Bay 12 Games Forum

Hi there,

I will be hosting a Minecraft server devoted to creating a DF atmosphere.  It will be an attempt at a DF multiplayer using Minecraft as the game engine.  The gameplay will consist of the traditional fortress mode.  Seven players will be selected to play as the dwarfs while the rest will be given the opportunity to play as NPC's.  (merchants, elves, goblins, etc.)  As time progresses goblins will grief siege the fortress.  Any dwarfs that perish will be unable to play for the remainder of the round.  Once all dwarfs are dead, a new round will begin.  Fortresses that were built will remain intact, but all items/chests/loot will be removed.  The first few rounds players will not have the option of embarking near or on previous fortresses.  For now the world map consists of 128x128 chunks that is broken into a grid of 16x16 chunks.  (which is 256x256, a normal DF map is 257x257)  This should give players enough room to build and gather supplies without shortage.  Later I plan to add certain areas that are good, evil, neutral and include different difficulty factors for each.  I intend to make it so that the harder the difficulty the greater the rewards.   

I do intend to record and make an archive of each fortress.  Every hour of gameplay will be shortened to 1 minute covering highlights.  At the end of a fortresses demise there will be a youtube tribute video.

(obviously, you will need to have Minecraft in order to play)
