Dig a 10x10 cave-in to drop 40 Z-levels of stone into the magma, therein driving 40 Z-Levels of magma up towards the surface.

Tell my grandchildren that the Day of Prophecy has arrived and look for a computer backwards compatible with DF.

(Yes, I'm getting impatient. Sue me.)

Step 1: Mod in Ivory as a stone type.
Step 2: Mod Elephants to drop ivory when butchered
Step 3: Tame elephants, Breed elephants
Step 4: Build an Ivory Tower
Step 5: Do SCIENCE in Ivory Tower to find what changed.
Because seriously, doing DF science in an ivory tower is full of win on so many levels. :D

I'll play around with it for an hour or two and then go back to the previous release until utilities like Dwarf Therapist work on the new release.

This!   :)

Good news! :D


As for myself, I'm probably going to have a whole lot of Fun.

Genetic experiments. Seriously. I would love to see a fort filled with redhead dwarfs. Also, cream my pants. And then cream then again when I realize Toady is far from done.

Sometimes, when my Dorfs are exceptionally stupid again, I wonder what exactly the [INTELLIGENT]-tag does.

Actually, aren't ivory and antlers actually enabled in this release with the body updates?

Perhaps merely a reaction to turn ivory to blocks is all you need.

Keep playing 40d until the bugs are fixed, RantingRodent updates his wonderful tileset, and Dwarf Therapist works.

After that, mess around in the arena until a kangaroo can disembowel a dwarf with one kick.

That's the great thing about this forum. We can derail any discussion into any other topic.
It's not an embark so much as seven dwarves having a simultaneous strange mood and going off to build an artifact fortress that menaces with spikes of awesome and hanging rings of death.

New plan - try out purring maggots. Toady has FINALLY fixed the issue with dwarves deciding a quick snack of purring maggot is better than a *Dog Meat Roast* downstairs, so a dairy industry should finally be viable without importing milk.

Then I'm going to try arena mode.
