You're welcome, I had to google an authentic DOS VGA font and spend two maybe three whole minutes in Ms paint to shit out that meme I'm surprised I even got the opportunity to use.

In all seriousness, the hype is pretty much dead at this point since the tourney's been dragged out for so long. But some closure would be appreciated nonetheless.

Sorry, tourneyanon, you knew the risks when you took the job. It's not like we're wishing death on you or anything like that, we just assume the worst when our need for instant gratification goes unindulged. Besides, if you buy into the meme magic shit, just keep repeating that meme magic doesn't real until you meme it into reality. Then you'll be effectively immune to rectal cancer.

Is there a way to efficiently capture animals? I try placing cage traps all over the place but i can't catch anything,

>>186337471
I'm genuinely curious what was your plan...

First they came for tourneyanon, and I did not speak out, because I didn't care about the tournament.

Then they came for the koboldfags, and I did not speak out, because I was not a koboldfag.

And when they came for the frogposters, I did not speak out, because I was not a frogposter.

Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak.

>>186342135
/dfg/ would be a better place without all four of these.
Prove me wrong.

>>186341874
You could try making a wall/trench to force the animals through a small area with cage traps.

>>186342283
I'll have you know I made that shitty adventure mode roll chart a few days ago. Someone even reposted it.

I know I would have. I don't ever not take an anvil unless I'm doing a challenge game. I'm not sure how you're supposed to find it hard to afford, either. Maybe if you're taking a full set of steel munitions and a bunch of livestock, plus enough food and drink to last a year? I dunno, it just seems to me like having difficulty affording an anvil on embark means you're wasting your points somewhere.

No one told me necromancer towers had five hundred quadrillion books how am i supposed to find the one that makes me a necromancer?

It's ok, he just got butchered by a goblin warlord. It is sad but not unexpected.

Why do Dwarves treat their clothes like teenage girls do? Why do they claim food and store it in their rooms until it rots? How did that bracelet get on the roof?

Has anyone considered that once there are quests to return or steal artifacts companions won't be a liability because they will no longer be able to steal the credit like in slaying quests, since even if they kill a bunch of dudes you still get the praise so long as you're the one handing the quest giver the thing? I'm looking forward to actually bringing dudes along for once.

Oh of course. They'll still steal credit for kills but I like to think of that as part of their personality.
Also I'll be bringing loads along because I don't want to miss out on all the delicious "I was an agent all along!" campsite backstabbing.

>>186370164
Even if you do everything 100% correctly you still might not win. That thing didn't clear out a fortress all by itself by being weak and easy to kill, after all.

>>186370023
I think certain things should be close to impossible to kill even with perfect demigod adventurers, at least in the current game. Forgotten Beasts are like Nature Deities, and mortal beings shouldn't really be able to kill them, even under the best circumstances.

what's the best way to spread the news that you're a badass that kills titans? I don't want to visit every single hamlet.

>>186373918
the easiest way is through storytelling.

that way you don't have to go through the extremely unituitive rumour list. instead, you can just pick a site, and then go to the bottom of the event list for that site.

hopefully toady eventually fixes the rumour list by adding more searchable keywords, but until then, storytelling is the best way to go.

There's a reason for your civilization's downfall, and you won't let it happen again.

>>186418514
Crops and animals have all been lost. You have to re-domesticate everything if you want to farm instead of just fishing, hunting, and gathering. Bonus: Your dwarves are all completely unskilled peasants who escaped the destruction of their hillocks. Embark with nothing but an axe.

I have it on good authority that Toady spends most of the day sorting fire-hot cheetohs into piles based on their degree of variance from perfect radial symmetry. Then he eats the most symmetrical pile and ships the rest back to the manufacturer as "defective products" with meticulous measurements to back up his claim. Then he naps. Then he plays Dark Souls for a while. And then he works on DF if he isn't feeling too tired.

When Demigods get overhauled to be related to worldgen myths then maybe you'd be on equal footing. Or when artifacts are reworked with the magic patch (~2035). It doesn't seem right to me that a peasant can wrestle something deific into submission with enough training and no outside help.

