Ok, just discovered that several of my creatures are already included. I'll correct that today.

This looks cool, but it's competing with the rapidly changing version number on Dwarf Fortress itself. Maybe it's just me, but I think you might get more interest when DF is more stable-ish.

And less buggish; AFAIK there are several game-breaking bugs right now, including: dwarves refusing to fight and goblins refusing to siege.

*Shrugs* Yeah, you are right, but I was getting annoyed with having it cluttering up my to-do list and decided to just go ahead and post.

Yep - I experienced one of my first bugs a little while ago; I was working on Dungeon Fortress when my War Trolls refused to attack. I was terrified that it was a bug I had created, but it was probably the bug causing war beasts to not attack.  ::)

I quite like this. It doesn't have a whole lot in it but what's there is solid and nice.

I would focus on things that are likely to be forward-compatible, like new underground creatures or maybe plants or trees? Stuff that fits DF in a general sense.

Underground mushrooms that don't have branches but are basically stalagmites that you can chop down and make into very heavy very sharp wooden things. Fire-safe! burns in magma! exciting! Underground pickable fruits!

Maybe giant spiders for savage biomes. Do we have those already? I'm not sure.
