Adventurer Fortress Run Contests?
« on: January 16, 2011, 12:28:15 am »

I have had the most awesome idea, though I'm not sure if anyone else has already thought of this...

Let's make a Fortress Run game for Adventurers!  By that I mean, not a fortress for Dwarves to live in, but a massive building loaded with traps and machines that challenges the player to find his/her way through it alive, and possibly attempt to get some rare items/artifacts too.  We mod out Invasions, Ambushes and Thieves and mod Dwarves so they don't need sleep, food or drink, then have them build huge structures, fill them with items, traps and monsters (Caged wolves released by lever, anyone?), then abandon them and put the save up for download. People can run the forts and see if they can survive their makers twisted imagination.

The possibilities and combinations of traps and machines would be endless.

I will make a fort for this.

I think the thread would be better in Community Games and Stories.

Some people did something like this in 40d.  They had a world all full of dungeons and puzzles and half finished forts.

I had planned to make one for a friend... but I'm very lazy, I should though.

Do creatures in cages stay there after the fort is abbandoned?
