Kill the cultists. Maybe reveal the vampire so you don't make anyone mad by killing the wrong guy.

DF Suggestions / Re: Good regions being painfully good
« on: February 20, 2012, 12:52:26 pm »
Here's an idea. In good regions, there are healing springs, mists that grant magical powers, rain of alcohol, etc.
However...
Invaders use the healing springs. Dwarves with magical power go mad with power and/or normally, and take down more of your militia/civilians/infrastructure with them. Alcohol rain makes everything more flammable, which causes issues when a dragon or fire-breathing titan or something comes along.
In other words: Evil areas kill you, good areas help you nut also helps things trying to kill you.

Yet another way that elves are like bugs.

So sometimes there are hardly any people attacking me, and sometimes I need to stay in a town to avoid being attacked by criminals?
Better than it is now, I guess.

You need custom reactions. That's about all I can say right now...I'll get back to you once my computer gets back to working. Unless someone else beats me to it.

Another, related question: Are necromancer- and evilbiome-zombies hostile to one another? And if not, how would we change that?

Nothing. Why would a TRUE dwarf care about friendships except as an excuse to murder stuff?
What would Urist do if he was the king of elves?

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Re: How To Survive The New Version
« on: February 17, 2012, 09:36:58 pm »The recent release should have toned down the ambush rates, plus observer/intuition lower the chances as well.If it did, it increased the number of groups who want to ambush you to compensate. ALL of my adventurers have run into bands of whatevers shortly after creation.

Otherwise,I find savescumming cheating, they can probably catch up to me but I might try running if I can get far enough away, and I might try the tree one.
Running away, savescumming, & hiding behind trees before slowly pebbling them to death.
Run away, become a vampire, then become a necromancer. I guarantee, nothing will stop you.Any advice on where to find vampires? Other than "underneath layers of crafts made from the hair, nails, bones, and teeth of their victims."

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / How To Survive The New Version
« on: February 17, 2012, 08:53:29 pm »
Seriously. In 31.25, I had no issue with keeping adventurers alive as long as I kept them away from non-titan megabeasts and bogeymen, but had nothing to do. In 34.01, I am having trouble keeping the inevitable goblin/dwarf/human/fucking kobold ambushes from killing me. Oh, and of course I never start in towns, only hamlets, so I need to travel the bandit-packed wilderness between human settlements to get to anything interesting. If I don't die when getting to town, I die to a mummy's curse or get all of my limbs crippled by a couple goblins in a dungeon.
All that aside, this seems like a great update to play an adventurer in, if I can get anywhere. Does anyone have any advice on how I can, say, get to the point where I can defeat a necromancer and learn the Secrets of Life and Death without dying before then?

My axeman had an epic battle with an axegoblin. After killing his spearwoman leader and pike-wielding pal, the axer promptly crippled my legs. We started hacking at each other; I swiftly removed a foot, and it went from there. After I removed his weapon-wielding hand, he picked his axe up in the other. He disabled my arms, shield-arm first, as well as one foot; I bit and tore off his remaining hand. He bled to death; after one turn of somehow picking the loot off of the dead axegobbo, I followed suit. In bleeding to death, that is.
