Mod defaults are No-Aquifer, so I think we are safe from that. ;)

What the heck - I'll take the Dwarves.  Also, I'd like to request no starting resources as part of the embark - just the three pieces of wood we get from the wagon and whatever bones/meat we get from the wagon-beasts to start out.

Taupe: Sorry, I read that " I might join, depending on the schedule, and how long you plan to let this project run." as a maybe. If you want the Warlocks, you can have them, but they are pretty tricky to play. I'd download the mod and have a look at them first. They shine in evil regions and anything full of undeads, but are rather hard in the long run.

If than402 is willing to change, you best decided for yourself. Like I said, I'd recommend downloading the mod and looking at the readmes for the different races. :)

:o

The Hermit would pretty much die to any wildlife nearby and go insane from "no clothing", because he starts without any.

Remember that people here play some races for the first time, like Taupe, Boltgun and me... a no item embark is a challenge, yes, but not a good way to start a long-running series of forts.

Edit: I'll update the mod before we start, so you have a few days to decide between Warlocks/Humans etc. ;)

I guess it all boils down to how dedicated and competitive you want this to be. I'm fine going in and trying a tricky race, as long as don't people don't expect me to win.

There is no win or lose. For the stories sake I'll add some arbitrary point system (Gnomes fort has the most wealth, Dwarf fort killed the most enemies), but thats not the point of this thread. Not a competition.

The main part with the Warlocks (at least at the moment) is that you have a very limited amount of civ members. You lose one, he is gone forever, and you only have 5-10 to start with. But I wanted to change that anyway before we start to play here. As I said, just have a look, and then tell me which one it will be. Than402 seems more than happy to accomodate your wishes, and he will take the other race.

Ah true. I rescind my request and change it to "in a temperate clime, with frozen winters"
