so, I would really like to use deons apocalypse mod. the only problem is, its a pain in the ass to install it on my mac. I did it once a long time ago, but for the life of me I cant remember what exactly to move and not to and etc.

could any bros with macs help me out?

so I found my first bit of admentine. how would I go about mining it? I think it would be pretty simple, except for the fact that is surrounded by lava, and water is on top of it.

any suggestions are more than welcome.

also I don't mind if I break into hell, this fort has been lucky for too long.

so I was walking from my island homeland to the mainland, because I ran out of quests.
me and my companion were walking over the frozen ocean, which was pretty nice since its faster than swimming.
suddenly a huge ass wall of ice appears out of nowhere, engulfing my companion and killing him.

wut

EDIT: I jumped in a crack I found with mist coming out of it. it said I died after slamming into an obstacle

EDIT AGAIN: I went back to my save, and kept going. it seems the ice wall is following me.

CHECK IT.

what if during a siege, you could switch too adventurer mode?

what I mean is, you are getting attacked by goblins. you move all of your soldiers into position. then, you will have the option to mouse over one of your grunts or higher ranking guys, whatever, and control him during the battle? am I the only one who has thought of this?

so, this is my first siege ever. I am being attacked by centaurs with swords and shields. my military might consists of a handful of traps at my entrance, a war wolf, and some dorfs with stone spears, their only combat experience is with tigers and some kobold thieves.

help would be appreciated!

I saw this in a thread a while ago, and I thought it deserved its own thread. please participate!

so I just started a new adventurer as a human outsider. I go to get a quest to kill some night creature. on the way, I discover a labyrinth. I have never heard of or seen one before. any dangers lurking in there? should I go get a bag and come back for potential loot? I only just went through the entrance, I would like some advice before I proceed!

so i have played adventure mode for quite some time. but one thing I never fully grasped was swimming. I assume that you just walk into the water, but that never really seems to work. what am i doing wrong? and if nothing how much points would I need to put into the swimming skill?
