!!DALEKS!! and Introducing: Cybermen!
« on: March 31, 2012, 04:36:37 am »

Ladies and gentlemen, finally a creature that can exterminate husks! I present to you...


Crashed on a dirty, backwater fantasy universe, the Daleks mobilize to quickly take over and exterminate so that they can rebuild and escape! The Dalek empire is a hostile civ which will seige you (and everyone else). They have no weapons, gear, or items whatsoever aside from their casings, but that is enough. However, if you can figure out a way to harvest their shells you can get Dalekanium, which is harder than steel, incredibly dense and temperature resistant, but can't take an edge. They sometimes send raiders to steal supplies to feed their reconstruction efforts. Daleks can reproduce through special cloning units (Progenitors) which are found only at their sites. In world gen, it is likely their empire will grow very large, but stop after a while.

Daleks will try to shoot you full of laser, causing severe burns to anything and the blasts hit with extreme force. Up close they will attempt to plunger you to death

How do I kill them?

That's the bit you have to find out! Have FUN!

Let the !!EXTERMINATION!! Begin!

And now, Introducing: THE CYBERMEN!


They are uniform. They are eternal. They are legion! And they will make you like them. Cybermen are unfeeling cyborgs who seek to end pain and suffering by turning everyone into more of them. While seemingly noble, they want to remove your emotions, identity, and free will as well, because these things can cause pain. They will show up if a civilized being, wanting immortality, finds an infostamp transcribed on stone containing the secrets of cybernetics. They will thank the god of crafts for it, and proceed to follow it's instructions, becoming a cyber leader.

Well, what will these ones do to my dorfs?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
They can convert dwarves, goblins, humans, and elves. Probably some animal men, too. If pressed for numbers, they may even make flimsy cyber slaves out of the recently deceased. Rotten or dismembered corpses are no good, though. The Cyber Leaders basically are walking conversion stations. Do not engage in melee!

How can I kill them?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Try anything that works against armored foes.

On the flip side, finding a cyber tablet in adventure mode can be very fun. Enjoy converting your very own horde of cyborgs!

This is brilliant, glad you got it to work!

Looking at this, I came up with a little idea for how weeping angels might work... I'll test it and let you know if it pans out.

E-LE-VATE!

Oh hell yes, Daleks. (I vote for Old Greg testing Weeping Angels.)

Normal staircase, maybe. Spiral with limited headroom and railings? Doubt it.

This is terrifying.

I also demand Cybermen for proper curb stomping.

Working on cybermen!
Also, that adv mode encounter resulted in death by melting. They also fractured my leg via plungering when I tried to spear one.
Haven't gotten a fort along far enough for seiges, so I've got no data on how to stop them. Anyone else encountered daleks yet?

EDIT: I think I should add stonesense sprites and soundsense sounds. Any idea how to do that?

Posting to watch, and also to suggest Sontarans. Because you can never have too many midget races of pure destruction.

Just occured to me that when dwarves survive long enough to develop space travel, that's where sontarans came from.

Re: !!DALEKS!! now with Stonesense sprites!
« Reply #14 on: March 31, 2012, 08:09:59 pm »

Added a Dalek sprite for stonesense to the download! If you know how to add in sprites for Stonesense, the files are in StoneSenseDalekSprites.rar, which is within the main rar file.
This may look like a Dalek adventurer, but it is actually a dalek standing over my corpse
