An eerie silence rolls across the arena. The air is thick with suspense as both fighters lock eyes.

The bell is rung and a flurry of steel clashes follow.

Both fighters lay into each other with heavy blows, each looking harder than the last. Both sustain injuries in the first few seconds.

First Riviere, then Entrails, then Riviere again. Entrails goes on the offensive once more and catches Riviere off-balance. Now on the defensive, Riviere begins giving ground. Entrails lays heavier strikes each time until eventually Rivere's guard is completely worn down. With a slash Entrails cuts into Riviere's foot and brings him to his knees, a stab in the leg and he begins collapsing in pain.

Before Riviere even hits the ground Entrails delivers one final blow to the head of Riviere, decapitating him.

Entrails is the victor of round 1D. Congratulations on a good round. Entrails manager now has 226 points to spend on him.

Taking a short break from the carnage. Will return in two hours or so.

But before I go let's preview our upcoming bout.

Match 1E: Smelly Ant Feet vs. Othmar

Smelly Ant Feet, a massive ant queen whose stature rivals that of Sten but, she is meant for providing drones and soldiers for a hive not fighting. Well she's here now and she is going against Othmar, a human race crusader who is here to purge all the lesser races and prove that man really is superior to all, we'll see if he's right, up next.

It'll be human vs. the giant ant in round 5.

>>160358065
Sensible use of the edition would be plenty to let newcomers know it's happening. "Arena Deathmatch edition" or something like that.

>>160357846

This was fun idea tourney anon. Thanks for doing this.

I can't get my dorfs to cut down trees. I have axes in a stockpile but no one will pick them up and use them, even though I have woodcutting labors enabled. Any tips?

>>160363002
Are they wooden axes? That bug got patched. Only metal axes chop trees now.

>>160363093
That would explain it, thank you

>>160363093
How is it a bug? They use diamonds to cut other diamonds, wood axes are capable of cutting down trees.

We could bet in the form of "manager points"...

>>160363002
try to remove all other labors from a dwarf with the woodcutting labor. You having a military? They might also take your axes. And lastly I am pretty sure you now need a battleaxe, and not a trainingaxe to chop trees.

>>160363378
It makes sense because diamonds are the hardest metal but wood is the softest metal
Use your head

>>160364118
manager points are specifically for the anons that submitted their fighters and are used for upgrading the fighter in between the rounds. I don''t really know how you could bet with them. I am trying to think of way to do this better next time. I want it to be done completely inside the general next time, I know that.

>>160364413
ay you're back

hurry up and post moar fights pls

>Got back home just in time for the tournament

>>160364413

Btw does that armor (leather only) mean stuff like tunics,cloaks and shirts and so on?

>>160364413
the managers could win some extra points for their next contestants. Also you could ask in email for managers to give you a trip so all the planning could be done in this general.
I'm worried that this will result in namefagging, though.

Question: for your scholars to write stuff, do they actually need the reading skill? If they do, how can I train it when I don't have anyone above dabbling?

The arena fills back up after the intermission and the next two fighters make their way to the arena.

Othmar looks to his massive insectoid opponent and smirks. Smelly Ant Feet just shuffles about, clicking, watching.

The bell is rung and the fight is on. Both open up with some swings and chops but, most are blocked on both sides.

The queen takes an opportunity during the stalemate to charge towards her opponent, slamming her body against Othmar and knocking him to the floor.

Othmar rises to his feet and takes a few punches while he regains his balance. Again, SAF tackles Othmar to the floor.

Othmar rises to his feet once more and takes a swing at the queen. It goes wide and SAF delivers a crushing blow to his axe-arm, breaking it.

Othmar, stands his ground and begins fighting hand to hand with SAF. Twice more he is tackled to the ground. SAF rears back for another charge while Othmar reaches out and rakes a piece of the queen's leg sending her to the ground. Things are looking up for Othmar.

The fight rages on with Othmar standing over the queen and the two trading blow after blow. A strike to his shield hand leaves it useless and Othmar starts looking for other means of dealing damage. However, his new methods aren't working as he soon finds himself also on the ground when SAF punches his leg out of place. The queen, now on equal ground begins biting down on the human's face and eventually his leg.

