DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Water supply
« on: January 12, 2009, 12:44:14 pm »
I second the comment about not letting water fall Z-levels. I flooded half a map doing that with a brook, when I left a door out of my miner's escape tunnels.

I'm pretty sure it'd just cave in and sink.

Fill the chasm in; build a floor right the way across it every few levels.

Atrifacts are generally done by the most valuable; my last fort was scattered with images of an aluminium battle axe.
And dwarves labouring, surrounded by dwarves, travelling, and so forth.
Then camels, cougars, and goblins killing dwarves.
And dwarves killing goblins and kobolds.
And goblins and kobolds being killed by dogs.
And a few of falling dogs. 'The dog is falling.'

DF Suggestions / Re: Naval Options

Dwarves don't do boats. Dwarves drain the body of water and walk along the bottom.
Or build over the top.
Or make a tunnel.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Mosaics
« on: January 10, 2009, 05:40:57 pm »Now I want to create a Mega Man mosaic somewhere in my fortress. Unfortunately, I have nothing blue, much less enough blue rock to build a mosaic. Fight, Mega Man! For everlasting profits!
Order pretty coloured rocks from the dwarven traders!

Velociraptors?
You must post how it was done! I want my dwarves to dine on *velociraptor roast*!
(Made with the finest minced velociraptor meat, velociraptor tallow, cat meat, cat tallow, and one-humped camel tallow.)
(Fucking camels savaging dwarves... Be easier if they'd just kill 'em, then I wouldn't have to send MORE people to retrieve the wounded and give them water slowly for years, and defend the ones who refuse to be helped...)

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Flooding the world with magma
« on: January 10, 2009, 12:57:22 am »
Use pump-stacking to put it in an above-ground resevoir from a magma pipe. Then, when you're ready, open the floodgates/hatch covers/whatever and fuck the world.
You need to practically block out the sun for it to work, though.
But the sun is evil and deserves it.

Sheets?
Matresses?
A dwarf needs not these things! For dwarves, wood is soft enough.

Start ordering all sorts of fancy crap from traders. Mainly crap you can't be bothered to make/find yourself, like exotic metals, wood, and suchlike.

I think you'd just smack into the walls rather than aim.

« on: January 07, 2009, 11:59:55 pm »
I haven't wiped out an elfy caravan YET. But that's because one fort caught fire before the drowner got used, and another had an exterior depot.
Next fort I have that works, I will set up a pumped drowner from day one. Maybe with optional roasting facilities.

Oh, I did that, they just all charged to one corner of the walls and stayed there, until a few civvies got killed.
Including a LEGENDARY FUCKING BONECRAFTER.
Then half didn't respond, so I just crammed everyone indoors and let the traps and the dogs sort it out.
