Most dangerous site you've ever seen?
« on: May 17, 2009, 10:05:11 am »
For me, the one i just embarked on has 6+ pages of carp, milkfish, gar, hippos and alligators...If I live, I shall bring invasions to their knees in the hippo pit.

Edit: And a herd of meat and fat mines Elephants just wandered onto the map! This shall be epic!

231. I am not allowed to do anything that would make a Sith Lord cry.
240. Any character with more than three skills specializing in chainsaw is vetoed.

Most dangerouse for me was several pages of zombie and skeletal carp and other fish, That could run outside of the water, oh the horror.

Nano Fortress on an undead surface magma pipe?


Wait, hold on, I got a better one. If danger is directly proportional to how fast you lose, this one probably wins.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

I don't think that qualifies...might have been avoided with an embark site that was a bit off from that.

Byakugan: okay, then embark on a site that's so hot that everything immediately combusts. For bonus points, bring plenty of booze.

What size is your embark?

I think measuring it from the units menu is not overly accurate - an open UG pool or river could rocket that reading.  But 6 pages is impressive, by any count.

Most dangerous? I embarked in a mix good/evil area with a cave and a few good features.

Ended up with a pair of skeletal trolls in the cave and a skeletal titan standing outside.

He ran right over and ate me. It was certainly dangerous.
