Modern Dwarf Fortress- Idea gathering/pre-development thread.

Modern Dwarf Fortress (name pending)

The idea of this mod will be to make a modern/sci-fi version of Dwarf Fortress. Theme wise, I was going to take inspiration from Half Life 2 and Shadowrun (Xbox 360 canon) and simply edit the default races to fit the new setting.

So, what games or settings should I take inspiration from? What kind of creatures should be included? What would you like to see in this mod?
If you suggest something I will try my hardest to get it working, eventually.

Ideas:
Vehicles as mounts- [THOUGHT] contained in a 'driver' BP
No rotting clothes- clothing is part of the creature's tissues
Upgradeable weapons- weapons can be upgraded with tactical gear and bayonets

You should do a half-life 2 setting. You could just have modded giant eagles be combine mounts, and have all that stuff. We wouldn't even have to get rid of zombies!
