lye bearing items must be made with some random ash type of ash
(you probably did so)
but the kicker here-lye goes in food stockpiles and may be designated for a haulling task.
It counts as a liquid

engravers will engrave about thier own preferences/experiances/fears when they do so
everyone killed at your fort counts

they also make terrible trade items by weight
but are totally awesome weapons....
i would consider making obsidian just so i can have an army with masterpiece obsidian swords...

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Are carp really that deadly?
« on: August 12, 2008, 05:02:16 am »
the reason carp are so strong is that they auto-train to legendary+5 swimming and get super-dwarvenly strength from it

swimming innate does not give any swimming at all, but carp got it

he might be wielding an artifact and dwarves never put down artifact weapons/shields/armour that they wear

i think 39f re-enables seiges, and may make people more violent

i'm in, if you post the instructions
should gen it up,
it would be really nice to have 1 of: flux and iron, or adamantite, or some defining landmark(cave/town) so we have something to focus on


but most of all, a central somewhat isolated peak to be the mountainhome.

engraving is good, if you're going for "really" high attributes(otherwise its slower than mining and pumping)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
search for flux, magma pipe?? pool?(just one of em, not sure) other features, low savagery, medium temprature 7x7

not gonna tell where i hit the adamantine, but i will tell i didn't hit it dead center, or i woulda hit the pits

the map has iron on the mountain somewhere as well as silver veins that make me think of platinum(galena sucks)
no gold or platinum i can see, not that it really matters to adamantine hunters

« on: August 12, 2008, 12:21:47 am »
good lord, i dug a shaft straight down and hit raw adamantine right above the bottomless pit, in the spring of my first year!
I haven't even found the magma pipe yet
in retrospect, it probably wasn't a good idea to center my fortress on it

should i pursue the adamantine now? i searched hard for a setup with flux, iron and magma, and bauxite toting civ-should i continue my steel making?
should i kill my men and go crazy hermit in the depths?????
