Slow internet connection so here's a screenshot instead.



The first is The Valley of the Dwarves. The second is the twin glacier volcanoes you mentioned. The third is another set of twin volcanos, which are sinister, and are surrounded by flat land. The one on the right had the volcano down far enough that you can embark with it in a corner and the rest of the map as a calm flatland. The local evil rain is dwarf blood... well, at least it was on mine.

Not Exactly the same. but we still have a starting Civ in "The Valley of the Dwarf."
Let me know when you get a chance to upload it to the archives.

Hero works, there wont be any demigods yet.
Once the map is uploaded, your mission is, wherever you start, to fight your way to "The Valley of the Dwarves" and retire at the mountain home there.
Once we have 5 to 7 people do this, the game will start up proper.

Alright. So I'll either be Human (Not outsider, since they don't get a map) or dwarf...

Making adventurers and trying to get to a specific locale on the map to start a dawn-of-time fort? Sounds awesome, I'll give it a shot.

The "Plot" is that the starting warriors are the First Dwarves Ever to found a civlization.
When the seven get together at the same spot, they shall be the seven to found the First Great Dwarven Civilization "AT THE DAWN OF TIME"

I shall put you down for one of the seven... As soon as the map gets loaded.
Ubiq generated it, but I have not heard back from him :/

I'll have it online in a little while. http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=6233

As a side-effect of regenning it in vanilla .06 versus the modded version I usually use, the local dwarven civ has moved to the southernmost tip of The Bronze Towers rather than taking up prime real estate in the Valley of the Dwarves.

In the meantime, check this 4x4 site just to the east of The Valley of the Dwarves:



The Sinister Tropical Broadleaf (local rain - elf blood) and Serene Swamp have any number of connecting sites, but this is the only one I found that includes all three. A test embark had nine hippos by the way.

Downloaded the game, and I am now setting up my character. My profile will be posted seperate of this.

EDIT: I'm looking at the valley of the dwarves, and there isn't a dwarven civilization there. I'm not sure if I didn't download everything I needed to, or if something happened...

Pic, or it didn't happen.

Reposting since an edit doesn't activate the 'new' notification.
