Goblin Blood Snow
« on: March 22, 2012, 01:15:55 am »

I recently embarked on an evil site, and just after beginning to construct my contraptions it was snowing goblin blood snow... Funny, in another game I got vile mucus raining down on my dwarves.
What kind of rain did you have in your games?

We must figure out a way to mod in blood snowball fights. And possibly blood igloos.

I've got 'execrated ash' clouds. Haven't found out what it does yet, only a small patch of my map is evil.
Some wild boars passed through it, and nothing happened.

What does execrated mean? Can't find a translation in online dictionary. My old Greek does not help either ex=out e(u)=good kradzein=govern (think demo-cracy)

Excrete:

Quote
to separate and eliminate from an organic body; separate and expel from the blood or tissues, as waste or harmful matter.

Honestly, we probably don't want to know what the source of the ash clouds are. But I'm sure we can make some educated guesses.

Well, I know what excrete means.

But this ash is 'execrated'

When you can't find the root, look for compounds.

Execration as per a web dictionary.

Looks like it means it causes horrible curses!

Watch the ash carefully!

Ah. Latin roots, not Greek. Thought down the wrong path there then. I'll be sure to keep an eye on that ash.
