Goblin Dark Fortresses and Demons
« on: June 11, 2008, 08:45:00 pm »

I've been playing Adventure mode for a few days now, and I've recently taken to killing every living thing in goblin towers.  However, I was expecting there to be a demon at the heart of most/all of them.  Is it only a certain goblin 'capital' that has them?

Funny you should ask...

I've been taking on the task of starting fortresses in goblin fortress areas to systematically wipe them from my seed.  I am on my third successful slaughter now, but this one is a really populated goblin fort.  Like 50 goblins.  

They have a demon ruler and a goblin local leader/swordmaster.  The smaller goblin forts of 15 to 20 didn't have any.  I don't have a ton of experience in this area, but this is what I've seen.

Wiping out goblin fortresses will not stop you from getting sieges/ambushes, I suspect. You'll stop the goblin leaders from joining the sieges, but that just means that the game will create goblins for you to fight out of whole cloth (typically lead by a guard).

Precisely.  If you mod in an evil civ that's playable in adventure mode, you can ask goblins where their capital is, which should also be the location of their demonic deity/ruler.  There's one demon for each goblin civilization, unless you've already killed it.
