So, I've generated maybe half a dozen worlds so far, not a lot.  I noticed that none of the dwarven civs were extinct (no blue statues showing in the world map) and none of them were at war with the elves at the time of embark.

Have I just been unlucky in my few searchs for my favorite embark (a civ that is at war with elves, and no longer has any fortresses/mountain homes shown on the map) in the latest version or does that no longer happen as much?  I'm some of you have generated many more worlds than I've had time for in the last five days ...

I don't know about extinct but I have a couple of worlds so far with "war with elves". My current 34.02 civ is fortifying and waiting for necro's and elves to start sieging.

I guess I've just been unlucky so far.

Try increasing the # of civilizations in worldgen. I make pocket worlds with 25 civs, this gives me about 5-6 Dwarven civs, I then cycled through the home civs until I found the 1 at war with the elves.

I thought the whole Dwarves Vs. Elves thing was just something we established ourselves in the community did in the forts due to our civilization's unneeded treaties with the filthy hippies. Or has this changed recently?

It's a worldgen thing, definitely not new, sometimes Dwarves and Elves go head to head ... check out the old Cacame thread ... about the ass-kicking elf king of the dwarves due to a war in 40d...Cacame, who kills dragons with his bare hands...

I took me more than 30 world gens, but I have a war with elves, it only works around the middle of the (fortunately smaller) island, but you can have all civs, attack elves and tower. I can post the world if you want, just abandon my nascent fort and enjoy.
