I am looking back at it with some rose-tinted glasses, so I don't actually want to touch it, for fear it might be like Wizardry or Bard's Tale or Mortal Kombat which I once thought were the greatest games in the world.

Nah, it's actually still a lot of fun.
Well.
As much fun as doing the same thing over and over again, just to increasingly larger extents CAN be.

Ah, Demise.  I sunk at least 100 hours into it when it was Mordor 2, and a few into it when it was Demise, I even purchased the game.  (Not the CD version, just the download).  Unfortunately, I later "Upgraded" to windows vista, now it doesn't work anymore.  Apparently, only the Demise CD version works on vista, and Mordor 2 doesn't work at all, so I've been having huge withdrawals the last couple years, and I check the forums regularly.  The Project's cursed, and it misses release date after release date.  Apparently the game's "Finished" Now, and Decklin, the guy working on it, is just trying to fix some installer issue before mailing out the CDs, with downloads being available a couple weeks after, for some reason.

DF Gameplay Questions / Forbidding areas

Is there a way to tell my dwarves to stay away from a particular area?  (A river in this case)  They keep going over there and getting slaughtered by pikes, to an extent where one of my dwarves just went into a fey mood and crafted a crown with a picture of a pike striking down a dwarf.  I have an active well, and everything, so there's really no reason for them to be over there anyways.

Well, my minimum training size is the same as my number of active soldiers.  Oops.

DF Gameplay Questions / Military Problem
« on: February 07, 2011, 04:22:22 am »
All right, so, I built a small military squad and equipped them all with iron stuff and the like, gave them a place to train, and set squad status to active/training as I normally would.  But this time I only got the "So and so has become a so and so" A couple times.  So I checked my military menu, and only a handful of the squad is active, the others are just keeping their civilian jobs.  What am I doing wrong?
