Deadly Dust everywhere
« on: October 26, 2013, 03:48:32 am »
So I've modded goblins to be playable and have cities. I decide to walk to this city the goblins have. When I get there the entire city is fighting each other because they are all different races from kidnapping or something like that. However that isn't the most interesting thing. There is paralysis-causing deadly dust popping up everywhere. I know that goblins civs can have Clowns for leaders and that they can use deadly dust attacks, but how can this one have it everywhere in the city?

That's because it's not deadly dust from creatures, but syndrome-bearing clouds typical of the evil biomes in which goblins build their cities.

As mentioned in the previous turn, the most exciting field of battle this year will be in the Arstotzkan capitol, with plenty of close-quarter fighting and siege warfare.  Arstotzka, accordingly, spent their design phase developing a high-altitude tactical bomber.

Ah, that would explain it. Especially because it didn't look like it was in that biome due to there being mud and things everywhere.

Also I'm surprised they were fighting each other, typically civilizations that fall to goblins tend to get along fairly well with them. Are you sure they weren't fighting undead or something?

No, I'm pretty sure they're fighting each other.

If you ever get bored, you have an arena to go spectate now.

Or you can just slaughter them all! BUTCHER THE GOBLINS!

Coldmonkey: "The idea that having flaming tools and introducing them to the intimate workings of someone you don't get along with is much too human for these forums. I mean, it's not really that hard, is it? Anyone can wield a torch, it doesn't prove anything. Wearing flaming clothes on the other hand, or better yet, wearing nothing at all and being on fire... that is the essence of dwarfish behavior."
