Granted. They come, and you are unprepared.

I wish my insanity could be turned to the betterment of mankind.

Party member. It gets better.

Would you rather be stuck in the wilderness with only clothes and a watch or only a backpack full of food?

TRY TO ASCEND TO A HIGHER PLANE OF EXISTENCE, IF POSSIBLE, LAUGH AT THE IDIOTS UNDER ME!

[6] Congrats. No one on Mars is visible from your plane.

Type "Atomic Space Limpet" into the laptop.

[4] A limpet adapted for space which feeds off nuclear power appears! It latches onto a random starship.

NO!

Found the Bacon Seperatist Movement and establish self as charismatic leader.

[6] You found the Bacon Separatist Movement and it promptly grows beyond your control. Your powers are reduced until you are little more than a figurehead for a scheming politician.

I tell the labtop to give my body the ability to defy gravity

[1] Your buddy now divines brevity.

CONTINUE BOTHERING POELPE FOR MOAR POWAAA

[1] You bother people and get deleted. Despite being unconscious. Respawn?

Escape marshmellows, attack Khajiit.

[1] You escape the marshmallows, can't find the khajiit, and get crushed by the marshmallows. Respawn?

GM Turn:
Batxenomorph [1] tries to get his Bat-Xenobreather but grabs his Bat-Acid instead. This makes the various others he tries to help worse.
The band tries to summon an aquarium to put the Black Lagoon Monster Green Arrow trumpeter in so he doesn't anexphyxiate. [1] Whoops, that seems to be a fish fryer, but BLMGAT jumped in...
The mutant Gordon Ramsay [2] finds a two-armed space suit [5], modifies it for a third arm, and dons it.
Tree-san sits still.
Next turn, everyone will die of anyxfixiation if you don't have some way to not suffocate, unless you can repair the dome!

Let's do some salvaging.

I would have thought that artifacts were impossible with this challenge. I thought you had to mine a certain number of tiles in order to get artifacts.

No, its a population limit.

You need 20 dwarves, and your cap on artifacts varies based on how many tile have been revealed.

The red dashes mean that the civ is hostile to yours, but not actively at war.
I'm not sure if that has any effect on the game past worldgen.

Hostile civs are, uh, hostile.
Is there a difference between outright war and mere hostility? I think war triggers sieges faster, and it let's you be at war with human or elven civs,

Comparing ASCII-users to the Roman Empire is kinda mean...
I use ASCII and don't see why it's so hard to hit k or v, or how various letters are harder to identify, with context, than various images. I don't want to force ASCII on anyone, but I'm guessing at least 25-30% of DF players use some variety of ASCII.

"A 16 by 16 vector image of a table" is nonsense. Vector images are not defined in terms of pixels. That being said, vector images are displayed rather poorly at those resolutions, especially if you want any sort of detail.

I believe he meant something like "A vector image defined from a 16*16 image."
