DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Lowered Bridges
« on: February 28, 2011, 09:35:25 pm »
I'm currently looking into constructing a retracting bridge over a volcano as a form of defense. However, I am unsure whether trolls will break the bridge down, resulting in their deaths being rather undwarfy as they are perforated by my crossbowmen.

Will trolls destroy retracted bridges over a volcano? If so, will they preferably be on it when they do this?

I try to knock him out... then I end up mutilating his face with an axe... What?

Meta: Tie the entire shirt around my torso to stop my arm from bleeding.
Fantasy: Try to detach HEN from my back, then steal someone's shirt to wrap HEN's face in.

They have no edge, as far as I'm aware of.

I must mod these in right now.

And my repeated failures at getting a nice embark with precious metals, iron, flux, and fuel confirms the above. Countless times have I embarked in a location only to get massive amounts of cobaltite as my metal.


On another note, I finally found an awesome embark on a volcano with iron and flux, but the lack of anything else precious saddens me.

What about titanium? Just as strong as steel, but really, really light. And, in my game, a lot more valuable (I reduced the value of steel. I mean, all you need is flux (common) fuel (common) and iron (super-rare).

Lungfish can get pretty big, and will attack just about anything that looks like it might be made of meat. I was disappointed to learn that they are as good as vermin. No danger, no meat, no bones, just junk for cats to pathfind to and create garbage.

Well, these are also vermin, apparently.

You... uhh.. don't.

What Girlinhat said. You should hurry too. I've lost a fort because of migrant ghosts. And it was an awesome embark too, with a funhouse and everything.

Cinnabar and cobaltite, despite having no use at all but a unique color (only with cobaltite, too), count as metals. I've had so many cases where my only deep metal was mercury. Useless.

Darn it. Cobalt is like the new microcline for me. Nearly EVERY SITE HAS IT.

Update: Alright, I finally managed to get a map with bauxite. I look inside the bauxite to find sapphire. To my further enjoyment, I see star sapphires in said sapphire clusters.

So diamonds are very, very rare but it should be totally possible to have diamonds on a map. Definitely worth sacrificing a metal, unless it's iron.

Equip the Disintegrator X1 and shout at the elites: "GET ON THE GODDAMN GROUND WITH YOUR HANDS ON YOUR HEAD OR I'LL RIP YOU APART ATOM BY ATOM WITH THIS MOTHER FREAKING GUN!"

It wouldn't technically rip them apart, it would just instantly sublimate all of their tissue resulting in a spray of tissue's component molecules... in other words, big boom.

True. That's why I modded the values of said minerals so that at least they'll give me higher value crafts.

The exception is gems. Gems do not count and are actually quite common.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Damaged ligaments
« on: February 26, 2011, 11:14:36 pm »
Two of my three military dwarves have torn ligaments and tendons from danger room accidents.

Question: Will it heal or are they crippled forever?
