That would be interesting if your fortress affected the hill sites or their growth.

And fairs sound fun as that seems close to holidays. It will be nice in the far future when you enter a festival and wonder if you are the lucky target of whatever good or bad tradition the revelers have.

The festival's dancing and music pause as you enter the courtyard.
"Praise Armok!  The sauce has arrived!"

In the devlog the "* Replace dwarf mode generated caravans with actual caravans" is still white. As I understands for this release caravans will be real caravans coming and going from real places and not "generated". Or am I wrong?

I would very much like economy to be tackled next.

With the FIFA world cup going on and all, I wonder, It's planed to have some sports at regional levels at least? Obviously not football but things like festivals with various competitions, for example hand to hand combats, archery, jousting, etc... for money, positions in a court or other rewards held every X amount of time or exponentially or times of plentiful or need?

I'm pretty sure it's just armies and refugees for now.

Arena sports have come up a lot:

Bloat233, ARENAS, (Future): Fight for food or money, stuff can be on chains or just waiting inside. Various associated industries.

PowerGoal41, THE ARENA, (Future): You read the schedule of the stadium's coming attractions, including wrestling, spear-throwing, full-armored combat and man versus beast.

PowerGoal67, THE LOCAL ARENA, (Future): You are in charge of taking the bets for the local arena. Somebody loses all their farm animals on a fight, and you have to collect the debt.

PowerGoal113, DIVINE INTERVENTION, (Future): You are playing goblin ball in the arena when your son yells "dad! dad! goal! goal!". Your son had been praying all day just so that you would win. Your kick is short, but the god Markad manifests and finishes the kick.

They are also the subject of a ThreeToe story.

[LordBaal]

Ohhh I searched for jousting, festival, sports but not for arena... silly me.

[Sergarr]

Goblin ball? I wonder what the rules for that might be...

[Valtam]

Goblin ball? I wonder what the rules for that might be...

I bet they're related to Scream Ball own rules, as much as soccer is related to rugby.

PowerGoal49, SCREAM BALL, (Future): Trolls take the captives and see if they can throw them all the way over the chasm to each other.

*Sniffs derisively*

If you'd ever even bothered to read the Hobbit, you'd know you are referring to Golf.

I see where this is going...

Honestly if this happened in a game... I would probably count it as interference.

[Putnam]

Honestly if this happened in a game... I would probably count it as interference.

And incur the wrath of a God? Nah, that'd be a bad idea.

It's not interference, He's a force of nature.

[Aninimouse]

And incur the wrath of a God? Nah, that'd be a bad idea.

 The crowd falls silent as the ball hits the ground, moving slowly and obviously doomed to fall short of the goal. However, in just moments the stadium erupts into cheers and applause as, instead of slowing to a halt, the ball accelerates towards the goal. The Referee whistles, and is in the middle of calling out the interference by the gods when the ball rebounds off the head of one of the chained, goblin goalkeepers - (bruising the muscle, jamming the skull through the brain and tearing the brain!) - and rockets in the direction of the now, terrified referee. (the severed part sails off in an arc!).

Content with the bloodshed, Armok guides the ball rolling back to the goal, and victory is claimed.

[TD1]

Imagine the Basketball.

Bloodyball.

[Hetairos]

Cue a Blood Bowl mod.
