I've realized that anything I write in the aftermath of an all nighter is probably not ... as good as it could be otherwise, but I'm stubborn and I'm going to respond to some posts anyway.
I've played all of these games, and I think the Dungeon Lords theme fits DF the most.
However, I must say that I would play any version of DF-based game Drinkwound can come up with. I could even code an online analogue in the future.
By this I mean, let the guy do whatever he wants. He probably has much more plans and ideas in his head and he planned it for a long time, so simple "change type of a game" is not an as easy task as it seems.
The last word, he's probably doing it because it's interesting for him. And it takes much more than a few words and links to change someone's interest 
.
P.S. I wanted to ask, did you find an artist for your game? Asking in the Fan Art thread may attract a few really great artists to your side. If you plan to work with multiple artists though, I would only recommend to work with those who can cooperate and find a similar style to avoid totally different themes and styles.
I wish I was doing this just because, and I've realized that its something that I'll need to truly create in full but this is actually a project for school. My exam in fact.
Either way, an electronic version of this would be pretty damn awesome, and the idea fills me with childlike whimsy, I shall need to discuss this further, preferably after the long, horrible slog that is the last bit of school is over and I've had some rest.
Art sounds good, but it honestly had not yet factored into the whole thing, and you now have me looking for any place that I could fit ANY art into this, because that sounds awesome and I know that there is some serious talent lurking about in here.
Thank you sir, I will take all that you have said into consideration.
At one point I thought about a DF board game, but because I like doing a lot of crazy projects at once I sort of forgot about it. This thread intrigues me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
So how would moods work with this game?
Also, the FUN cards need something a few cards of export mandate crimes. Fun for the whole fortress when the bins have been forbidden from trade.
Also also, can players target other players, hire mercenaries to attack them or so on?
If I had a newsletter I would certainty give you a link to where you could sign up.
Moods: You draw them from the FUN cards, you will need resources (determined randomly of course) or you may lose dorfs.
FUN will be had in many ways don't you worry. If only people continued to suggest FUN cards such as you have...
Players can not lay siege to other forts or any thing such as that, but are encouraged to laugh at those who draw sieges, ambushers, and other things from those wondrous piles of FUN.
Also: What sort of "Euro" games? I am intrigued.
Just imagine your game, but all the dwarves are topless.
... Hot damn, this is 8 times as awesome!
