A lot of people have probably seen the legends viewer, which allows you to make some really informed choices about where to settle.

I read the thread about embarking on a kobold camp thread with great interest, and would like to open a discussion on really fun places to embark using the embarkanywhere utility.

So far my ideas are:

- Embarking on city sites
- Embarking near caves with creatures you want (dragons)
- Embarking near kobold camps

Does anyone wish to share ideas for cool embarks?
I was thinking of embarking on a site where both me and the goblins share the map but are at peace and at war with the elves. That would be pretty lulzy.

Kobold camp, goblin tower, elf forest, dwarven hall, and human castle.



AND THERE ALL AT WAR WITH KOBOLDS AS MERCENARIES. YES YES YES!

You can see most sites anyways, so that's not new.  Kobold camps are invisible, but can be embarked on freely, making them unique.

All I can really think is specific megabeast lairs.  Minotaurs might be fun, labyrinths!

My only beef is that I could not find a labyrinth with more than 1 minotaur!

I didn't even want to embark on kobolds in the first place, let alone write a guide about it. Grumble grumble.

Frankly so long as I have a savage biome with a bit of evil on the side I'm happy. I can't really think of any specific occasions where I'd want to end up embarking with a named creature or something alone those lines, because it's effectively just a day one titan.

You dare deem the mighty KodKod, dark lady of the night, slayer of life, and the perfect demon, a mere kobold? You must die.

Say that again and I will embark my foot so hard in your face that your children will be missing teeth.

I never oppose being close quarters with a woman.

Is there a way to up the population of a minotaur labyrint?

Make tons of semi-megabeasts, too many and they will share homes and make babies.

Found a 1000 year old dragon "Stettad Parchedglowed the Gold of Flames".

Just gotta find out where he is, and we're good to go.

Guess what? They are all female.
