Yup, one male, one female beak dog. Lessee...that means cats(grumble immigrants-at least no kittens are latching on), dogs, cattle, donkeys, horses, giant leopards, beak dogs.

Strangely, all the unpaired ones are males: dog, elk, fox, muskox, two-humped camel, grizzly bear...I suspect the gender-selection algorithm to be other than coin-flip. (Embark alternates for each creature-two are guaranteed breeders, I know)

Embark selection with greater viewpanels would be soooo much nicer though.
Worldpainter and worldgen/legends views are about the only things that aren't actually menus atm.

Perhaps when Toady gets around to fixing the "no inter-region-tile forts" artifact.

Honestly when the game gets to the point that things like this can happen, DF will kill the fantasy book genre. I mean who needs to buy a book when you can just generate one on your computer, different every time and always amazing
The book protagonists are going to succeed, though.

And, uh, General Voidler? I get the feeling he wasn't born a Voidler..;)

Great story though.

This story had flaming arrows, Everyone likes flaming arrows.

Actually, that's what sparring is in the current version, pulling blows. IF you're good at your weapon, you're more likely to not hurt your partner, iirc.

So, I was expecting the DM this wave. About 40 dwarfs showed up with said Dungeon Mistress.

Thankfully the Noble Four (ruler/consort/death/taxes) did not show up with. Clearly time to set up the Violet Housing Level.

nah. More in spirit with the present state of things would be checking itemsize vs creaturesize, shape, and rigidity. A spear would make more a toothpick than a crutch for a (super?)titan, after all, right?

Why not just have a "load" option that scans some directory for more interface files?

You could certainly download more from the wiki, but I'd like to make the game as self-contained as possible, and something as universally needed as a laptop interface.txt ought to be bundled with the game.
Say, now that you ha'e it set so you can multibind, why ot just change the interface init so it'll work with either by default?
