Bay 12 Games Forum

Welcome to the forums. I think you'll fit in perfectly.

Obviously, it's half hydra.

...How would that even work?

How did you even get ninja'd by that much?

On the contrary, the fell mood poison should be spawned by a otherwise harmless type of hfs. You think it's cool until only one survivor remains, making a dwarf leather bracelet.

Shoot, mafia. I could never get the hang of that.

If they can't be killed, I just practice telekinesis by lifting the cabinet over the group of people.

Spoiled for size:
Are you baking up some rolls for us? Because I'm very hungry for rolls.

Any hope of ever getting a mac version?

I see a few links on google promising a mac version, but they all drag me down to a nightmare world of redirection, broken links, missing servers, and lies. The given download on the wiki definitely isn't mac compatible.

You can mod in a ranged weapon called something like "axe container" that uses "throwing axes" and uses the thrower skill.

And Dwarf Fortress is Dwarf Fortress.  It's magic, aye, but what sorta magic?  If you're gonna have a world which can be interacted with on the scale of Dwarf Fortress, the program will need more info than "it's magic."  If you grind the horn up, does it still neutralize poison?  If so, how much ground unicorn horn is needed for the process to operate?  What counts as poison, anyhow?  Is alcohol on that list?  Do other parts of the unicorn's body (like meat, bones...) have similar purifying properties?  If you make a scalpel from unicorn horn, have you just invented a self-sterilizing scalpel? Can Dwarvern Science make use of industrial-sized herds of unicorns, farmed like we farm cows, or do the unicorns have to be roaming free within the sacred forests in order for them to do their magic?  Can unicorns even breed in captivity, or will chained unicorns wither away and die in sadness unless given the love and respect they feel they deserve?  Is it worth playing the part of a peace-loving hippie to start a unicorn breeding program, and simply make sure none of them realize what happens to their brethren taken into the mountain?

Dwarvern Science is not satisfied until it has the answers to every possible scenario, preferably obtained in the most amoral and appalling manner possible.  With magma, ideally.

This is why I love Dwarf Fortress. I'm sorely tempted to make it my background.

So... If they can be amazed that much by magic poo, it would be awesome to make them poop it out, so they would play with admire their own poo. I will now go use brain bleach.
