There are some larger animal people. The Hyena men are 65000 and even Capybara man is ~59000 .. Can you play as an Orca man? They grow up to be 2500000

Thank you so much, Toady. Awesome update. Totally love this game. The vanilla graphics remind me of my days playing the old Star Trek text game on my dad's 8088, a very good feeling :). I was playing adventurer mode all night but will start trying Fortress out this evening. I can't wait to see where you continue to take this game. You are the man.

I just retired a fort I had been working on specifically for adventure mode... Had couple dozen legendary warriors in full adamantine gear. I was planning on using them to try and take the war back to the Goblins but can't get any of them to join me, lol. They are,  "It is I that would lead you, but I have no need of your protection".

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Military- Patrol routes issues
« on: March 30, 2013, 03:31:29 am »
Hmm. I use patrol routes all the time for keeping caves safe. Just have 2 or or 3 squads on the patrol route at the same time and they should be able to deal with most dangerous wild life before you even realize its there.. Remember that if they kill enough animals they can make them extinct :(.

Greetings to everyone (except those stupid elves)! I'm from Argentina so sorry for my bad english.

I started playing DF yesterday, by following the "The Complete and Utter Newby Tutorial for Dwarf Fortress" guide. Against all odds, the game seems really interesting (not fun cause i didn't loose yet) to me, and I have a question.
Using a tileset is considered somehow "too softcore"? There is some kind of motto like "Real men play with ASCII, tilesets are for noobs", "Chuck Norris uses ASCII... and Comic Sans font. In italic" or something like that?

Yeah, tilesets are for girls.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Why does everyone use the default graphics?
« on: February 16, 2013, 05:34:48 am »
Every screenshot or video I see on these forums use it. I can't stand it, the newer graphics pack is so awesome grass is green, dirt is brown you can see what things are, everything is not weird symbols.

But in the end I don't care what you use, use what you like. I'm just curious, seems like using a horse and buggy when there is a shiny sports car.

(Unless it is some hipster thing, then.....you are grounded)

I like the standard graphics because they remind me of the games I used to play... What is wrong with a horse and buggy?

Thank you for the replies. Do your old migrants bring armor they were wearing with them to new settlements?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Do immigrants bring pets from previous fort
« on: February 15, 2013, 03:51:47 pm »
Just a simple question. If you abandon a fort, will the immigrants who come to your new one bring their pets from the old? Been looking everywhere for info on this but could not find any.
