Assigning a military uniform composed of a pick (axe or bow) won't do anything for the miner (woodcutter or hunter) "uniform", if you issue an order without an enemy in LoS, the miner (woodcutter or hunter) will simply drop his mining (woodcutting or hunting) pick (axe or crossbow) and go and equip another one according to his military uniform, it doesn't matter if the civilian "uniform" and the military uniform has the same type of weapon, they simply go through an equipping cycle anyway.

maybe it's not full yet? minecarts can carry a lot of items, specially low weight items like plants and meals.

Couldn't we ask our sponsors for some redroot dye to dye our beard, hair and eyebrows red, and to lend us a long coat and a hood, for our disguise?

^ keep our semi-fantastic story about getting lucky to scape the old fort and that now we are the rightful lord of the old fort.

find out what was going on when we got hit? why was the whole shenanigans with the dwarf and the goose? what happened to them?

ask advice for what would be the best course of action for someone in our situation. they know their fort, they are in a guild, they seem to be under the mandate of the nobles, not the warden, and they seem like nice people, otherwise they would just have left you knocked out.

Ask why we weren't taken to a Hospital instead? make conversation about the differences in living conditions that were noted in their house and our old fort, that would give us more insight...

Ask about the brewery, ask about the prison, ask about the old lady, basically ask about everything we've encountered so far, to cross-reference and see if they got more insight.

Ask for an updated map.

We still need a place to stay and a source of food and booze, we need a base of operations, maybe after we get to know how things work around here, find out news about our old fort and start planning a reclaim with ourselves as lord?

investigate! if we are in a Hospital use the opportunity to get checked in case we contracted a syndrome from our lucky night!


For Armok! don't tell me we suddenly wake up in a hospital to discover the fort has gone to hell in a zombie apocalypse, a la Rick in the Walking Dead?

Colour applies to all items, and can be used as a workaround to equip bone or shell or leather items in equipment options that don't list that particular material.

Can you explain this? I'm not sure I understand, and I've always wondered what the possible uses of this setting are.

me too, I'm guessing is something like "white" whatever forces the dwarf to pick bone items and brown for leather, but an actual example would be great, 1st time I also hear of this workaround.

@name: Urist Peasant (he's not a Smith) or whatever Peasant translates to in Dwarven.

@action: talk a bit more over another round of ale (there's less people now) and the drunker they get the more interesting stuff they might slip, then we check out the pipe-dwarf wares.

Also who the F voted for elves in the last poll!? Explain yourself immediately or prepare to be lynched!  

I was wondering this too, maybe it was someone trying to stir up chaos in the thread?
