Bay 12 Games Forum

I heard that magic existed in the early pre-release versions of the game, but were later removed. Does anyone know why Toady decided to remove it?

Is there a way to make a creature emit projectiles that aren’t just minuscule rocks?

Unfortunately, aluminum is pretty terrible as an armor material. I don’t think artifact armor gives that big of a bonus compared to masterwork armor, so you aren’t really missing that much. You could probably put it on display in a noble’s room or a guildhall to easily increase room value. That’s really the only thing that artifacts are good for anyway, apart from artifact doors, floodgates and mechanisms.

I try to equip my military with bone armor but it is nowhere to be seen in the material list. Is it there or does it not exist in the steam version.

Bay12 really needs to fix the more "game breaking" bugs.

From what I've seen, areas around a volcano will usually lack a sedimentary layer a skip right to the other layers. That means that you're sacrificing abundance of coal, iron and flux for easy magma forges and more gold/silver. Platinum is also harder to get.

I think we’ll have to wait until the moving fortresses update for new siege engines. The current ones are just remnants from 2D Df.
