I like Toady's elves - they're at least a little original. Tolkien elves are fine, but they're in every other fantasy setting. Why would you want them in this one?
And Goblins not needing to eat...
If a convincing setting base answer can be given, I have no problem with it.

I love cave crocs. I chained one outside my cave outpost. It took numerous monsters and injuries and several years before it finally succumbed to infection.

Some bits of it work really well, others just seem to clash and it seems to trip over itself.
Good effort, feels like it could be refined though.

Either: build additional workshops and assign extra dwarves to fill the workshops.

It would be awesome to go up against an old undead adventurer who had retained all the skills. But then I suppose it doesn't make that much sense. So maybe if they're just zombies and such they just retain the physical stats. However with the new nightcreatures and whatnot, it'd be interesting if you got raised or turned into a monster or something after death, that kept the physical stats - like the vampires we've been hearing about.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Graveyard layouts
« on: May 23, 2011, 12:08:56 pm »
I have two graveyards: One a series of individual 3x3 tombs for my heroes and nobles (larger for the bigger nobles, or better warriors), the other a couple of large rooms with row upon row of stone caskets, where the other, less notable, dead reside.
