Dark fortresses.
« on: February 25, 2012, 04:41:12 pm »
I traveled to where they are on map. 3x3 region squares of nothing special.
Is it possible to visit them in adventure mode?

There is a finely-engraved image of Ascimator on the wall. Ascimator is slapping himself in the face. The artwork relates to the loss of the only anvil in Perplextombs in the late winter of 6.

no, just like mountain halls and tree cities, you can't visit them in this version

I do notice that inside the goblin civ's territory, you'll get goblin ambushes, though. But, keep in mind that their territory is WAY bigger than just the dark fortress on the map, usually.

But I assume, just like with dwarven mountain halls and elven retreats,
you can get goblin settlements to appear for your adventurer, if before world creation you change the default settlement type of goblins from dark forress to city

That's controlled by the [LOCAL_BANDITRY] tag, add it to every civ and relish in the carnage!

Ooh :D... Thank you for the tip! I'll have to try that sometime. Maybe that'll make up for having so many werebeast quests, rather than roaming bandits...

i'm testing goblins living in caves.  as i have found a cobold cave that links to the caverns, i am really looking forward to finding an actual goblin cave and seeing how they worked out.

i think they may all be dead, though.  too many wars against the bastard elves, who would let their giant dingos eat my snatched children.  that is no lie, i'll screencap the battle reports in legends.

and invincible dwarven armies with jabberrers, and humans raiding with poler bears.
