Adventure Mode Challenge: Kill every last elf
« on: November 30, 2008, 02:30:34 pm »

Thanks to the legends mode of the game you know exactly how many elves are still alive. Your mission: Hunt down each and every last one of them.

Much easier on a small map that is stopped earlier in creation. If you don't feel that the elves are enough to quench your bloodlust, finish off the goblins, the humans, and heck even turn on your fellow dwarves.

Good luck, I look forward to hearing your stories of conquest. I shall tell how my own mission is going on here as well.

I wish I had thought of that I have killed every last elf in the legends. All 58 of them. Actually I found some extra elf children that were not on my list. So I checked and there are 2 children still alive out there somewhere. One from each village. Well I should soon have the last elf slaughtered. If I can find them.

It's Done! The last two children have been slaughered. The elven menace shall plague this world no more! Hunting down the last few children was hard since they were not part of legends list, I had to look through all the adult elves, find the ones with children that were still alive and marked down their names. I assumed they would be at the village, but instead found them migrating. And that's the end of of them. A nice round number, 60 dead elves. Year 2 of a 33x33 world.

I feel fairly proud. My only wound was a pine arrow to the arm that is still there, but apparently benign. I'd love if a wrestling match would get that pulled out. This was so successful that I may go after the humans or the goblins next. Heck I may kill everyone in the world. That would be hilarious. I think I'll keep the goblins for last. THat way I can have the awkward conversations with any captured child I meet. So the challenge for me has upgraded from kill all elves to kill everyone. Muahahaha!

ha, i wonder if the game'll do anything weird when everyone is dead? think you could kill yourself once you've killed everyone, so you could officially say that EVERYONE is dead?

I think that could work, Jump into a pool of water and swim until winter, freeze to death. Check the legends, only the gods and megabeasts will be still alive.

Why stop at megabeasts? (I doubt you can find and kill a GOD, then again I haven't played Adventuerer enough to encounter one if they are infact encounterable) Give the gods a completely fresh start!

I could hunt down every megabeast as well. Heck I'll do my best to locate and kill a god if they are in a physical form.

And all humans are now dead as well. The humans were easier thanks to their tendency to sleep in easy to find beds. Also no wandering children! Woot. The dwarves are next, this will take some careful spelunking. Stupid random corridors. I'll have to map out the area first then go in for the kill.

i was under the impression that gods were just normal creatures that made a big name for themselves, and so people started worshipping them. So they don't have any godly power, they're just awesome.

the ones i don't understand though are the "gods" that "take the form" of odd things, like rotting dwarves.

Gods=abstract non-physical entities.

Except the demon, and the elf trees. Burn the trees. Burn them all.

Nah. Dwarf Fortress is just the current form of an abstract non-physical entity that has been doing that for far longer.

Kate, shift-I  is for interacting with your inventory. You can pull the arrow out yourself.
