So peaceful!
« on: May 06, 2012, 01:53:16 pm »

So I made a new world with 550 years of history...  It never left the age of myth, and I've been playing for awhile now been about 5 years and no invaders!  So I checked out the Civilization tab, turns out The humans are lead by a goblin and a cave-fish man, and my dwarves are lead by a GOBLIN queen!  No wonder!?  I wonder if I'll start getting goblin merchants

goblins conquered the world, or goblins were destroyed and enslaved, but reintegrated in their new civilizations. The cave-fish man is a vampire

note the "modify" button top right of your post. try to avoid double/triple/multiple posting. People see it as a new post anyway as long as no new posts came

The cave fish man isn't just any vampire, it's a Vampire of Venice.

so how can exactly a CAVE FISH MAN, even a vampire one, can belong to a human civ and rise to the law giver position ?

Also get your goblin queen to come to your fort ! Make her another Cacame, or Uxo in the goblin language !

Lose a war of conquest, resolve to change the system for the better from within and develop a talent for politics?

Never used Dwarf Therapist, mods or tilesets in all the years I've been playing.
I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.

No, it's far simpler than that.

hat to run from previous hide out, settled in human capital, got a sect of lunatics to follow him and staged a coup, but figured queen/king was a bit dangerous and became lawgiver

I don't think you understand what a pun is.

So, I too apparently gen'd a world that has a goblin queen as the ruler of the dwarven civ.

She just arrived, but I have a problem... She's considered a tame animal in my units list, and I can't assign her to any rooms even thought she's still requiring them.

Known bug?
