Any Realistic Combat mods?
« on: June 25, 2011, 10:45:20 pm »

Are there I know that if you take the corrosion raws and put them in vanilla DF you get pretty quick and dangerous fights but I want to know if there are any purpose built mods like that. So are there?

No, yep. That's what I meant too. I want to come out of the theater completely fucked up for weeks.

Sorry, you're asking for DF combat to be MORE realistic?

I think it's the way towns develop now. In the beginning, people move into a town. Then they start producing tables, which results in more and more tables. Soon tables represent a significant portion of the population, they start lobbying for new laws and regulations, putting people to greater and greater disadvantage...
Link for full quote. 'tis mighty funny.

If you want realistic combat in DF, then look no farther than... Vanilla DF.  The combat is already realistic enough, and I don't think you could really improve it with modding.

I thought there was a rebalancing project going on.

So up the pain thing in the raws. Should take you less than 5 minutes.

I read a re-balancing was happening, but I don't recall seeing anything published. Basically just do what Corrosion does, up the pain and slow the healing rates. Works just fine.
