Masterwork DF / Slightly frustrated - Choosing Race on Embark

« on: April 03, 2015, 11:40:08 am »

I'm new to masterwork. I got into dwarf fortress while it was far underway and it's taking me a while to catch up to all you Dwarven Nobles. Right now I'm taking advantage of the new Masterwork. When I'm choosing my civilization I want to know which race I'm starting with. I noticed the tiles change as I scroll through them but other than making assumptions by reading the names it's usually a shot in the dark. Is there a better way to choose race?

thanks,
crustie

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / preparations

« on: December 31, 2014, 02:28:38 pm »

What are your favorite preparations. I'm never sure what first skills I should give my dwarves. They all end up learning something new. Also, I tend to keep the items I leave with at a minimum. Only what I need then I just build everything else there. 4 hens and a rooster, dogs, cats. That's about it. Are there any specialized set ups?

thanks.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Efficiency

« on: December 29, 2014, 03:27:05 pm »

Hello,

I'm still fairly new to this game. I have a habit of trying out new things so I'm constantly leaving fortresses to ruin just to start a new one to try something different. Right now I'm looking for the most efficient way to run and manage workshops and stockpiles. Right now I have a stockpile level above my work shops then below that I have living quarters hospital and dining room then below that I repeat and mine veins.

If anyone has a some efficiency tips they would be greatly appreciated. Layouts and screenshots would be cool too.

Thanks,

XAN

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Labor Managment

« on: December 04, 2014, 01:44:56 pm »

Hello,

I'm new here and to the game.

One of my biggest peeves is with the labor management. I used a hack with the older version which had a good way to keep track and assign labors but since then I've upgraded to the newer version which I'm liking a lot.

I guess this might have been answered elsewhere. I'm just wondering if there has been a feature designed for the new version.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about. The hack had tons of cool features like the ability to speed up your dwarfs to lightning speed. I only used it because of the labor manager (u-l). Just thought maybe there was an updated version.

Thanks,

Alex
