Loop Succession game Idea pool (League sponsered)
« on: October 19, 2009, 10:56:52 am »

Hey all Its Dante` from The Dwarf Fortress Multiplayer League (Or whatever we're calling ourselves now.)

I'm going to be hosting a loop succession game but before we start I'd like to know what everyone thinks we should have as our starting conditions ect.  Theres a few things I'd like to know from you.

Where do you think the 'ideal?' starting point would be.

Everyone of the starting seven players gets to choose a dwarf and what skills he shall have (please post in -point into skill-.
Also the starting seven decide what to take with,  Remember we will have a very tight budget so we'll figure out the math later.

Meanwhile lets find us a nice group of people to play.

If you want to join the League I'll post up a link for it later.

Count me in. About the terrain, it depends if we want it really "ideal" or if we want some kind of handicap to make it fun. Personally I don't care one way or the other, but some kind of challenge would make the game a bit more interesting. I'm not saying to make a Nist Akath MkII, but you know what I mean.

Now to more dwarfy things ;D, I present you:

Name: "Gae Bolt"
Skills:
Competent Metalsmith (18 p)
Competent Weaponsmith (18p)
Mechanic (11p)
Hammerdwarf (11p)
Equipment: An iron warhammer, or in its defect the materials to create it (should we create the picks and other tools on site?). Plus some ore if we can afford it. Probably not.

One more thing, maybe someone else should take 2nd place. I'm already 3rd in the other League game, plus I'm kind of new and I don't want to screw up a florescent 2nd year fortress...   :-\

Ok good idea, We'll make the stuff ON SITE meaning you should probably request a specific metal (And note: if we break the bank I'll make changes here and there)

My only requirement would be no friggin aquifier (unless someone else wants to take first turn with a fort like that, in wich case I'll play 2nd or 3rd. I just HATE aquifiers).

Lol sava.

Also cats either = food OR cats = dead.   If their food they'll just lose all four of their legs and be left to live in the dungeons.

On a more literal note, 4 cats cost less than two magnetite ores (48 p) if I remember right, so it shouldn't be a problem. And who wouldn't want dwarves decked out in kitten leather armor? It'll show those damn elves, that's what!

Find one without an aquifer, with magma, and you've got yourself a deal.

I almost wanna say "make it all fit in the embark" but then we'd not get any caravans recruits or sieges.
