Easy ways to cause war?..
« on: June 15, 2012, 02:38:00 pm »

It seems like no matter how many times I kill all the elfs but one, or seize stuff from the Humans.. ect..
They never declare war, And come back next year to trade..

Is this supposed to take a long time?..

And out of the many years I have played DF.. this still has never happened to me. Even after worldGen!

Suggestions? ideas?..

For the elves, try trading wood. I heard this would upset them more then jsut killing them. Another option might be to give elves a diplomat, as they will try to impose tree cutting quota.

Yeah, you'll be better off modding diplomats in or just using DFhack to add diplomats in. Then kill the diplomats.

Those elven bowman are a pain in the neck to fight. Many dwarves shall die for the cause!

I usually just trade them wooden barrels, wait till they get all pissy, they drop a bridge on their dirty little heads. I don't even care about taking their stuff, elven items are horrible anyway.

Plump helmets and pig tails, the only crops you'll ever need.

To cause war, fixdiplomat using dfhack then murder every diplomat. Or for humans, there caravan.

I would disagree. Running a cloth industry entirely on pig tails is nigh impossible during winter and spring.

So there are two other crop options needed to fill this niche;

Rope reeds, and Giant Cave Spider.
