DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Giant Eagle capturing?

Giant eagles and badgers are exotic pets, so the Dungeon Master workaround would make them tameable.
In other words, remove the -EXOTIC from [PET_EXOTIC]

Giant eagles are fairly good-sized creatures, but that doesn't compensate for equipment. Metal weapons and skill will greatly compensate for the eagles' larger size, so I'd guess that eagles vs. harpies would probably usually go to the harpies.
I doubt it, as harpies are wild animals.

I have no huge preference as to where we embark though I'd prefer next to an unfrozen sea for mass fishing operations! And innovative flooding traps of course  :P
Download the world, search it, and post the site you find.

Stone in general would be a good hammer material, except the way weapons work, they never break, which would make stone hammers almost comically superior to metal ones.
Why?

Put some mechanic and mason skills in Me! (Also some engraving if possible, im Steelmines, in case you forgot.)
I remember. Between Doc Heimer and Golddagger, we have mechanics and masonry covered, but you can be an engraver. Or a leatherworker, if you say so before I start.

And also I be thinking it's time to start soon  :o
Yeah, as soon as some more sites have been suggested and the sites have been voted on. I think I'll reduce the minimum from 5 to 3.

Any name ideas, or are we throwing ourselves on the mercy of the RNG for that?

Some names ideas I'll throw out there;

Zokunrash (Siegedeath) (named after our likely fate)

Nazushstin (Bloodstrife) (ditto)

Tosidunol (Armorsouls) (for what we shall need to possess to succeed)

Eserdeler (Glitteredsteel) (because it sounds cool)
I hadn't given that much thought, except that I thought it would vary by site.

i will take the position of chief medical dwarf if that is still open. you can add any skill we still need to fill up my dwarfs time until a steady stream of injured gets going. i like the idea of a medic/mechanic/architect but like i said add anything we still need. put me on turn list too. my dwarf shall be named DocHiemer
Alright. How does a...medic/mechanic/architect/carpenter sound?

DF Modding / Re: Evil: Moddercluster the Mad Yarns of Editing.
« on: July 02, 2011, 05:12:06 pm »
Er...My raws are very modded, with FD, Dwarf Caramel, Wizard Tower, and some fiddling of my own in addition to "Moddercluster." How hard is it to uninstall the old version and install the new one, and is there anything in the new version that is incompatible with Fortress Defense, Dwarf Caramel, or Wizard Tower? (There shouldn't be, but it hurteth not to asketh.)

Hm...Still, no-one knows how to make weapons poisonous?
Also, how common are biovores? I skimmed the Tyranid codex while at my local gaming store, and they're the only ones that stuck out. An explanation for some way to simulate the spore mines would be nice, too.

I'll be an axedwarf broker. You need a broker/bookkeeper, that's for sure. Make me woodcutter when we arrive so I do something useful with my axe.

Basically make me an axedwarf and a broker and you can tack on any other skill you'd like.
Alright, that means Imboker is the manager. And that we have no noble positions left. Repeat, NO NOBLE POSITIONS LEFT. Also, only one starting dwarf.

I also need names for ashton1993's and Conan's dwarves. Also roleplaying ideas from everyone (except ImBocaire, he came up with one) would be nice.
We REALLY need crafters.

Robo: Region number's fine. I wonder what the hidden neighbor is, though...
hitty40, ashton1993: Mind if I make your guys a butcher and a tanner? Partly to give them something to do, partly to do something with the animal corpses they're going to make, but mainly to stop them from getting unhappy thoughts about having to stop killing stuff once the rabbits are gone and replaced with wolves or giant badgers or elephants or something.

Currently, it's 6-1 community choice. 5 starting dwarves filled, starting militia filled. Positions needed:

Also nice would be:

Not wanted at first, but you can have a migrant:

And I'll look for a site to put up. Where are those volcanoes?...Deep in the mountains, of course

I remember he started out with only a wooden (or was it copper?) crossbow and an army knife. Both stolen from a store in the start town.
Copper. And the theft was fluff. As was the ownership of the horse.

Given that it's a pocket I guess the civilization was small enough that a megabeast or two wiped it out during the history. Look around in legends, I'm interested to see what happened.
It is also possible that only a few civs spawned, and no goblins were among them.

Pressure plate operated hatch, two levels below the well. Dwarf has to traverse the plate to reach the well. Walking up to the well opens the hatch, giving access to the water. The Dwarf walks away, and crosses the plate, sealing the hatch again.

Simple.
Actually, what would happen is:
Dwarf does not walk to the well because it is dry.

The yellow "D" in the corner is me as a gold [D]ragon. The smiley face next to me is Ahra as a black-colored dwarf. The other smiley faces are other people on this thread.

Would someone please PM me if zephyr_hound comes back to this thread? Thanks.
