DF Suggestions / Forgotten Beasts - alternative delivery to forts
« on: November 03, 2016, 09:37:39 am »
I just had an idea, while watching my miners opening new shafts on their quest for emeralds on the current mine level: what if Forgotten Beasts, in addition to arriving through the caverns, were occasionally unearthed while mining? Like the HFS, but in normal, although deep, rock. They could be "trapped" in small air pockets inside the rocks, maybe through a past cataclysm. Maybe a way to implement this would be to make the game change every 1000th (or whatever) large gem cluster into a little cave with a FB trapped within. Maybe some of the caverns have inscriptions, or runes, or sigils, indicating that the beast was trapped by an intelligent race...
Other parameters could be set so that the cave is at a minimum (or maximum) depth, or between the 1st and 2nd cavern, or whatever else.
