Hello folks.
With the advent of the new dwarf fortress version, that let you retire your fortress and play as an adventurer (which can visit player built fortresses,goblin sites,humans ecc.) I was wondering about something.
Would it be possible to make a fortress, let's say with 100 dwarves and enlist some of them in the militia then later claim an individual of said fort in adventure mode, ask the other dwarven soldiers to join you and attack goblin sites?. (as I understood, you can ask people to join you in adventure mode)
I remember reading around that if you retire an adventurer in a site, he's going to remain there and live there.
Like if an army needs to path to your fortress, it mean that they must somehow exist in the world, and if they exist there is a source ---- > the site
If we destroy said sites through a band of soldiers made in aventure mode, then we could in theory stop said invasions and make a world conquered by dwarves!

If this is somehow possible, then we could make a community fort where we revive a dwarven civilization and conquer the world? I dont know if this has already been attempted but.......
Dwarf Fortress veterans, please answer this!

While I'm a novice DF player with nigh-zero adventure mode exp, from stories I know you totally can do the first half - kill off the sites with an adventurer.

Actually conquering them is more difficult, as TheFlame52 can attest - perhaps if you weaken them and then let your retired fort with strong military take over while you ponder star charts or run 0-migrant fort and hope they do actually take over instead of ransack the weak site.

Well.... I didnt necessarily want the dwarven civilization to initiate an attack and take the site, but more like by conquering them I meant wiping them off the face of the world with my adventurer band, like killing everybody at the site.
Would that extinguish it or people would respawn magically?
Also , is there a way to move this topic to an another board? I guess this isn't the right board.

Oh wait, you did post in thread >_> *FF cancels read updated topics: interrupted by PM*

Anyway, yes they'd stay dead till the necromancer cometh: The Age of Emptiness and Death

I don't think another forum is necessary....It just so happens that fort mode is more popular than adv mode in questions is all, I think.

Though that same TheFlame52 killed off goblin civ almost entirely in fort mode in BastionGate, so reducing them to non-threat doesn't necessarily need it by itself.

I am gonna start a community fort then, thanks =)
Thanks to TheFlame52 topic in theory we could somehow make outposts and hope they attack sites, or do it manually.
