DF Suggestions / Re: "Hiding" in containers?
« on: October 18, 2012, 05:19:14 pm »I am very much in favor of this idea, having creatures hide in containers would be a benefit.
On a side note, are living bodies considered containers?
This?
Actually, yes. That is exactly what I was lampshading.
I do not think that word means what you think it means...

Roll To Dodge / Re: Endgame: Vaguely inspired by YOU AT FINAL BOSS
« on: October 18, 2012, 05:10:53 pm »
I've decided that multiple complex actions will give penalties to subsequent actions.
BOSS TURN:
The Final Boss decides to get more minions. He casts Summon Goblins VI, [3] summoning [2+5+5] 12 goblins. Then, after controlling them with his crown, he [2] fails to do anything.
jetex's corpse [5] smashes jetex. [21*5] jetex dies. Wow.
USE THRASH, FOLLOWED BY HYPER BEAM! THEN EVOLVE BACK INTO DEMOKNIGHT AND RECLAIM SWORD.[3] Thrash isn't very effective... it only deals [8*5] 40 damage. [5-1] Hyper Beam does better, dealing [10*5] 50 damage. [2-1] You evolve into... oh, what's something more useless than Magikarp? I know, you're a fluffy wambler!
PICK UP GOLD, FLOP TO LOCAL ALCHEMIST, BUY ALL THE POTIONS Assuming picking up/equipping are free actions. If not, disregard the first.You now have gold. [2] You flop around the dungeon level but can't find any potion shops.
Tell LordSlowpoke to hold ground and let the flying thing do its work.[4] A shopkeeper is summoned. He offers you candles and a lantern.
SUMMON SHOPKEEPER
[Also maybe I should change my class to Beast Caster]
use fleshwarpers mask to grow a large impaling spike from forehead becoming magical golden seaking, use horn drill.You don't have it, it's on your corpse. You pick up the mask and put it on. [4-1] Hurrying, you turn yourself into a magical golden Seaking and [3-2] fail to hit with Horn Drill.
Err... make a running leap, followed by a slash against the boss. Also, dodge any attack headed my way.[5] You run and leap and slash. You deal [25*5] 125 damage to TFB and [6*5] 30 to yourself.
BOSS TURN:

« on: October 18, 2012, 04:59:38 pm »To the leaders of the Program,I'll contribute! Let's see, would spiders that paralyze with a bite be good?
I request for the creation of a division within my department for the development of non-lethal weaponry for the keepers of the peace. This will prevent unnecessary deaths of vital members and non-vital members of the members of the program. I shall oversee the operation personally, and follow guidelines set by yourselves.
Possibly the greatest advantage to this is the ability for Weapons developers to focus entirely upon the lethal weapons used by the military.

« on: October 18, 2012, 04:41:18 pm »That should work great I think if the person has a reasonable number of gatherers.Those whose economies depend on herbalism should have plenty of herbalists.
I think you could use gems to imbue weapons with magic?Yup, you sure can. Gem powder is a pretty powerful magical reagent, and any crystal is good at storing magical power.
More so than IRL, and real-world gems sell for a lot, no?If you don't want to mine and sell gems, you could potentially import stone, wood, metal, or whatever, and then export finished goods. I still think there's potential in gems, though--pretty much the only other reliable source of gems in the kingdom is Gondolin, and they only get diamonds. Try some sort of ruby monopoly or whatever.
I just thought it wouldn't be profitable, 'cause gems don't really have a use, do they?
But now you say it, i would still like to keep my miners.
Quote
GWG, is there any use for diamonds then other gems?Magical uses and decorations, mostly. And sure.
And i would like to turn 25 of these miners into Gem cutters.
That actually gives me an idea.Something like that makes sense. I'll try and hammer out a system...the severity of enchantments will need to be decided on a case-by-case basis...
Minor enchants could be put directly onto a weapon or armor or the like.
Maybe major enchants should require a gem to power the enchant or to contain the magic or it would damage the item it is placed on over time.
You could also have other kinds of enchants that go only on trinkets like necklaces things that give no active bonus but give passive effects to a specific person.
At the very least it would make major enchants rarer and make gems more valuable in the game.
Zrk2: Those numbers should be fine. Now you need to work on trade.
Gathers need to be specific so Wyrm can work out how much of what you have available to trade before we start the game.Actually, I need to work out what you have before anyone can assign herbalists.
