DF Suggestions / war mode
« on: January 13, 2010, 09:39:03 pm »
soory if this has been said before but
In addition to fortress mode and adventure mode how about a war mode?
This is how it could work. You choose an existing fortress that you had abandoned and you start with 100 or so military dwarfs but you choose what type they are before you play. You then appear on the embark site with your dwarfs and you have half a season or so to get ready then you will be siege by all hostile races that can reach your fortress with  a squad or so but they will keep spawning more and more squads faster and faster the longer you survive.Every season nearby dwarf fortress or humans may send in reinforcements which moves by them selves and help you.
What do you think?

Yes I believe supports can be built on top of each other but I never tried it so dont take my word for it. You ca make like a giant tree. Make like a cylinder made out of wood up a few zs and make a sphere or something on top of it or something make out of green,yellow or red stones.Build a trade depot on top of it and when the elven caravan come wait till they unload there stuff and destroy the tree.

I love it when engravers doing bedrooms engrave images the owner of the bedroom hates.

"I hate cockroaches"
"That's good, because every tile is an image of a cockroach!"
Lol my only engraver who is a legendary is married and his wife is really annoying and everybody hates her and he engraves thousands of pictures of her in everybody's beds

I once had a legendary engraver engrave an engraving of himself engraving a masterpiece engraving.

Somebody was feeling pretty good about himself that day.
I get that alot with artifacts with pictures on them.

or just keep moving his station around to follow animal herds and set him to harass wild animals.

Hell, champion axe/sword/etc dwarves make fine hunters by doing it that way.
Yer I was about to say what he said.This is some times the only way to hunt if your in a dangerous area and your hunters are in a squad.

I put in one of the reactions from a topic that gives you 10 cave spiders.I didn't know what caves spiders where so i just put it on repeat in the workshop order.I dumped them all down a pit and 10 minutes later i went back to check on them and the webs where everywhere.I built a loom but that didn't help much so i built 9 more and i've been so busy trying to prevent my fps going down that i forgot about defence and got killed by kobold thieves.Now I always embark with a cat.

I made it so they would fall 5z down and land on a statue for all to see.But you can't remove the bodies till the statue is removed.That or my dwarfs are to lazy to clean their statue.

Creatures can survive a 20 z-level drop, including regular goblins.

I had one goblin drop 20 levels just a few days ago without even a light gray wound.  The bastard was just stunned.  A nearby marksdwarf fired one arrow and killed it anyway.

Again, 20 z-levels will not ensure a death.  Though, you'll probably not get many survivors.  When in doubt, just go higher.
How can it survive? It will explode into many pieces after 5z or so.
