Title: Stormbreaker --- Bloodline/Succession Game
Post by: Dr.Universe on January 01, 2009, 07:11:09 pm
So, yeah, this is my first post here (although I've been lurking for a while now) and, oddly enough, it's a request for a 5x5 bloodline/succession fortress... whatever you want to call it. There isn't much else to it other than that.

It'll be a pretty standard game, unless you'd like to do something similar to Ironhold, what with branching universe and what not. http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Bloodline:Ironhold (http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Bloodline:Ironhold)

After generating a few worlds, I've got a suitable site, though I lament the fact that it's in a calm area... we'd be lucky if Rhesus Macaques even showed up to bother us. There's always the damnable greyskins (Goblins ), though as they have a Fortress exactly one square above our own... as well as a few others in the area.


This is the site...
(http://i41.tinypic.com/xds0y.jpg)

Biome One - The Beaks of Creation - Mountain, Warm, No Trees or Vegetation, Calm with Limestone, Granite and Diorite
Biome Two - The Radiant Swamps - Freshwater Marsh, Warm, Woodland, Moderate Vegetation, Calm with Red Sand, Felsite, Marble and Granite
Biome Three - The Beaks of Creation - Mountain, Warm, No Trees or Vegetation, Calm with Felsite, Marble and Granite.
All three have a Brook running through them... "Rancorsoil"... literally Rancor Soil.



If you guys want to throw in any challenges we might as well do those too... I propose a giant glass tower...complete with a magma pump/fall system, but that's just me. Taking suggestions on what items/food/animals to take as well. Also, name of the group?

Build a massive mosaic on over a dozen z-levels.

And make it a comic, each z-level being a frame.

I like that idea, though I'm not much of an artist. </3... if anyone could do the layouts, that would be awesome. Of course, it would have to be a comic about dwarves... or even Boatmurdered.

If I had a script, I could probably do it myself.

Scripts are easy... I could write it honestly. And, I think each Z-level should be a page, or at least a few frames... depending on how compressed the images look.

That depends on how big we want to make it and how long the comic is.

Also, make a lever/liver pun.

Well, like I said, we can just do a script based off one of the elephant sieges of Boatmurdered, complete with Lever/liver puns and all. I like the idea, though Stormbreaker might not be the best name for it!... and while I wouldn't mind starting it now, I'd prefer to have more parties interested... you know?

Yah, there's more to do than just a mosaic I'm sure.

We'll wait.

Yeah, just hope more people enjoy it... if not, we can always do it ourselves.
