So most of time in long history worlds all of starting megabeasts tend to get killed off(unless they never get any kills in first place and never attack anyone or turn into zombies), but sometimes one of them becomes really notable. Like in 40.03 my first all medium settings world had only one of first megabeasts surviving, a dragon with almost hundred kills and 10 children with only one of them dead. That world went though age of myth and legend six times before ending on age of legend and he wasn't only megabeast who managed to get offspring, but he was only one of the starting ones.

So yeah, I'm wondering whats up with this. I mean, why do sometimes megabeast die in first hundred years never breeding and other times they survive to have a lot of fights and have a lot of offspring? Is it just matter of luck or do their location or skills matter?

And does anybody have similarly notable megabeasts that survive until end of world gen?

Ya know, for adventure mode. Managed to create a world where only goblins are alive(for some reason all megabeasts are alive. Well, sort of, I have a zombie dragon in legends with 88 named kills. How do historical megabeasts turn into zombies?) so that allows me to pick goblin adventurer in adventure mode... Heard same thing applies to kobolds, so yeah, how to create myself a world where everyone but kobolds have encountered tragic death?

So I created a world using advanced parameters, I don't think I changed them THIS radically ._. So I reclaimed world gen ruin and... Well... It goes down only to level 40, but for some reason when a miner's vision got to bottom floor the "horrifying scream" message appears long with twenty demons

How the heck that happened? ._. No clue, but somehow it seems that level 30 has magma holes on floor somehow

DF General Discussion / Are SPOILERS still in game?

So are demonic fortresses with adamantinum sword still in game? I tried to settle everywhere in one tile and I didn't see adamantinum sword in R so either they aren't as easy to find anymore or they don't anymore appear in building screen... So umm, what is easy way to find one if they are still in game?

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Et tu zombie?
« on: July 12, 2014, 03:08:46 pm »
So I made bad mistake of trying to invade tower with bow(yeah, not sure what I was thinking) and got killed and yadda yadda

But then I checked legends and apparently tower had three necromancers which all got killed by different zombie

So umm, did they get killed by each other's zombies or did Toady not yet fix necromancer-zombie allegiance bug? I thought that was fixed, but I guess not

DF General Discussion / Never should tempt my luck
« on: July 11, 2014, 08:38:10 am »
So I figured out that since new version is out, I could play the game without worrying about crashes, so I never saved this game until it just now crashed :P So I just lost 8 hours of game...

Errorlog says something about army commands and army camping forever but I dunno if that is just something random. Anyway, yeah, game is now much more stable than .01 version, but crashes can still happen so yeah :( Should have saved more often...

DF General Discussion / Does Age of Death crash the world generation?
« on: July 10, 2014, 08:13:19 am »
This happened twice to me, Age of Death came and world gen froze <_< Is this caused by something else and its just coincidence it happened upon reaching Age of Death or is this somehow tied to conditions that create Age of Death?

If name happens you remind you something, then you might have guessed that its fantasy(well kind of. Its set in same universe so its not really "magic") spin off of scifi 4x known as Endless Space. Its basically kinda like Master of Magic to Master of Orion I guess.

I was considering posting about this on Endless Space thread, but last post in that thread is over year ago <_<

Its sequel to obscure RTS that was successful at it time, but is forgotten now. Does anybody here know about Conquest: Frontier Wars or where fans for it could be found?

Basically, if you wanted faithful remake of XCOM in modern days instead of reimagining, this is for you.

BTW, has anyone ever seen goblin caravan?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Vampire crime drama!
« on: February 26, 2012, 06:33:06 am »
Ok, so I had one farmer guy convinced because I didn't remember to craft earrings for mayor and now hes dead from being sucked the blood. I never had farmer convicted for his "crime". Nobody have been accused of doing the deed yet, it would be cool if vampires would be able to pin crime on dwarfs who had grudge on victim without doing the "This guy is vampire!" sort of framing. Of course, that would probably require to dwarfs with grudges murder each other without being vampire xD

Also, 31 of witnesses claim the murderer to be Domas Nikkadol, Ranger who has wife and kid so he can't be the vampire... Dunno why everyone thinks he did it, but hey, gotta listen puplic opinion!
