Comrade Fortress Idea Cesspool
« on: March 30, 2009, 09:21:34 pm »

Because I am laking in this particular department. Throw in any good Soviet/Communist/etc. related things you would like to see in a DF mod.

Obvious:

Dwarves = Comrades
Goblins = Capitalists

Weapons:

Sickle (we already have a hammer, after all.)
AK-47

Ideas:

Bomb-dogs which explode when killed?
RPGs?
Molotov Cocktails?
Various totally whacked-out Soviet inventions

Ever read Edward Bellamy? (popular socialist writer in the 1800s, wrote a "sci fi" novel where a guy wakes up in 2000 and gets a tour of the American socialist national order...)

Loads of that stuff reminds me of DF... how I run my fort at least. Communal dining making everyone really happy, compulsory service in the "industrial army", the really skilled craftsmen run the show, necessities are free but there's one set of shops that provide ALL luxury goods, hanging out in statue gardens... No nobility, but I kill those off anyway. My only noble (the Dungeon Master) definitely pulls his weight. :)

Um, he isn't replacing the hammer with sickle. He is saying we don't need a hammer (Hammer AND Sickle, remember?) because we already have one.
