Roll To Dodge / Dawn of Worlds: Sol [Round 1]
« on: September 22, 2015, 10:53:03 pm »


What and why?
So, I've wanted to try Dawn of Worlds for awhile now. The concept is simple: it's a world generation game, you play as gods and shape a world, civilizations, and history. But the cool part is that after you've done so, you can use the world you generated for other games, or as history and back lore for literature. It's a pretty thrilling concept.

Here's the full rulebook: http://www.clanwebsite.org/games/rpg/Dawn_of_Worlds_game_1_0Final.pdf

So how do you play?:
The rounds starts out by rolling two dice for each player, these are your points. You can then choose to either spend those points that round, or wait and stockpile all or some of your points to spend on another round. World generation is divided into three ages, each with a set limit on number of rounds that can be played before going into the next age. With each age the cost to perform different actions changes, making it either more feasible to create land, races, or civilizations.

Your goal is to control more of the world then anyone else at the end of the game, through subterfuge, brute force, alliances, or whatever means
Or you know, to cause as much fun as you can for everyone else

Here's the power table:


Seems fun, I'd like to play
Awesome!, just fill out this information sheet, and I'll add you to the active player list. Once we have 6-8 players, I'll upload the empty map and we'll start playing.

To spice things up, we'll add god types, and configure the rolling system to change based on what type of god you are
Standard : Highest two dice out of three rolled.
Eldritch : Two dice + 2 points
Celestial : One dice + 5 points
Fiend: Three dice - 4 points

Code: [Select]
Name:
God Type:
God's Affinity: (Fire, life, death, clocks, whatever you want really. You can be the god of cookies and space if you so desire.)
Description:

So wait, how will rounds work?

At the start of the round I'll roll for your points and update the map.
You'll have three days to respond after the start of the round before it ends. If you don't say anything, your points will just be accumulated.

We'll be playing with a small map and a decent amount of players, so the ages will go as follows:
Age 1 ends after round 5
Age 2 ends after round 10
Age 3 ends after round 16

Dwarf Fortress is a great game, However some battles tend to be not as fullfilling as they should be.

But instead of asking about that I was wondering what your most climatic battle was like?

« on: February 24, 2011, 07:20:25 pm »
Disclaimer before we begain, I have yet to play only Fallout 3, And New Vegas so I have no idea how much if any bethseda slaughter the franchize. I would like to set this story up north in the US. By the twin citys. Also, Being terrible at drawing let just say the pictures you will receive will be square boxs, Perhaps the animals will look diffrent. That is assumeing we make it out of the vault...

Alright, As for the story line its going to be in command form: > Where you type what you want to have the character do

Also, As an after thought I am in no ways trying to infringe upon bethseda, I love your work :P

I am open to suggestions though....

And with the disclaimer over, lets hope I have enough free time!

It is 2215, Deep under ground safely nestled in Buck Hill is Vault built by Vault Tec. Un-Fourtunatly It was not one of the 17 Control Vaults. Everything, Shirts, Pants, Walls, Hats, All expect for hair, skin, the "32" on the back of jumpsuits and lights were painted onxy. They did so to see how the people would function with it ... Their were 250 Men and 250 Women. As time went on and the constant concern of overbreeding, They had restricted the ammount of people to 550. It is October 23, Your 17th birthday. Enjoy you onyx cake. Oh, And you have no friends.

« on: February 13, 2011, 12:57:14 am »
Well, After awhail of playing dwarf fortress and getting ones self addictied to ANSII I wondered if there was a farming game in ASCII. Yes I know you can just pick up any old Harvest Moon game... But its not the same... For some reason those symbols just get to me... And have beacome entrenced within me... Im pretty sure it cannot be called a "Rougelike" Due to it not being like Rouge :P

Anywase, Moveing onto the main topic of this thread. Does anyone know of such a thing?, I think it would be intresting to play...

« on: February 01, 2011, 07:42:49 pm »
Currently on my longest running fortress and the second time I have ever gotten a mayor...

He has off and on mandates, All of whitch an a ban on a export

What is tihs you ask?, A certain stone perhaps?... No... He demands I don't export Lay Pewter items...

So, Anyone else even had a reasonable mayor?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Plans: Goblin Deathrun!
« on: January 30, 2011, 02:45:40 am »
I plan to deck out this hall way with only stonefall traps, Beacuse it will kill them slower...



Maybe I should add a few lines of weapon traps here and there... And if any goblin scum makes it out they get the honour of meeting my wardogs...

Is this a good plan?, Or should I add Other things aswell?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Urist McChef Obsessed with dogs?
« on: January 29, 2011, 09:20:12 pm »
A while back, After embarking I had ordered four dogs, They had puppys so I thought "Oh, Ill make the dogs War dogs and there puppys pets!"

So I assumed that most of my dwarfs would have there own puppys. Then I looked on my Animals screen to find this:

Why is my Chef stealing all the puppys and claiming them as his own?, God knows they can't be stored all together within his 3x3 Room.

Is this regular?
