Let's Play?
« on: October 29, 2013, 05:59:35 am »

I generated a new world, chose a "Sinister" area and embarked. To my surprise, the dwarfs called the place "Boatmurdered".

You have arrived. After a journey from the Mountainhomes into the forbidding wilderness beyond, your harsh trek has finally ended. Your party of seven is to make an outpost for the glory of all of Onget Mus'd. There are almost no supplies left, but with stout labor comes sustenance. Whether by bolt, plow or hook, provide for your dwarves. You are expecting a supply caravan just before winter entombs you, but it is spring now. Enough time to delve secure lodgings, ere the dingoes get hungry. A new chapter of dwarven history begins here at this place, Koganusn "Boatmurdered". Strike the earth!

Also, if you want in on this, please comment below.

This is definitely an omen of some sort - not only did it randomly select a significant name, but the original Boatmurdered was also randomly named (since the 2D versions didn't allow you to customize the fortress name during embark).

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

We're ready, the better question is are you?

Are you a bad enough dude to create a spiritual successor to Boatmurdered?

Hehe, that reminds me of the one test-fort I had, which was also randomly named with Boatmurdered. Too bad it was with unfinished raws of a mod, just for making a quick test of some reactions, otherwise I might have done a succession fort with it.

Here is to Boatmurdered (and hopefully to you not getting slaughtered by burning elephants.) :)

So I copied the region file then started playing. Immediately lose a cat to undead snakes. Although losing a cat wasn't too much of an issue, the fact that it was reanimated caused !Fun! to be had. Ended with the death of four dwarves from one undead cat.
