[Zanzetkuken The Great]

With this succession game, the players will strive to control a fortress that is under assault by a variety of pathogens.  How will this be done in a controlled manner so that every player has to strive against at least one disease during their year?  Simple.  The 'Screw the Next Player Over' mechanic of leaving a trap behind for the next player to have to work around will be used.  However, rather than creating mechanisms to hinder other players, this fortress will instead have the players creating a reaction that, at the end result, creates a spreading disease that the next will have to contain in some manner.  After the reaction is completed, the reaction used to create the contagion will then be removed from the raws, but the method of getting the disease out (ex. vaporizing stone) is left in the raws so that the disease can work properly, and it is difficult to find out what the syndrome is.

Word of Caution: While powerful contagions are !!Fun!!, try not to make them too powerful, or else the disease could wind up having the game becoming impossible.  We don't want to end it utterly, just put it to the brink.

With that out of the way, who wants to join?  Since adding in reactions does not require a regeneration of the world, we could use any fortress created in the current generation (though we can still generate an entirely new world), so if the succession fort hasn't started yet, post your suggestion.

Ooooooh, shiny!

In all seriousness, add me in.

I vote to generate an entirely new fortress for this.

Edit: Are we going to have DFHack enabled exclusively for the purpose of using autosyndrome?  I'm writing up possible syndrome raws now for testing, but it would be easier not to have to write up two versions.  Also, autosyndrome would guarantee success.
