more cavern civs?
« on: February 02, 2011, 06:11:40 pm »
I was kind of hoping that "unnamed cave-fish man civilization" wasn't the only one down there...

are there more than listed?

Nope, sorry.

As it turns out, the pen was in fact a poor choice for melee combat in comparison to the sword.

So I just started playing this game and I accidentally nuked the moon.

Remember that you will also get non-civ creatures like trolls by the bazillion once you break into the caverns.

When though? I've never found any Trolls. Are they confined to one biome? (Yes I know they're cavernous, but maybe the biome of the aboveworld matters?)

Can you tame Trolls? That would be sweet.

Not sure - I tend to run into them. I *think* that caverns are biome-independent because of the real world phenomenon of Cave Temperature. However the caverns DO need to run off the edge of the map to get good monsters. Maybe you had an unlucky gen in that respect.

There should also be things like serpent men and cave swallow men.  They're basically the same as cave fish men, and should also be occasionally friendly, although I tend to get hostile ones.

You can also mod your own in, if you want.  You unfortunately can't make them much more advanced, and they tend to just sit around with piles of junk and stare at the cavern walls until you knock down a wall and ruin their lives.  Still, you can make a sheeple civilization down there or something, if you want.

Personally, I like [DF] because after climbing the damned learning cliff, I'm too elitist to consider not liking it.

Or a helmet snake civ...Or a plump helmet man civ...or cave bears...or elves...or giant eagles...etc.

It takes a fair bit of modding, though.

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.
