Bay 12 Games Forum

I think the distance that some of the water has to travel may be the problem... other than that i dont know

Do it the Armok way and recruit you entire fort and send em in, some have to survive and if they survive the tantrums and serious injuries your fort is RICH!!

The Human eye can only detect the difference of FPS at around 35 FPS, so there should be no reason for running that high, you want your dwarfs to bolt across the screen like when you just start the fort, for that make a small fort, pop caps, magma, kill all animals on sight, magma.... ya that covers it.

Orc mod.

Yes, gen a new world.

That really doesn't answer my first question.

... and... this is the "Mode" forum, not the "Modding" forum...
Shoot.

This is the mode forum.... and the orc mod has to do with the Fort mode, the orcs siege the first winter so i would install it if you want early sieges.

FYI, Anything besides adventure mode is pretty much discussed in this forum because stories, mod and the like deal with fort mode.

Now you can make different sectioned cities, Slums, High class etc...

This will be good for many reasons, cant wait

Is he a wrestler, that would explain it all

I think if you give the gobbos the no fear tag they don't run away when you let them out of cages. Might have to do it before capturing them though as I'm not totally clear on how the "run away" behavior gets flagged.

Gobbo 1: TO BATTLE!!
5 gobbo deaths later
Gobbo 6: RUN THAT-A-WAY!!!

Thats usually the procedure, if the ambush or siege takes to much damage, RUN!

Background story:
This was just a fun little fort I wanted to make with the Orc mod I put in. First one I made failed cause I forgot Orcs avoid traps.....Ok i'll build an army this time I thought. I was in the process of starting a temple for Armok made of Pure Silver so the blood can flow and stain the silver forever cementing Armok in this area, well I didnt get that far before the orcs came. First group Lead by a Spearmaster came slowly for the entrance that was in a hallway, so I waited till they all entered the hallway and sprung my forces to glorydeath. They fought that wave to the bitter end even when i ordered a full retreat into the bowels of my fort to make a last stand, The Axedwarfs didnt make it. Then that severly hurt group kinda skittered off and the second came in, lead by a hammerlord, and he was blood thirsty, after seeing the glory his brothers got he wanted that, so he pressed the advantage, pushing inside the fortresses first underground hallway, I ordered the remaining dwarfs to run upstairs and fight for glory and death (mostly death). The orc forces got caught off guard when the majority of my forces tantrumed in the fighting and the semi crazy dwarfs fought with great fervor which was rewarded, the orcs ran leaving 7 dwarfs alive, only 1 able to walk let alone keep the others alive (this map has no water....)


Armok would be proud of that blood!!
