What? I'm talking about being in a temperate place with a haunted ocean where the ocean has deadly effects, wait for the ocean to freeze, mine out the ice blocks, make swords out of the ice blocks, and the swords should have the deadly effects that the water had before it was frozen!

1.Oceans freezing cause major fps lag unless they have fixed that.
2.Dont think you can make swords out of ice even when moody.
3.I didnt know evil oceans had effects. Only the weather?

1. Never lagged me.
2. You should be able to if you can make them out of slade.
3. I'm not sure either, I remember seeing as thread about 'boiling oceans causing dwarves to bleed to death'.

1. Temperature change - when seasons shift you'll get a massive lag spike that could crash your game. After that, it should be ok until the next winter.
2. Water and ice behave differently to everything in DF, they don't even have raws. No one's ever built any ice items before ;(
3. Not a syndrome, just world gen gone crazy ^_^

Awh.... Mod in ice to be a stone, make chaotic rains to make water in muddy pools, chaotic water pools + freezing + made stone(ice) into swords... Would it work?

What? I built a ice workshop once. Can't remember if it melted.

Water doesn't have raws, all hard coded. No modding can be done with it sadly.

As for material specific rains on the other hand, now that can be done. Though you won't be making any ice walls out of the stuff anytime soon.

Ice boulders can be used to construct anything from (b) (c), and on glaciers (generally anywhere freezing), workshops.
