Christmas activities!
« on: December 21, 2012, 01:15:36 pm »

I wondered what kind of especially christmassy activities could you perform on dwarf fortress. Beards and toys are always plentiful, and elves come only in summer, but things like dropping goblins into chimneys and kitting your military in reindeer leather would be a good start. Ham and redroot-dyed clothes for the civilians would be a nice touch, but after that you may need to stat modding.

Any ideas?

Mod in a new race of fat white-bearded dwarves that come to trade with flying wagons pulled by flying water buffalo.

I wonder if the game has become odd.

It should be relatively easy to make reindeer fly

I thought 'complained about the draft lately' meant they didn't have a door to their room.

I'm generating a 2,012-year-long world with the seed "merrychristmas" set for all seeds.
