Losing all my travel companions because they can't retreat.


I was lucky enough to escape, have the goblins un-load from the site and come back to loot their bodies.. now i have no way to travel at night.

123. Don't chase after the wildlife that killed your last character.
124. Don't use a legendary lasher to chase after the wildlife that killed your last 4 characters.
125. Don't use companions to chase after the wildlife that killed your last 6 characters.


Man all those posts that have nothing to add to the list really threw me off i'm not sure what i'm supposed to list any more! =P

I actually try to avoid mods for this game. doesn't feel right.

I might draw my own tile set though

I ended up having to scrap that world any way. Shame.

So a virgin elf enters the city and starts skinning cats?

Is it dead now?

My oddest historical figure in one of my regions killed ten cats before getting swarmed by traders.
The best part is I saw the whole thing on my adventurer. I have no idea why she attacked the cats but it was hilarious. There were at least twenty angry traders hunting her down with knives.

The weirdest part is she was an elf ._.

Spoiler: How it must have looked (click to show/hide)

this is good news for me, and thank you for the back pack idea.

I usually have a place to sell all these things i pick up but .. there isn't a town near by and i have no companions.. i don't really know what to do about it.

So now at least i can hustle all my small time loot into one place and keep it there while i try to find a way out of this mess.


As for the jewlery: I'm wearing the jewlery of a fallen comrade. She had family in some other part of this world - It'd be cool to take it to them. She had a raven bone crown and other bone fancy wear.

In my world, i have one vampire with 7,717 kills - another with 2,303 and so on.

So far 7.7k is the best I've seen.  I have lost about ten adventure characters to various threats in this world for various reasons - number one being that gear is hard to find and most bandits are crazy good at this or that weapon skill.

I don't remember how Long my world history is but  i have a feeling that this 7.7k vampire has murdered most of one nation, looking at the near by cities..

She is kept in a dungeon under a keep.


What are my options?

What odd histories and beasts plague your world?

There was a super goblin under mine. dodge skill like jesus and was punching the crap out of my companion..

I was eventually taken out. I figured it was a jail break.

Is it bad that i have a personal system of justice?

15 layers above the surface is a diving board.
Back in the Barracks theres a little squad called "You Did A Good Thing!"

So "Urist McGood" does a can-opener into my "scrap pit" where i dump every thing ever.
Bodies..
Cloths..
...Bodies..

I love seeing things added to this pile. I've added Kobies.. little gobs.. cats.. UNGRATEFUL LIVESTOCK THAT WONT FREAKING EAT THE TASTY GRASS

.."doo gooders"

My warm fuzzies kick in when the parts sail in all directions and fall off the podium in the center.

No. I'm your militia commander. Splint, while certainly not without good ideas, seems too pessimistic for a leader.
I mean, 'when we're all dead'? We won't be dead for a long, long time. Remember: we're not dwarves. We will not suffer FPS death at any visible point in the future, and therefore the idea of dying early to begin again is rendered less than lucrative when applied to us humans.
In the Twelfth Bay, Prevailing is Fun.

@Olliolli: I heartily approve of your suggestion on fortifications. Let's waste no more time and go install murderholes into the main corridor.

See, this is why i like that whole GUI part of not being in the fortress.
Now i can't just click around and figure out who is assigned to who in the military menu.


Formally, I'd like to request "rainy day" iron bolts and a silver crossbow..

Ya know. So i can defend myself.

Okay so i'm a die hard bow/thrower in ADV and my dwarf armies are constantly backed by Marksdwarves two columns thick.

I. Love. Ranged. Combat.

My favorite targets are apparently Ears, Eye lids and Toes currently.
My last adventurer died due to every shot landing in legs and tiny removable parts. (Ears, eyelids.. that sort.)


I'M TRYING TO BRIDGE TO SOCIETIES WITH PEACE AND TRADE, CAN'T YOU JUST DIE. GOSH.

God damn, I would hate to be neighbours to me. I must sound like a crazy-person, cackling maniacally at stupid-fucking-o'clock in the morning.

My girlfriend probably thinks I'm doing the jive in my pants with all this girlish giggling and squeaking..need to move the PC..

So if nothing else, this thread promotes Kobold Vs Dwarf PVP multiplayer game states.

Whos up for some of that action?

stick an impassable, shoot throughable obstacle between them and the enemy. Problem solved so long as they have ammo.
