[QUOTE=Jrose14;42728642]Would you like to play Dwarf Fortress, Adventurer Mode, or eat some EVVVVVILLLLL FIGS?[/QUOTE]
yes i'll take my dwarfs with a side of FIGS
The camp fell apart. Too many zombies. I shoulda checked if there was a tower nearby.
Anyways, gunna restart and hope I find some cool land formations and get back to you guys. I'm so sorry ):

It's okay. Shit happens. But then you learn.
Unfortunately then [i]more[/i] shit happens. DF is kinda just a never ending cycle of shit happening and you learning how to avoid or manage it.
[QUOTE=Jrose14;42725789]I'm trying to dump corpses, by having my Garbage Dump right off the edge of the cliff, but no one will dump anything.[/QUOTE]
You can't have a garbage dump on an open tile. Instead what you can do is have something like a floor grate attached to a lever and put the dump on the grate.
Another way which is kind of odd but works even better imo is to use a floor hatch. The thing about floor hatches is that when you put a dump on top of it the dwarves will dump the item on either side, so just build a wall on the side you *don't* want them to dump on. If the only other place is open space, then they will just toss the dumped item over the edge.
Okay, embarked in a good biome this time (most of the map is a good biome). No towers, no super-dangerous neighbors other than orcs and gobbos.
And I'm right on the edge of an even bigger, deeper gorge-river. Time for another floating fort.

Oh, and another water fall leading off of the gorge. Already killed a gar and three carp.
[editline]2nd November 2013[/editline]
One kobold has already fallen into the river.
Ye shall be sorely missed.
[editline]2nd November 2013[/editline]
He has competent swimming skill, why the hell can't he get out of the river?

Build a ramp into the river or something?
And now you MUST build that thing that catches all those tasty tasty animals leaping off the waterfall!
what mirth, a feline pair

Current. I've watched cats fall down a waterfall I hadn't finished restricting with walls yet, and they had to swim to keep from getting launched off the map.
This guy is performing a 25 hour DF livestream, starting now. It's for the Extra Life charity, so I'll put him in here.

He posted it on reddit, and I know generic FP hates reddit, but let's dump that here too.

Update: Affected by power outage, he hopes it'll be fixed asap.

dwarf fortress?
for a good cause?
count me in.
edit: I have no idea how i missed that twitch link .
Oh god, the guy has accidentally put a dump zone over a cliff and realised they'd dropped rocks on the head of one of his masons several times.
Arms broken, ribs broken, ribs broken, shoulder broken, totally fucked.
Dorf just died.
10/10, hilarity already.

Badgers everywhere
Aww man, the stream is down for some reason. UPDATE: Currently affected by a powercut, should be fixed in an hour or so.
On the bright side, can I reccomend Spacefox as the second coming of Jollybastion? It's even nicer!

I believe he's wearing a Snuggie?
[QUOTE=Jrose14;42733789]There are ramps available, I dunno why he's just sitting there. I even set him to military and told him to go to shore, and he ignored me.
He's not even drowning. In fact, from the way it seems to be going, he'll die of thirst first.
[editline]2nd November 2013[/editline]
Oh wait there are no up ramps, just down ramps.
[editline]2nd November 2013[/editline]
Can't place them in water. Well, he's fucked.
At least I brought two proficient carpenters and woodcutters.[/QUOTE]
you can dig a ramp/staircase on a tile that won't get flooded, then channel the tile in-between

Kobolds can't dig.
oh yeah didn't realize it was kobold camp
that's what I get for not reading the entire conversation
Kolbolds cant dig? Ive come across two camps dug into hills, one went into the caverns. My compainons killed hundreds of them, started feeling bad.
Earlier in the thread someone stated you can dig with a shovel in dirt and etc, but you can not mine.
[QUOTE=nater;42737039]Earlier in the thread someone stated you can dig with a shovel in dirt and etc, but you can not mine.[/QUOTE]
It's been changed; shovels don't exist anymore, and you can dig with a pick, but you have to trade for or steal one first. This is a Masterwork variant, by the way.
[QUOTE=Nivoldoog;42736955]Kolbolds cant dig? Ive come across two camps dug into hills, one went into the caverns. My compainons killed hundreds of them, started feeling bad.[/QUOTE]
Thats random gen stuff. In the Masterwork Kobold Camps, you cannot dig until you find or steal a shovel. Or be hardcore and never dig at all.

the only interesting thing to ever happen in sungleaders
as an experiment I am going to try living as a peasent in adventure mode. Until I acquire some decent gear for said peasent's adventuring heart I will stay in a village all day complaining about how my charactor just died of dehydration.

Welp. Everything was going so smoothly.
Wait, children can get strange moods? Well damn, I never knew that.
[QUOTE=Jrose14;42743353]Wait, children can get strange moods? Well damn, I never knew that.[/QUOTE]
Yeah. Which kind of sucks, because on one hand you have another dwarf with boosted skills, but on the other hand they're a child, so you can't use them until they grow up.
I started an adventure mode playthrough just to see if I couldn't destroy all sentient life in the world with a zombie army (once I can actually become a necro.) This should be !!fun.
