Some of my wise ideas
« on: May 16, 2010, 01:38:05 pm »

Ive just been thinking of some ideas for new versions... Here they are:

1.Bone blocks/furniture: Just imagine... A large siege of goblins coming to your fortress, but they must first pass through a tunnel... Made of THEIR ANCESTORS! So basically you take 3 bones of a type and make a bone block, or furniture. Furniture will have value depending on the type of animal bone (Goblin chair, dog bone table, or even an artifact Mega Beast door?).

2.Frozen monsters: So you can make blocks out of ice and make constructions, right? But why not be able to use the blocks that have frozen monsters, and make walls? So basically depending on the monsters, it works kind of like an engraved wall, so make a chamber out of walls of frozen goblins, mega beasts, demons, etc. So now you can execute goblins with ice, then make your entrance made out of frozen goblin walls.

3.Amber: Amber deposits could be like gems, but some would have rare "Vermin" stuck in some, and can have greater value, and be made into crafts with greater value.


They may have already been suggested, but if not I thought these were some good ideas of mine...

1. This can be modded in: by making a custom reaction that takes three bones and produces the required item.
3. It's easy to mod in a gem/mineral called amber. If you then copy the tags that make star rubies appear in rubies, and add them to the amber+vermin gem.

Sometimes, when my Dorfs are exceptionally stupid again, I wonder what exactly the [INTELLIGENT]-tag does.

Actually, amber is in the game already, just not as 'ore deposits'.

Mod in 'amber' that only appears in single tile clusters inside amber, and is worth more. Maybe do the vermin tile, copying the colors of amber?
