Title: Other race civilizations? (Personal quest of boredom, a retarded tale)
Post by: Lioneez on October 28, 2019, 04:07:03 am

Well, its not much of a question but I been experimenting with adventure mode recently as soon as we got the claim site option, here is what I am trying to do:
I am trying to generate a world with more animal people that I will recruit and start a village with.

but I ran into a few problems:
1)When I take my group to start a village I dont have access to stone which is a real bummer but that was already addressed
2)When we settle we are being registered as the group me the main leader originated from which is also a bummer
3)After time we dont really get recognized as a village or able to break ties with our origin civilization since we are registered as a "Camp" with no way to advance.
4)If you happen to spawn another adventurer to visit your place and you retire there you will be teleport back to the city you came from, which is annoying

these are only a select few and I hope some of you might try this so maybe we will get a clear picture of how it works fully and maybe even post a few of our hopes in that regard in adventure mode.

P.S: generating a world with a good number of demi humans is hard, also about stone, you can buy it from dwarfs I noticed but that takes time.

Well this is an update:

3 months in game time till 9th Hematite year 100:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Well I was goofing around most of the time, trying to get gold and influence from local human civilizations.
during that time me and a human bowman went to raid a Kobold civ hoping we can find some stolen stuff and return it into the economy,
I did my fair share of Kobold cave raids so I kinda know my way around them and where the traps are laid, so needless to say it was a one sided massacre, also needless to say my companion died which forced me to go close to the ocean to avoid the boogyman until I reach town, and there was no treasure, bummer.
meanwhile I already wrote down all the places wolf men resign in,
In the Hamlet there is a Wolf men farmer(oddly enough since they only eat meat), he refused
Next one is a necromancer in a tower that does not have a lot of undead there, basically what I did is I went stomping in the entrance to draw their attention and jummped to the woods where the necromancer hopefully wont run.
my spear dwarf and a human bowman didnt really help and died so I had to fight them and drag all the dead bodies behind trees away from the tower, it was painful not gonna lie.
when I finally enter the tower I realize the wolf man necromancer has died, how? IDK, but apparently he was at the entrance at the wrong time and either my party killed him or the undead trampled over him.
so now... painfully after learning the secrets of life an death.. my next place to visit to recruit wolf men is the goblin capital...there are 2 wolf men there so hopefully I will be able to recruit them and start my experiment.

Ah also my adventurer may be a demigod but he has only above average stats minus empathy as for combat skills well he is an adept shield and armor and expert swords man and bowman(I used a bow to farm early meat as I was broke), rest of the stats are into carpentry,reading and writing and dodging.

this probably wont work and I will have to start anew with another world that hopefully has animal military men.