Like a scene out of a dwarven horror story she starts biting and shaking Othmar apart while he struggles in vain. Othmar succumbs to exhaustion however SAF isn't finished.

With her prey incapacitated she removes his helmet and begins beating his head with her shields, mashing it into the arena floor.

She also passes out to exhaustion but, wakes up shortly and finishes the job with a few more blows.

Smelly Ant Feet is the victor of match 1E. Her manager now has 172 points to spend on her.

There is a leather armor option. for leather tunics and stuff, idk, I guess.

>>160366580
I'm worried about name fagging also. I'm trying to think of way of doing this where it can be done easily by another anon and without namefagging, though a trip might still be involved for whoever runs it.

>>160366817
Whenever one of the combatants doesn't have a proper weapon the fights seem to get a lot messier

>>160366817
all of these fights are pretty interesting and exciting. Maybe it has to do with the unorthodox combatants, but I'm really enjoying these battles.

So the Killer Queen advances. that leaves three more fights for the day.

Next is a match I personally have been waiting to see.
Match 1F: Coldsteel vs Mandingo the Elusive

Mandingo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNkwKR04tPQ

He's edgy and he's original. He's Coldsteel he graduated at the top of his class in sekrit ninja school and he's here to kick ass and chew bublegum;), he wears boots made from the skin of his old enemy, Kevin Robinson from school.

Up against him is Mandingo the Elusive, he's crazy as fuck, he's here to collect the scalps of his enemies, and the virginity of the maidens.

O-othmar ;_;

I thought we humans had to stick together, you bastard. Enjoy your racial purity in Valhalla

Both fighters go to their respective corners, awaiting the bell.

Mandingo looks around wild eyed...ready for blood.
Coldsteel just stands there, arms crossed, unimpressed.

**ding**

Mandingo launches towards Coldsteel and misses.

Coldsteel deftly maneuvers and slashes mandingo in the leg taking him down.

One. He slashes his chest tearing a lung open.
Two. He slashes his midsection opening an artery.
Three. He slashes the stomach tearing it open.

As Mandingo passes out Coldsteel teleports behind him and decapitates him in one quick swing.

"Nothin' personnel, kid."

We're down to our final two bouts of the day.

Match 1G: The Purple Menace vs. DEXSTR

The Purple Menace, a plump helmet with something to prove. He used to be a fortress guard till he was abused by his employers and discriminated against. Now he hopes to win glory and recognition in the arena.

Against him is DEXSTR, a young kobold who, in his own words, "just wants to be viable." Maybe he will get his wish, here in the arena.

Its mushroom vs. kobold in round 7

>>160370239

291KB, 294x233px

The leather clad fighters enter the arena and the bell is rung.

Both charge forward but, DEXSTR has speed on his side as he charges in. The lock into a melee and swirl around each other, dodging and blocking in a literal dance of death.

Using superior foot work and swordsmanship, TPM gets a few slashes in on DEXSTR and starts beating him down, slowly.

A slash to DEXSTR's arm leaves it hanging by his side but, then a slash to his left leg takes him to the floor. Now rolling around on the floor dodging with a lame leg, DEXSTR is against the ropes. Using his one good hand he reaches out and smashes TPM's foot with a solid pound.

TPM, not even fazed by this continues his onslaught. He lops off DEXSTR's arm at the elbow and stabs his midsection, revealing his insides. Now sitting on top of his opponent, he delivers the killing blow. A single slash to the head sends the Kobold's lid flying. The Purple Menace is the victor of 1G.

Congratulations TPM, you earned it. TPM's manager now has 232 points to spend on him.

Now we are down to the last match of the evening.

Match 1H: Richie Hinzelmann vs. The Nude Menace

Richie Hinzellmann, he's your average kobold male with average kobold tastes. Nothing really stands out about him. Maybe he will stand out in the arena.

Against him in the north corner is The Nude Menace. A female kobold who was tired of societal norms. Stripping down to nothing and armed with an adamantine shortsword, nothing will get in her way on her quest to slay foes and be exposed while doing so.

>>160372832

**ding**

The bell was rung but, all was quiet. The audience sat on the edge of their seats waiting for either fighter to make a move but, they didnt. They stood there, staring at each other.

Maybe it was something that made them connect, an understanding. They slowly started moving towards each other, then the pace quickened. It soon became evident what was meant to be, cannot be, and one of the two kobolds must kill the other or neither can advance. In another life, maybe.

The two meet in the middle and clash. TNM gets a cut in on Richie's arm however he soon gets the upper hand. He stabs her right leg and takes her to the ground. A few more blows and she passes out. With a quick hand he plunges his dagger into her skull, putting her out of her misery. Richie stands up, the victor. He hangs his head to the cheers of the crowd.

Genned a neat world I think. The western continent's southwest portion is the homeland of the elves and dwarves, and the easten continent is where most of the worlds 200000 goblins dwell. Humans live in the northwest portion of the world primarily but can be found in most other region as well, save for the northeast. The northeast is wholly goblin territory.

Not much room for ocean projects though, just a couple little edge patches, but I used perfect world and made it for adventuring so it was tuned to let the civs mix and do all sorts of shit with lots of terrain variation using PW maps that looked pretty.

Also the world where I found that 4k elf army on the move, up in the chunk of cities in the top right.

i want to get into this game but i find it rather confusing.

I can't even read this map. It is an eyesore if anything.

You don't need to grasp every single detail to get a fort up and running. Personally I like to rely on merchants to supply me with certain materials that I am too lazy to figure out how to make. Keep at it anon, it's a really fun game.

>>160391462

exactly. i was looking into this stonesense mod that turns the game into an isometric "3d" view and it looks rather interesting.

That is a bit of grassland and forest surrounded by ocean, some frozen ocean at the top, mountains from the lower middle running north, the omega symbols are dwarven hillocks and fortresses, the capital pi and little underlined o in purple are goblin pits and dark fortresses, the mu, weird i, and paragraph symbols are elf forest retreats, the ae and AE and triple bar/= signs are human hamlets, the # near them are large towns, the * and + are smaller towns, there are roads linking several of them, the dark and light blue lines are rivers, the brown n's are badlands, the grey and red ~ and double tilde are deserts, the little grey ^ is a mountain peak, a red one is a volcano, the yellow mountain range is a good aligned area, unicorns and such faggotry, purple areas and purple mountains would be evil, blood rain and zombies, also the light blue V and check symbols up near the badlands and human towns are low savagery I think, but I might be wrong there, savagery changes stuff like giant animals, ordinary wildlife and such, oh and the 0 with the slash near the # is a tomb with mummies and loot for adventuring.

So my Captain of the guard went into a mood, and he's demanding shells, but I'm not sure how to harvest them.

There weren't really any tight fights in my opinion. S.A.F. vs Othmar looked close because I was uncertain about who would get up first to kill the other. Entrails vs Riviere was also close in the beginning because both were evenly matched.

Update: Almost ready to start round two, the only character updates I'm missing are Sten and Coldsteel. If they aren't updated by tomorrow I will be counting them as forfeit and their challengers will advance via no contest.

>>160414902
just based on reading the pre fight information, Riviere vs Entrails did look like the most even. 2 humans with the same weapon, and similar stats.

There are no map-specific tilesets, another tileset would leave him as confused as he is now looking at the map.

Regardless, even a clinically retarded person should have the cognitive abilities to recognize this as a map with blue as water, green as vegetation, and possibly yellow as deserts/gray as mountains.

>>160417031
And I forgot; the critical information here is that there is no critical information - especially for beginners, the map shown during world generation has no meaning. Only on the embark screen will it become possibly interesting. At that point you are provided with more information.

I'm sure you'll have time. Tourneyanon gave us 2 days.

Might I suggest that if we keep with the public google doc, which does seem to be working, we don't update changes to the fighters until after each fight? That way each manager has last fight's info to go on when spending points.
Allows for sneaky changing around of equipment/skills.

>>160430239
Pick one up in a tavern. Alternatively, if your home civ has any one-piece instruments that are made from bone you may be able to make one. I'm not certain of that, but since bonecrafting went in for adventurers it seems likely.

Not sure if anyone remembers but yesterday I took a challenge to make a fortress with the primary entrance being a huge serpents mouth that can spit fire.

Still planning it, I'll first have to get this fortress self sufficient (two towers nearby, hoping to catch some zambies for ++decorations++) and then construction can begin.

Want to make the teeth not look derpy, which is hard when working with square tiles. Odds are this thing is going to be huge, going to build an open mouth kind of jutting from the earth surrounding this hill here, and then at the pull of a lever Lava will pour out of the top of the mouth into the fortress sacrificing any and all members to the glory of Armok. Once the fortress is filled, the lava will spill out across the land.

The power for the lava pumps has to be produced independently of dwarves, so that as they all die the lava will flow eternally..

Hmm. More problems to solve.

More as it happens.

Makes sense. I think a lot of the stuff is stored at civ level, and set when the civ is first created.

Newfag question:

I can't move artifacts to my trade depot, are you not meant to sell them?

>>160457437
its gonna take like years probably.

>>160457519
cant by now

>>160457519
Nope. Artifacts are just too SPECIAL for your fort to part with them.
Next update, likely arriving before summer 2017, will add a lot of new shit related to artifacts. Selling may or may not be part of that. For now, though, they're only for hoarding.

>>160457131
why vermin senpaitach

>>160457519
You must HOARD THEM JEALOUSLY

But in all honesty you probably don't want to sell it anyway. Pretty much any artifact has a practical use for morale- even an artifact toy boat will give the kid playing with it mad good thoughts.

any players of the game welcome join us

I'm trying to mod entity_default, to give goblins some more entity positions, to make them playable in dwarf mode. Can't build a military without appointing militia captains.
Problem is, this is making worldgen crash. The last thing I can see is "Placing civilizations (0)".
I've made other raw changes, but the thing causing the crash is replacing
>[VARIABLE_POSITIONS:ALL]
>[SITE_VARIABLE_POSITIONS:ALL]
under
>[ENTITY:EVIL]
with this list:
>http://pastebin.com/bgfcxELu
Reverting this change makes worldgen run smoothly.

What am I doing wrong?

Did you know you can hold a dagger and shoot a crossbow at the same time? Because this fighting style is rapidly turning out to he the most fun I've played.

>>160465628
Never mind, figured it out. ;)

Goblins live in dark fortresses, which means they can't have more than one civ position with [CHAT_WORTHY]. Yeah, that makes sense.

So who's ready for more bloodshed. It's time to commence round 2 of the /dfg/ Tournament. Let's begin.

Match 2A: Esquies Drath vs. Sten

We learned last match that Esquies seeks glory in the arena and he got the glory of a victory over a massive elephant man, curiously he is now sporting a pair of grey leather boots along with some other changes to his attire. Hopefully those will help him in his battle against...

...Sten. He's mean and he's got a big axe. Armor won't stop him as he has shown by pulping the skull of his last opponent through her copper helmet. Let's see if his strength and size will carry him to another victory, in tonight's matchup.

>>160467436
Sten is gonna win

I like how this world turned out. To the north are two great human city-states, one ruled by mortals and the other by a vampire queen. The eastern mountains are controlled by the dwarves, and the Elves have a single forest retreat that houses half their population, the rest having been assimilated into other cultures. the middle is a trackless wasteland of empty plains inhabited by a sparse population of rugged frontiersmen and bandit clans. And finally to the south, there is a great demon prince and his army of goblins. Those few human nations who live under its shadow can only pray that they do not become another in a long list of exterminated peoples.

**Ding**

The fighters rush towards each other and start swinging. The fighters are determined and neither of their swings seem to be connecting. Sten lays a blow to Esquies' armor but it glances off.

Taking a step back, Sten employs a tactic we've seen in the past. He charges for his opponent but, like last time his opponent dodges. Rather than charge again Sten swings and catches Esquies in the hand.

Esquies retaliates but, his shot goes wide. Sten takes the opportunity and swings at his opponents leg. A solid hit and Esquies falls to the ground.

Esquies lashes out with his sword but, each shot is deflected easily by his towering foe while he is sent scrambling around the arena. A bone shattering strike to his other leg sends him into a state of shock.

Then, like a headsman at an executution, Sten swiftly decapitates his fallen foe. He stamps and bellows to the roar of the crowd.

>>160468590
Oh, and I forgot to mention that the whole continent appears to be cut off from the rest of the world due to a cursed ocean that would dissuade all but the bravest of merchant fleets.

Wow, what a bloody start. Let's hope the fights are all like that one.

Match 2B: The Jumping Dude vs. Entrails

The Jumping Dude miraculously survived his last encounter with a turtle by bashing his opponent repeatedly until blood loss, maybe luck will stay on his side as he goes up against Entrails. A man on a quest to take down the demons of the tournament. He brutally decapitated his opponent in his last match after a good fight, let's see if he can continue on his journey.

Wonder if TJD is big enough to wrestle Gatsu. I mean Entrails. What kind of size difference is wrestling effective within?

>>160469365
My money is on the human. My heart is with the spider.

>>160471214
You can interrupt strikes etc, but disabling limbs and ruining joints etc. is almost impossible on a much larger target without herculean strength.

Trying to reclaim a fortress in the moutains and theres no trees, any ideas on how i can get sustainable fuel for my fortress.

>>160471465
Caverns are your best bet. Otherwise, just put in the order for lots of wood every year when the wagons arrive.

>>160471465
Request max quantity of every kind of wood from the liaison. Dive for magma early. Worldgen forts often have magma facilities already, so it may be less of an issue than you expect.

The fighters make their way to the arena.

Entrails: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IwRkFyUu60

The crowd is on the edge of their seat, expecting to see a repeated dance of death like the last time.

**ding**

Both fighters make the launch and meet, their blades flurrying. Dodging and parrying, neither seems to have an upper hand then Entrails stabs with his sword and takes off one of TJD's hands with a lucky hit.

Unfazed, TJD slashes with his dagger connecting once and then connecting twice, taking off Entrails' left arm at the elbow. Entrails charges for his opponent but, TJD jumps away.

The melee continues but, it soon becomes quite clear that TJD has the upper hand now. Entrails swings his sword and is blocked, TJD answers back with his own slash that cuts Entrail's sword hand to the bone and he drops his sword.

His opponent still standing after losing a hand and a half, TJD charges at his opponent but, to little avail. He is knocked backwards. This does little to stop the little spider as he reaches out and stabs Entrails in the skull, chipping it.

Entrails stands tall despite his wounds. TJD, still on the ground slashes Entrails in the leg, finally taking him to his knees. TJD stands up and swings taking off Entrails' other arm.

Now missing both arms at just below the elbow and on his knees, Entrails can do little to stop his opponent and his blue dagger. A slash to what's left of his left arm takes it off at the shoulder and a tearing stab to the gut leaves him retching on the arena floor.

Entrails, barely clinging to life looks at his opponent who responds by punching his right eye out then strikes his mouth with his dagger.

Entrails recoils, smiles, mutters something, then collapses to the floor. Dead.

Congratulations The Jumping Dude. The Jumping Dude's manager now has 262 points to spend on him.

We're on a roll tonight with these bouts. Two down. Two more to go.

Match 2C: Smelly Ant Feet vs. Coldsteel

Smelly Ant Feet devoured and pummeled her opponent in yesterday's fight against Othmar but, will she be able to do the same to the... Edgehog. Like lighting Coldsteel moved in and finished off his opponent in last nights match that lasted no more than a few seconds, can he show those same skills tonight, let's find out.

>>160472957
Well, there's no telling where in the fort it is, or what kind of FB it is. You'll have to find it eventually, and it may find you first. Best bet is to get a soldier equipped asap, with gear left in the trade depot if possible, and get scouting so you can figure out your next move. Worst case scenario is your embark party gets wiped, but if it's going to happen it will probably happen anyway. Do it first season so if that does happen you know what to prepare for on the next try.

>>160473347
Ant is strong

Ant is brave
