You have candy swords or is that with normal weapons?

Moreover, your mayor just gained a legendary kill.
Add some witty title to his name. Diamond eater, Iunno. Is Gnomeria any decent?

[QUOTE=Paul McCartney;44232611] Is Gnomeria any decent?[/QUOTE] Yes, but it is a lacking on features currently, at least IMO.
I feel like we're almost going to feel like those games (Dwarves, Gnomeria, etc.) are lacking features because we'll always subconsciously compare them to Dwarf Fortress
[QUOTE=Paul McCartney;44232611]Add some witty title to his name. Diamond eater, Iunno. [/QUOTE] You can add titles manually?
[QUOTE=Liem;44235094]I feel like we're almost going to feel like those games (Dwarves, Gnomeria, etc.) are lacking features because we'll always subconsciously compare them to Dwarf Fortress[/QUOTE] We don't even need to do that, considering how often they're touted as 'dwarf fortress with a real ui that totally makes up for the lack of relative depth'
[quote=ToadyOne]Looks like succession is done. As a final test, instead of just writing about it, I went ahead added a debug button that makes absolutely everybody interesting or otherwise individually tracked keel over. Only abstracted populations remained alive. The world was very quiet for a while, with no patrols or creatures moving around, because they were either dead or the person that would give the orders was dead, but by mid-morning they had reestablished leadership structures and I got to watch several people journey from site to site to place themselves in their new seats of power. We can add some extra confusion later, but I'm happy for this time that it works at all. There are some more conversation responses there as well, and so on.[/quote] Yay! [editline]15th March 2014[/editline] I just got a siege of goblins riding trolls the second after the human caravan arrived [editline]15th March 2014[/editline] Oops, they're riding Giant Olms, but they have trolls with them. They're also mostly marksgoblins and there's (literally) about 100 of them [editline]15th March 2014[/editline] The only metal on this entire map is adamantine so I guess I'm going with adamantine ballista heads [editline]15th March 2014[/editline] The Marksdwarf kicks the Goblin Pikeman in the lower right back teeth with her right foot and the severed part sails off in an arc!
Damn, was pretty close to hitting the 100 population mark and fucking goblins come and kill like 40 dwarfs.
[QUOTE=matt000024;44246065]Damn, was pretty close to hitting the 100 population mark and fucking goblins come and kill like 40 dwarfs.[/QUOTE] Thank god, once you pass the 100 mark then everyone gets lazy and you get like fifty dwarves in your dining hall. Thank them goblins
[QUOTE=Zombie_2371;44246367]Thank god, once you pass the 100 mark then everyone gets lazy and you get like fifty dwarves in your dining hall. Thank them goblins[/QUOTE] I need laborers for the massive dining hall I'm constructing though.
[QUOTE=Zombie_2371;44246367]Thank god, once you pass the 100 mark then everyone gets lazy and you get like fifty dwarves in your dining hall. Thank them goblins[/QUOTE] My fort currently has 94 children.. [editline]16th March 2014[/editline] Since my only available metal is adamantine I have 3 craftshops constantly having 3 poor peasants extracting strands on repeat :v: [editline]16th March 2014[/editline] "The Speardwarf grabs The Goblin Pikeman by the lower right back teeth from behind with his right lower leg! The Speardwarf stands up." Fucking A, WHAT? Is his whole ass and leg in his mouth? While he's upside down, somehow laying on the floor? [editline]16th March 2014[/editline] I have to post this whole thing I can't stop laughing, particularly now that I noticed a random Potter starts throwing up out of nowhere :v: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/6CIgRv3.png[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/TdSblmA.png[/IMG] new fort, first squad is a dickjoke and threat at the same time bright future for The Fortress of Squirting
In adventure I stumbled upon a dragon lair by accident. I've never fought a dragon before and had four recruits with me. I bravely charged forward, blocking fire along the way. My recruits were derping around behind me, probably burnt to a crisp. I made some stabs at his limbs and stuff and finally wounded it enough to knock it unconscious without a scratch to myself. So, now that is wasn't moving, I stabbed and sliced its head approximately 30 times. Didn't do anything, those dragon heads are tough. Then 2 of my recruits, who were apparently lost or something, come up behind me and a lasher steals the kill :(
I have flux, iron, and fuel, but the game won't let me make pig iron at the smelter I can smelt anything else that I have the ore of, but when I hit enter on pig iron it says I need fuel plz help, the fortress of squirting depends on it [editline]17th March 2014[/editline] oh nevermind I just used up all my flux making chairs priorities!
My forts name is Weaknesscrypts. :V I figured out that I could train the caged cave crocodiles and giant olms I captured from the last siege I had and that I have a great animal trainer, my army of defense creatures is rising fast..
Fortress names can be really silly, it is probably possible to have a fort named cowsquirts.
I feel like I should've known that shift+num 5 and control+num 5 go up and down z levels before now am I dumb or is this something nobody knows about
I never knew that. Have always used < and >. It is much more convenient.
I believe I've said it before but one time in Adventure Mode I ran across a Cave Dragon in a castle dungeon. Somehow I managed to knock it unconscious and I was there for all of a day bashing at it until it died from a source not my cause. Probably bleeding out.
The mayor of weaknesscrypts has a boner for buckets, constantly mandating the construction of them and the ban of their export
[quote="Toady One"]Site riling now includes little groups that try to track you down after the rumor has gotten around that you've done something bad. As part of finishing that up, I also handled some older promises I had written down regarding smell and low-light vision. The wind is involved, and creatures with a keen sense of smell, including elven adventurers, can detect creatures nearby in the proper windy direction. There's no blood-houndy types of scent trails yet (though there are the other kinds of trails). Animated corpses can be smelled even by humans if the wind is right, though there's a whole set of ambient smells that are not in the game yet and won't be this time. In terms of these finalizations I've been doing, there are six left. Doing a test run with a dwarven adventurer from depot to depot through a tunnel, the liaison commenting on the world situation in dwarf mode, that information screen I mentioned in the FotF thread not too long ago, the plant list, some checks with guards/intruder and some sort of nod to vampires/gods ruling civilizations (since it gets stranger and stranger for them to be there without any comment at all). Then we'll have a steaming pile of game that needs to be debugged and otherwise made playable.[/quote] Ughhh we're so close, I can't take it any more...
[QUOTE=Secone;44293149]Ughhh we're so close, I can't take it any more...[/QUOTE] Maybe he's waiting for the exact 2-year anniversary of DF2012.
When was DF2012 released?
Would that also happen to be the 4 year anniversary of DF2010 ? By any chance?
