subterranean dark elves
« on: April 01, 2017, 06:30:49 pm »

 Hello,
This is just a small suggestion to make DF more "fun". I suggest that dark elves or "drow" may be added as underground civilization, which has the ability to attack forts or possibly trade with them. This is just an idea so that every siege isn't one of goblins.

Deep Dwarves are planned for when the underground is suggested out a bit more. They'll trade probably. Then there's the broken underground animal civs too. Not sure what they'll be like in the future, but I guess we'll have an idea after mythgen which will apparently define animal-men a bit better.

Hopefully it'll just work out one day when the bits are in place and working that in a certain world one group of elves will prefer the underground and pretty much act like Drow.

Hopefully the game will roll up fully subterranean races when procedurally generated races start happening.

Yeah. Hopefully. But there's a lot of work just to get the whole concept of underground sites and civs working first even if you can generate the races to put in it.
