting, i'd say that it's Peggle of the roguelikes. I prefer ADOM or Incursion thou.
My dwarves don't want to wear normal copper armor either, what's going on :(
A goblin ambush killed a bunch of idiots who went outside and now I'm engraving the dining room to attempt to keep my fort from collapsing in a tantrum spiral. My dwarves keep going insane :( Is there any way to get Stonesense to work with 40d18?
If I alter the raws to add a few prefstrings for creatures, do I have to do a regen? Or will they just be incorporated into the likes of future dwarves?
The wait is killing me! :bang:

After that it should start right away.
fuck, I have 6 dwarves and my Queen arrived. god damn. adamantine if you were a person I would kill you. At least I have cheats.

[QUOTE=atomicthumbs;20843223][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/VTQbp.png[/IMG] what the fuck[/QUOTE] Dwarves really like their masterful meals.
What the hell. Every time I go to set something to one of my prison rooms, a bunch of my demons end up crowding inside the room and refuse to leave. Is there any way to fix this. I have like 10 guys crowding a 3x3 room. :raise:
[QUOTE=TBot_Alpha;20836001]So Champion is now a title, not a description of the owner's power-level?[/QUOTE] No, but we could make it this to do that: [POSITION:CHAMPION] [NAME:champion:champions] [SITE] [NUMBER:1] [RESPONSIBILITY:BUILD_MORALE] [APPOINTED_BY:DUKE] [APPOINTED_BY:COUNT] [APPOINTED_BY:BARON] [APPOINTED_BY:VEGETA] [PRECEDENCE:65] [MENIAL_WORK_EXEMPTION] [PUNISHMENT_EXEMPTION] [DO_NOT_CULL] [COLOR:7:0:1] [ACCOUNT_EXEMPT] [DUTY_BOUND] [DEMAND_MAX:1]
I feel that my bet will win! Also known as a poorly disguised bump
Will my engraver engrave scary stuff if I put him in the Dwarven Atom Smasher chamber?
[QUOTE=NotMeh;20847967]Will my engraver engrave scary stuff if I put him in the Dwarven Atom Smasher chamber?[/QUOTE] If you consider embedding bone fragments in to the floor engraving. :v:
