DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Dead Wagon

It will be changed when Toady adds in proper vehicles/moving platforms. In the meantime, it's a decent approximation.

As have I.

OOC, we have a deal. IC, of course, our lawmakers haven't even met with each other...

Oh, and by the way:
Why not all of us team up? I get Europe and part of Africa, China gets most of Asia and part of Africa, and Japan gets the Americas!
If we can get someone on the Americas to join us, they can have whichever one Japan doesn't get...that way, each of us gets about a continent(europe is relatively small)!
With China's industry, numbers, and willpower, Russia's pride, endurance, and rescources, and Japan's craftsmanship, skill and innovation, nothing can defeat us!
I'm fine with this plan.
I'm game, ill need some military advisors from Russia however, the daimyo's could be a future problem. As for conquests I want either Korea or Indochina (China can decide which they want more) as well as Oceania, the Pacific islands, and north America naturally.
You can have Korea and most of the Pacific islands, but I'd like Indonesia. We can split ownership of Australia.

What are you, hm?

Are you a clown looking for a "gig"? No, that's just silly. You're not silly, and certainly not colorful enough to be a clown. You do, however, feel a bit depressed.

As for being an at-symbol, preposterous. You're a person, good as any other. You don't have a whip, either, it would be in your inventory if it existed. And as to an important appointment...oh, dear.

You don't remember much of anything.


...Well, first order of business, give yourself a name, right? And might as well figure out gender while you're at it.

You know what? DF's been running for a day, waiting for me to hit 'e'...screw it, Strike the Earth!


Journal of GreatWyrmBrass XX, as translated by
We have arrived. After a journey from the Mountainhomes into the forbidding wilderness beyond, our harsh trek has finally ended. My party, seven including myself, is to make an outpost for the glory of Urdim Gamil. There are almost no supplies left, but with hard work comes sustenance. Whether by bolt, plow, or axe, I will provide for these my dwarves. I'm expecting a supply caravan just before Winter entombs us in a frigid tomb..but it is warm Spring now, leaving enough time to delve secure lodgings, ere the grizzlies get hungry or the goblins get our scent. A new chapter of dwarven history begins here at this place, Nazushoggez...

Blast it! We've ended up on a godsforsaken cliff! Our wagon is shattered, with bits of wood scattered over the mountain below...

Seven dwarves, three alpacas, two geese, two dogs, two cats, two turkeys, two yak bulls, and a bit of supplies. What shall we do now?


Okay, what now?

Save for the initial embark.

Yeah, i do think it imlpies bringing the god back soon after his death, but still after death
In the same way CPR brings someone back from death, yes.

I think it's just a grammar thing, guys.
The most clear thing for me is "prevent."

Inquire about Tenkor.

Have I mentioned how great your art is recently?

That would be correct, though.
Excellent. I had that hunch at first, but then I thought it was too obvious and didn't quite fit...

I am not the sky's way,
I am not a fruit,
But when these are combined
You get something good.

I am not a hot drink
Of leaves and water,
Nor am I a conman
Missing silent letter.

Combine all of these hints
And then you will see
Something you should do
And fill us with glee.

33898
Oh. I already know that.

...Anyone who wants to learn Advanced Farming, let me know. Competition means you can haggle with us better.

Furthermore the Pantheon can burn 5 Acts to prevent the complete Death of the God. What happens then to him you ask? That depends on how he was killed and how you intend to safe him.
Preventing death isn't bringing someone back to life. The former includes CPR, the latter includes Jesus.
A Key word there was killed, suggesting that he was already dead
The way I read it is, "how he would have been killed," which makes more sense to me than shoehorning "prevent" to mean "undo."
But the wording is how he WAS killed
The wording is also "prevent"...although I just realized the word "complete," implying a period of time after being attacked but before actually passing away where the god could be saved. I doubt the grace period lasts more than a fraction of a turn, though.

Incidentally, the cost for my classes has just dropped. Make an offer.

I'm willing to swap Irrigation for my Advanced Agriculture, Pariah.
