Change of command?
« on: January 22, 2014, 07:42:07 pm »
I haven't spent much time in adventure mode but I have a question.  Can I go in as an adventurer and kill a dwarven monarch to force a change in rulership? I've got a necromancer king with no surviving heirs from worldgen and would like to assist in changing the regime.

Nope, you can't... yet. Next version you will, tough.

In a hole in the ground there lived a dwarf. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a dwarf fortress, and that means magma.

Nope. Dwarf sites don't exist yet and even if you did killing the fellow would just leave him dead and without a successor since in the current version worldgen no longer continues after the world is created.

Come the next version however you'll not only be able to visit him, kill him, jump on his corpse, carry it to the top of the highest tower in the land, climb onto the roof and throw him off, you'll be able to see him succeeded by an heir and do the same to him!
