Wearing platemail and zweihander and trying to balance on a foot-wide beam a hundred feet of the ground while giant axes swing back and forth across my path... then hit in the back by a lightning bolt thrown by some lizard dude.

Hmm... I might look at trying to mod in Kreen, at least. That sounds fun.

Would Halflings be the only forest-specific race?

Can you make monsters that spawn additional monsters? Having a silt horror make little tentacles could get interesting.

And I imagine the Dark Sun style ghosts will be easier to put in once we get Night Creatures. But yeah, I'd love to see this come about so I'll poke around at making monsters at least. Mekillots are adorable and will have to be included.

Oh, I imagine the other big thing in Dark Sun, trading and caravans, won't be able to be fully fleshed out for a while. Not exactly sure you can really include the fullness of Sorcerer-Kings yet, either.

Fought a kelbi. Took me a really long time to kill it and when it was all done, I had 50 hooves. Dunno if that's the way it's supposed to go. :p

Haven't found any monsters yet T_T

At the level you are when you run into Blink Frogs, they are very dangerous and never to be underestimated : they hit your character very hard, and they have enough EV to be very difficult to hit, when they just don't blink away from you while another Blink Frog take his place to finish you.
The answer to Blink Frogs and The Hive is to worship Chei. Not that it helps with much else, but still.

Survivors of Ragnarok alpha. Don't really know much about it and the alpha doesn't really seem to be anything, but there's another pre-release mining game to watch.

Bumping since we've already discussed diseases, but I think the enhancements made in animal farming are a good way to introduce parasites. Raising animals in poor conditions (such as being too cramped or being exposed to wild animals) and who do not have a caretaker could get parasites (some detectable, some not) and that could carry into their products and have a whole host (hehe) of effects on the dwarves. Utter sickness and even complete personality shifts in dwarves would give more work for doctors, too.

Or at least die more gloriously.

I'd like to see some more!

Same character, less underground.

Muldoon's going to get cabin fever, that much I can tell you.

I say tuff it out.

I don't think anyone knows what Muldoon is a direct reference to... :p

A kobold thief almost got into the fort today.  By almost I mean it got noticed by the dogs and raptors.  He managed to stab two of the dogs, but when the raptors entered the fray he was torn to shreds, I'm glad they're on our side.

Today could be the best or worst day in our outposts history.  Today we trained our first war velociraptor.  They already tore a kobobld apart before being trained for war so I'm not too sure it's a safe idea to make them better at killing things.  Although the benefits of being able to have such monsters fight side by side with our military is too good to pass up.  I can only hope they don't turn on us.

Clever girl.
That's my line!

Engraved on the wall is a superiorly designed image of Stlididraymin the kobold and 'Kobaldbane' Torchletter the dwarf by Muthkat Iderith. 'Kobaldbane' Torchletter is striking down Stildodraymin. The artwork relates to the killing of the kobold Stlididraymin by the dwarf 'Kobaldbane' Torchletter with an ashen shield in Lanceamaze in the late winter of 1051 during the Third Attempted Theft at Lanceamaze.
