Wow. When I wrote this, I didn't expect the fun-losing-factor to be so great. And yeah, embark & this can work together.

The smallest (heh) changes can be a lot of fun.  Even if it's partially just a "HAHA I SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO THIS LOL" sort of thing.

I like the changes we need to make to accomodate a fortress in such a small space. Like building our fort around the magma pool for instance. Its difficult to put the dorfs beds 16 tiles away from any mining activity however.

Yah, run a search for "Embark Anywhere" and you'll find it.

Thanks, now I feel stupid for not checking the wiki.

Now you can thank me for adding it to the wiki.  :)

Wait, people do this?

I tend to make a big room which serves as sparring place, sleeping çuarters, food storage, and crop field. Oddly, I dont get many tantrums despite my habit of getting casualties due to less than safe earthworks..

If the dwarves are have crappy sleeps, they are that much closer to becoming unhappy, bezerk dwarves. I would sooner designate over there rather than over here and effectively give them all a happiness boost.

Has anyone embarked on a mainriver yet? Preferably sinister, lololol.

I embarked on a main river once. I only had 50 fps with the original 7, and my wagon got dropped right on top of the bridge. After realizing that I was doomed to die of FPS issues, I removed parts of the bridge and everybody died in a glorious cave-in(to the waters below)

Haha, yea, my embarking on a mainriver resulted in having no wagon (i think) because there only was a 1 tile wide ledge on the right side of the map, wich isn't even diggable, worse is that the mainriver was filled with hippos, worse then that is that a herd of elephants decided to visit my one second old fortress, worse then that is that if i would have somehow survived utter destruction, there wasn't even a layer beneath the river to dig into, if i could have reached it to there. Due to a bug most likely.
In retrospect, this map consisted of 1) water, 2) a inpenetrable ledge, 3) a herd of hippos, 4) a herd of elephants, 5) the void. Awesome.  ;D

This is a fox skull helmet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of fox bone and is encircled with bands of fox leather. This item is haunted by the ghost of Alfador Angrorung the fox.

He wasn't sure about using a "c" or a "q" i guess.

"ç" is a soft "s" sound though...

All the same, that's the equivalent of hitting 4 and 5 really quick and to dial 9.

I broke my "q" key, and thus had to make do with "ç" as an alternative. (This situation is going to make me universally known, in the end...)

I think it´s supposed to be a "z" sound in ... Portuguese, or Catalonian. (Both, I think)