Well suppose I should have expected it, had the same message in the first year when two undead appeared on the world border and immediately ducked out, was also only getting hematite on the first few layers, so I guess I fucked up on the deep ores thing so while I was swimming in iron had nothing else. I feel like I should learn how to properly fortify stuff at this point so that the next time sixty zombies and three necromancers come I have some possibility of survival. Any suggestions for a novice dwarf a few forts in anons?

Pls no. Eventually when we get all this plane shifting stuff and we can actually come into contact with genned Gods or their avatars we'll probably be able to kill them too which will be annoying.

But that's the point of legendary heroes who rise from nothing. They start out as average people and then circumstances force them to training montage into coolguys who doesnt afraid of anything.

>>186459671
I just think that picking peasant should lock you into "mundane" mode, like you can gather a band of warriors, deal with goblins and whatnot and contribute to your civ or start your own. Killing Forgotten Beasts and Demons should be reserved for Demigods in the Age of Legends.

>>186459982
>restrictions
>in an ASCII game where imagination is everything

pls no

just roleplay if you want to do it like that.

>>186460093
I can't quite articulate what I mean because "He has a poor linguistic sense", but it's not a restriction. Like if your decked out peasant to elite warrior human came across a Forgotten Beast you can still try but you'd get your shit kicked in 9999/10000 times. You might with a large army be able to repel a Titan from attacking your homestead but probably with massive casualties. The only way mundane individuals should be able to deal with supernatural threats is if they come armed with divine gear from the artifact overhaul, or get really lucky. But of course everyone is free to enjoy what they want.

>>186459684
Meant more in the way of traps and fortifications for someone who has a handle on the basics but isn't ready for flood chambers and atom smashers.

>>186460474
Marksdwarves are really handy to have but are really quirky to set up without live training, and you need to have perfectly sealed areas with fortifications to stop them charging out. Generally the most interesting way to deal with sieges is to split up your invasion with bridges and let your melee military deal with it hand to hand with favourable numbers, but that's just personal opinion. Eventually you won't need to bother, a squad of 10 legendary dwarves in steel can comfortably deal with 100+ sieges provided there aren't too many bowgoblins. Cage traps are fun to mess around with until you see how broken they are though, and prisoners help speed up the training process.

>>186460408
That just sounds like an unnecessary restriction. The way you describe it almost sounds like putting a skill cap on peasant characters' skills, or giving them some sort of negative attribute modifier that puts them at a major disadvantage. I personally think that that is a bad idea.
The whole point of playing as a peasant character is to have more challenge and for there to be more of an uphill climb before you reach legendary status, while heroes and demigods have respectively shorter climbs. (These climbs are negated by skill grinding, but I digress.)
If you make it impossible for peasants to become truly legendary, then what's the point of playing as a peasant?

>>186460408
I just wish some artifacts did something magical on top already. Update when?

>>186467365
December...
2025.

>>186467129
For roleplay reasons. Toady has already said that eventually Demigods will be rolled in with worldgen myth gods and have appropriate spheres, powers and weaknesses which will differentiate them anyway. Why should Kadol McNormal be able to hit the same strength limit as the Demigod avatar of Fortresses, War and Iron? The way peasants are now relative to demigods is purely coincidence.

Conversely, looking at a random dwarf you don't even know the labours for and seeing him with exceptional/masterwork clothing in every part is a nice feel, especially when everything is done by orders and no manual jobs.

BREAKING DWARF NEWS ON DFN.

LOCAL DWARVEN FORT BOARBOATS WAS ATTACKED THIS EVENING WHILE CONDUCTING TRADE BUISINESS WITH THE UNTAMED IRONS EMPIRE WHEN A BRONZE COLOSSUS ARRIVED ON SCENE AND MADE ITS WAY TO THE FORT

IN A SHOW OF BRAVERY THOSE DWARVES CURRENTLY HAULING STATUES TO THE DEPO DROPPED THEIR GOODS AND RUSHED THE MONSTER, WHO HAD CHOSEN TO FIGHT WITH A DOG BONE BRACELET, AND PROCEEDED TO FIGHT OUTSIDE THE FORT.

