After spending the better part of an hour exploring the world in Adventure Mode, I noticed a big migrant group on the world map. Wanting to make some new friends, I walked right into the middle of the group and discovered that they were goblins.
Now, if you're a goblin, you've been bred with one fundamental fact: a human with a big-assed mace is not your friend.
They all scatter to the wind, and I give pursuit to one, shouting, "I only want to be your friend!" while swinging my goblin-blood-splattered mace in a frenzy. Eventually the goblin gets away from me, so I zoom back out and look at the world map, to discover that there are now dozens of individual migrants all over the place: attacking the migrant group broke up all of the migrants into individuals!
I scouted after one of the migrants on the world map, and attacked again. He fled, only to fall into a dried-out murky pool, so I leisurely started throwing rocks at him (I didn't score a single hit, which leads me to believe that it's much harder to hit someone when attacking from a higher elevation in this version). Eventually I got tired of this and hopped into the depression after him, and greeted him with Mr. Mace. I broke his arms and legs with the mace, then as he passed out I took off -- he stayed on the map in one place.
Finally, I chased down another migrant who had scattered to the southeast. When I caught up to him, he ran like the wind and I merrily pursued him for quite some time. Unfortunately, I was so caught up in the thrill of the chase that I failed to notice the alligator who was running perpendicular to us and who intercepted me. In just three bites I was a goner.
I guess I deserved it for privateering against goblin civilians. ;-)
