Okay, i'm ready with my turn. I played half a year. Having played two turns almost back to back, I don't have a need to get my hands on the save anytime soon. Maybe you guys can play Longnight till it's done and i could try join in on the next round of adventuring
Thoughts:at least 2k-3k goblin and elf body parts remain on the surface. mostly teeth, of course.. there is a dump order for most of them buut maybe its time to just autodump destroy.
lore says the skeletons would weather into dust
The #1 thing that has struck me about 0.50+ is that cleanup is even more difficult than it was in older versions. I support autodump.
- Yes, this is the way, I think. Dumping everything on the surface by hand is not viable. It drains the fun out of the game. I think the corpses is still manageable, if there's a smasher / lava pit close to the battle scene. Hauling the clothes and elf armor takes way way too long.
-> so I used autodump to delete most of the stuff remaining on the surface. I agree, also recommend relaxed use of autodump. This is a war succession, not janitor and hauling succession
-> better to make high quality trades with merchants, selling lots of junk is risky because it slows the merchants - they should leave the map as quickly as possible for their safety
- Other stuff I deleted:
Most of the meat
Most of the coal
Teleported half of the ostriches into lava
Wanted to delete the copper but it's in mixed bins so i don't know how
More screenshots:nice screens. ya the copper cladding over the mechanisms was sort of incomplete, mostly for show n so on. I knew that most of the sieging forces were not bringing building destroyers so I felt pretty safe with that design but no one expects the werechinchilla lord consort
Image 1: Leba Clinchclout, the chinchilla lord consort What’s this? Fighting in the deep staircase? There’s a trail of Zatam Kesvudthar’s frozen extract leading to an unlocked door into the third cavern layer. What? Why is it open? Gem cutter ‘Barrel’ finds herself face to face with the giant mite. She and a bard start fighting it in hand-to-hand combat, with the mite blasting frozen extract everywhere.
Thankfully it ended quickly when ‘Hurt’ Hamecrystal hacked it to pieces with her masterwork pickaxe. She now has two FB kills! But on the way back home to the fort, Hurt collapsed, then Barrel. Their entire bodies were rotting away, until they were completely mangled. There was nothing to be done. I locked them into the sickbay to wither away in agony. So if you wonder about a walled-in sickbay filled with corpses, that's what happened.
Image 2: The suffering of 'Hurt' - Another thing i did, and the real reason i wanted a turn... There might have been a mysterious reappearing or three. I wanted to bring back Kesperan III but the body was missing, so I chose these three. If this is breaking the rules, my turn can be disqualified and use Salmeuk's save
Image 3: The ones who came back Squads status:Blades of Despair: mostly okay?
Knife crushers: Gone?
Ardent Shields: Still away protecting fortress Cryptrush
Last Dragon: Gone?
Flayed Demon: Was missing a captain, gave the command to 'The Master'
I put the two returnees from the spoiler into a new squad that I dubbed the Dark Hegemon