THOUGH TRAGICALLY LIVES WERE LOST, INCLUDING THE MANY CIVILIANS, THEIR ACTIONS BOUGHT ENOUGH TIME FOR THE MILITIA TO ARRIVE. THOUGH MORE WERE LOST IN THE FOLLOWING MILITARY CONFLICT, THE BRONZE COLOSSUS WAS BROUGHT LOW BY WRESTLING AXEDWARF VUTOK ALZATRITH, WHO CLEAVED THE MONSTER IN TWO AND CARVED HIS HUSK IN TO THE IMAGE OF A BAND OF COATIS. THOUGH THE LOSSES WERE HIGH, THE FORT WAS PRESERVED, AND VUTOK "BRONZESLAYER" ALZATRITH HAS BEEN APPOINTED CAPTAIN OF THE GUARD.

forgive the autism, it was my first bronze colossus fight and I thought I was a goner.

>>186473778
>go to hell
I'm an ex-Jehovah's Witness. Been there, done that.

Is there a way to make Dwarves care about custom stockpiles?
I had a second wood furnace by my metal forge and not a single dwarf ever put charcoal down to the stockpile right next to it, nor did they put the gelena in the smeltable ore stockpile or the resulting lead and silver in the custom metal stockpile.

I assume they were dumping it in my other stockpiles in the upper floors

>>186474680
The main thing is to disable the item you want from the general stockpile, dwarves won't move it from the existing pile to the new custom pile to redistribute if the item is allowed where it is.

>>186474680
Also if you need something in particular moving quick then you can burrow a hauler so they can only access the things you need moving. I do this to help with cluttered smelters and woodburners. Just remember to unburrow them so they don't starve to death, or make a custom burrow that includes the food/drink stockpile and a table and chair along with the workspace.

>>186474906
I wish there was an option to prioritise certain piles over others.

for example, to make a tavern function properly, you need a booze stockpile inside the tavern. however, it's usually not viable to keep all booze in the tavern pile, you need a bigger main pile somewhere else. and when you have another pile, there's no guarantee that they'll put booze in the tavern pile.

in this case, it would be useful to prioritise the tavern pile. if there's empty room in it, they put the booze there until it's full, and when it's full, they put it in the other pile.

>>186476091
There's always cheeky work arounds. Again, for example if you make a custom stock pile for one specific type of beer in your tavern then disable all that type in your main pile then eventually dwarves will move the stuff from the existing stockpile and every new unit will go straight to the tavern.

I think everything in DF should be malleable in some regard. Overcoming the impossible is a common fantasy trope and isn't really out of place in DF despite its adherence to the natural, mundane, realistic side of survival.

Personally I'd like all the goblin, demon evil eyestalk plants to come straight out of hell and be some sort of spreading creep that brought the evil haunted areas with it and had some sort of slayable source or way to push it back.
I'd like if it the Titans were some personified force of nature and physically effected the terrain around them and murdering them had some sort of auxiliary effect i.e. area is no longer haunted, the storms clear, this tropic region is no longer frozen or on fire. Maybe they auto-drop an artifact upon death.

It would be probably more appropriate if Gods & Forces had some kind of champion or avatar they spoke through that could be killed and that would effect some kingdom someway.

>>186476091
>>186476198
Thanks, still rattling my brain through this game the hard way. Lot of people starved to death and I had to take a long snack break.

>>186476437
The point is to never make the same mistake twice, then you'll be able to have a self sustaining fortress after a couple of hours of play in mostly sealed conditions. Coming up with shit workarounds like having only a couple of alcohol types for your tavern is half the fun of playing.

I'm trying to figure out a creative idea for a Fortress Entrance, I want that shit to be cool looking but not a lot of sites don't lend themselves easily to any sort of aesthetic design.

Is there really any point of doing anything other than locking your dorfs up with a 11x11 farm?

Not really.

Is there any advantage to embarking in a clay-heavy area?
