I am not ready for your magma yet so I shall be forced to kill my own peasant. The alchemist has Three vials left. Well chaps I think it is time to expand this little party to the great outdoors, a fantasizing place to be sure, any time a dwarf with a "outdoor job" including the axeman with wood cutting, a door appears to a new part of the play space as per The players guild to TACTICUS chapter: resources, Section: how to get them. The outdoors! truly my combo of dwarfs shall thrive. Three unknown critter tokens also come with the out doors, if a critter token is walked next to a random creature appears! quite fascinating really.

Not a bad place, a small scattering of trees but otherwise grassland. I shall move out my Dwarfs to it.

Hmm... I will then summon a miner because "Wood! why when you can have stones!" and the miner will promptly mine down 1z level.

Can you elaborate on that rule and the skills of miners? In any case my axe man will chop down a tree and my herbalist will gather... [rolls]2[/rolls] Two herbs.

A herbalist can gather 1d3*(lvl) herbs per turn. Then a d6 is rolled for each one, food on 1-4, poison on a 5, healing on a 6. all herbs fall under these categorys, generally things that are harmful fall under poison, things that are magically helpful fall under healing, and the rest fall under food. A herbalist can add or take away their level -1 from this roll.[rolls]5[/rolls][rolls]5[/rolls] I get two poison how lucky! Since I am looking for acid which is not a normal type of poison i need to roll a 5-6 to get it other wises it is only poison. [rolls]2[/rolls][rolls]5[/rolls] So i get one acid and one poison both are level one, if you have a higher level gatherer you can get plants that are up to there level. but mine is only level one. So I get one poison and one acid. All rules are from The players guild to TACTICUS chapter: resources, Section: how to get them.

My alchemist shall lock the doors now.

Once again, I encourage any colour corrections, although it is still quite optional.

If anyone wants the program I am using for this, I could upload a .zip for them.

[Criptfeind]

A small thing is that my axe man is red not brown.

[ein]

Upload the zip. It will make life easier.

[Criptfeind]

Eh what?

[qwertyuiopas]

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ny1ojt3olff

It contains:

• The program itself
• The program's source
• The current game of tacticus(with axeman colour fix)
• Two fonts. One is DF's, copied from back when it was a .bmp, and my font, though it's still a work in progress. It reads "curses_640x300.bmp", and I renamed DF's to "curses_640x300_old.bmp", since I used to use it, until the more recent effort.

Controls are somewhat complex...

Spoiler: controls (click to show/hide)

L: load
S: save
Shift: show select character window
Control+Shift: show colour selection
Left click: Draw current character in current colour.
Left click with character select: select character
Left click with oclour select: select colour
Right click: Copy character and colour(doesn't work on character or colour select)
Z+left click: Only draw character(leaving colour unaffected)
Control+left click: Only draw colour, leaving character unaffected
Control+Z: Show swap space(Basically a place to put commonly used characters)
Control+Z+click: Copy(right click) or draw(left click) to swap space
F+Left click: Flood-fill with current character
Arrow keys: Add a row/column to the side pointed to by the arrow key
Space+Arrow keys: Remove a row/column from the side pointed to by the arrow key
Escape: Quit (All other standard windows methods work as well)

Click can be optionally replaced by click and drag, dragging nearly acts like clicking.

Images are just screenshots, alt+print screen will just copy the current window(generic windows feature)

The source code is for windows+MinGW, and expects MinGW to be in the path. Then you can compile with c.bat (Much more friendly than a makefile, in my opinion, although it is at the cost of flexibility). I don't reccomend it, though, since the code is just plain ugly.

Referencing the book "Magma and The You: A Guide to FUN" I notice that any magma pipe must always contain a minimum of 3 imps and 1 magma man. I shall place these units in their appropriate positions.

"MWAHAHAHAHAAA-gack-MWAHAHAHAHAAA" My lich moves northwest. My skeleton attacks the imp, the imp throws fire, (3)but misses, the skeleton swings at the imp, (6)and wounds the imp, the imp claws the skeleton, (6) The skeleton crumbles. Two of my skeletons move north.
My version of 'Duck and Cover' implies that skeletons moving through radioactivity absorb the radioactivity, causing the skeleton to gain a radiation poisoning attack but rendering the tile non-radioactive. But I remember hearing of that ruling being revised in the newer edditions...

The rule was that if someone has had a woodcutter migrate in and there is no miner then a miner with an equal skill level will spawn because the only place for a dwarf should be underground. After all the only thing more elven then not having a miner but still having a woodcutter is if you also had no plan to cut trees down.
