Help Wanted: Warhammer 40k Workshop names
« on: February 23, 2012, 09:59:47 pm »

So we are almost done with the next release of Necromunda 40k mod. Loads of bugfixes, gameplay streamlining, new creatures and other cool stuff.

We want to give all the workshops proper names and graphics. I thought I'd open it up to the public.

The custom workshops we want to rename are: (Current Name, types of jobs done here)
Distillium - Advanced Brewery
Cultivatorium - Advanced Farmers workshop. Seed/fertilizer jobs
Gunforge/Ammo mint - Weapons workshop. Weapon/Metal only reactions like a Machineshop
Armorsmithshop - Where advanced armor (Mesh,Flak,Carapace is made)
Medical Workshop - Where mundane items are made for hospitals and cleanliness
Surgery/Implant Table - where implants and bionics are added/removed
Adv Smelter - Where the Ceramite/Armaplas/Adamantium is forged

Also some items might be rethemed if we can find good names so far its:
Wheelbarrows
bottles - used to store freshwater and booze
bottles - used to store radioactive/dangerous liquids

Creatures havent been a problem so far but if you have any original names you think would fit in with 40k/Necromunda universe and want to share, do so. Dont mention anything thats ever been in a 40k or Necromunda book as was have that list already.

Spoiler: Original post. (click to show/hide)
Names, right.
In that case, I agree with Hugo's canteens.
Wheelbarrow seems to fit alright.

A wheelbarrow? Really?  It doesn't seem like WH40K AT ALL.  How about something like Cargo Lifter, or Item Transporter.  Anything but a wheelbarrow!  :P

*Techpriest cancels job bless power sword; cannot find wheelbarrow.*

*EDIT: I have been thinking of how awesome a WH40K mod would be, but I can only seem to find that TC for the plain Warhammer.  Are you doing a 40K TC?  Because I can't seem to find the thread anywhere. *EDIT 3: Nevermind, I found it!  So it's an underhive settlement type of deal, sounds like !FUN!

*EDIT 2: Oh, and for the bottles, why not Bio-Container(Bio-Canteen?) and Haz-Container(or canteen).

Remember Visionshift, this is the underhive. The merchants use pack animals. (*gasp*)

If this is supposed to be underhive stuff, honestly wheelbarrows might be fine. I mean, it's not like they'd be able to afford some kind of hovering cargo-carrier or a servitor designed to be a wheelbarrow or whatever.

That's the point, it wouldn't be as fun to crush their souls if they didn't have souls to begin with.

Yeah the underhive is pretty low tech for the 41st millennium.

I like the idea of building cargo servitors. We are putting in the ability to make servoskulls and cherubim with animal brains, but not for a while yet.

Chematorium could go down well when we start on the plastics industry
Augmetic = a cool word
Warded Canister .. makes it sound like they prayed over it which I'm looking to add as a reaction similar to the "Bless Power Sword" idea. Might even make incense that can be used to "glaze" weapons. Powersword coated with a masterful blessing :D

Yeah, this isnt a 40k universe TC, as we felt the underhive/necromunda fits a lot better with DF's difficulty/survival elements. I can promise that you will need a lot more labour to keep your hivers happy in this mod. Although Legendary Dining halls still seem to be required....

Leaded glass is a good one. Ill have to use that as well. There are a few radioactive items, lead metal (Mallium) and I've integrated the glass industry.. would fit nicely.

Does anymore know how to hax DF to change the names of crafts? I would like to have mechanical parts for this instead....
