More news from my test embark: the first two migrant waves were only 6 and 2 dwarves, nothing interesting there. I traded a lot of trinkets with the dwarven caravan, and the outpost liaison and two merchants of the caravan left so thrilled about the deal that they decided to come back as migrants the next spring. Along with them came ... NISH!



Here's Nish next to Rogon's tomb and the microcline statue about Nish's and Rogon's mountain climbing a few tiles NE from Nish:

HIGH FIVE!
That is Freaking AWESOME! Where is Ubiq? Someone has got to PM him and let him know

Got to say, not sure how much further to go.  The two main things we have been hoping for have been confirmed

Once we get things started it looks like this fort is going to Seriously kick Arse!

[Ubiq]

Keep in mind that wearing clothes of any sort helps protect your dwarf so even if you don't get armor, it still pays to wear everything that you come across in your size.

Anyway, considering the sheer number of people that Nish has watched die, I'm not surprised that he doesn't trust people easily. His liking fisher berries is a nice touch as he practically lived off of them for several periods while wandering around in mountainous where few animals (well, animals large enough to be butchered) appeared. I'm also happy to see that he's a mere sixty-one as he could live around a hundred more years or so barring an accident. Does the game randomly assign these variables when an adventurer shows up or will he have this same personality regardless?

If I recall correctly, his original description was that he was short and fat, but that walking took care of that.

This thread is so full of win.  Really makes me want to figure out how to play effectively on my laptop

Can only wonder what Deebus would be like in fort mode...

But seriously, this is better than expected. They WILL show up during fort mode, then

Can we get a confirm on what version this save is now at?

Also, this is shaping up to be brilliant.

We need them to be as unharmed as possible when they arrive, though.

Hey - testing/mucking around in adventure mode (non main branch related)

I went to a mountain home (god it was a trek) called cavernbronze. hoping to find gear.

Once I got there though - there was nothing there.

Legend Viewer pegs a healthy pop of dwarves at the site, yet no one is visible. Any ideas whats going on? Experience with this?

Edit: Also, my earlier appreciation for the role of luck in the lives of our ancestors has been expanded and continues to grow, at a N^2*(1+Probability of things going bad rate.)

As of right now, Toady isn;'t sure what he wants for Dwarf cities... So there aren't any.

it really sucks for adventure mode to be sure.. But basically right now, all the "people" are stored in data.   Nothing actually exists.

so ... pretty much cubic?

Whoops - (N^2)*(every time  something happens)

I bad math.
Good god its brutal travelling. The worst part is when things start going well. Then you get overconfident and next thing you know, you've killed 24 dingoes as they mobbed you, overcome a mortal wound, murdered kobolds and dodged arrows, only to get killed while crossing a river as a hidden alligator eats your leg.

Or a random yak charges you out of no where as you travel down a slope.

Good god. Never mind finding armor is impossible depending on where you start.

-> Essentially: This is great fun. I think I am going to dump my adventurer in a city and then recruit him.

From Orky_Boss' post on tuesday, its now a 0.34.11 save.

[Ubiq]

You can mod the dwarven entity file to change their favored site to CITY so that their sites actually appear, but all of the goods in stores will be human-sized for whatever reason. On the other hand, adding dwarven keeps and catacombs along with tombs means there's no shortage of dwarven-sized goods to pilfer.

Should have an update later night, have the screenshots edited just need to write up the events, making a LOT of progress.
