You as a player have four, your henchdwarves give one extra per dwarf.

[HmH]

Give Etur 5 kittens and tell him to exchange them for a barrel of booze - preferably champagne. The winners have to bathe in something after the race is over, don't we?

[Caerwyn]

Boars! Boars! Boars are better than Eagles! Boars are MANLY, DELICIOUS, VICIOUS and UNPREDICTABLE. For the honor of the Boozerbear clan, we WILL win! AGGRESSIVE DRIVIIIING! My Hench-Dwarves will try and help by lobbing whatever useless supplies we have at our dreaded Eagle-riding nemesis! (Rocks, tankards, painful things)

Thanks for the cheering, however! Glorious! You have earned yourself a stalwart ally!

"DANM IT BIRD! LAST CHANCE TO GET TO THE FINISH!!! I CAN SEE THEM AHEAD OF USSS!!! MOVE WITH ALL YOUR STRENTH AND 21 cats are yours for the taking! and a boar!!!!!!!
FULL FREAKING SPEED AHEAD!!!!

[HmH]

((@zomara: Wouldn't it be more logical just to put all these cats to work? I mean, I've got 22 healthy cats and an injured one in the harness, and I have 4 speed already.

On a side note, I have a strong gut feeling that tinkering with engines will, as a rule, allow the players to immediately give themselves extra speed; the reason the cat owners were the first to discover it is just because cat engines are upgrading themselves on the fly.

What do you say, Person? Is "you'll get speed upgrades for working on your engines" the message you wished to convey by giving me 2 speed so, if you will pardon the bluntness, unexpectedly?
Because I'm looking forward to our next race very much if this is correct. When your speed depends more on your rolls and imagination than on how expensive your engine is... well, let's just say everyone will have a fighting chance this way. Which will, in turn, let me use the full power of my build without getting pangs of conscience. ))

[zomara0292]

((I am guessing that switching out the engine will cause me to pause for a moment on a mid-roll, which I cant afford if I don't want last place.))

[antlion12]

Switch to aggressive and attempt to ram zomara

[Person]

4 speed is about the maximum you can go with basic cats. Any more and it just improves the chances of the entire engine not dying when hit. There will of course be ways to upgrade other engines. For example, Caerwyn could put his boars on some sort of training regimen between races to improve their muscles. The whole thing is fairly free form, but the past games have never been able to complete 2 races in a row. I also guarantee that speed won't be the only thing that matters in the next race.

[Caerwyn]

Of course not! BOARS AND BOOZE! All a dwarf needs! Speed is for weaklings! An unstoppable TANK is god-tier!

[Tiruin]

"What is this..."
"I cannae get..."
"...Acker'sid boars!"

Use my angle of trajectory to slam into Caerwyn's cart, perhaps losing him traction in respect to mine! Sprint [Aggressive drive] towards the finishline!

[wolfchild]

Caerwyn, I am afraid to say, I am doing tank better than you

[Caerwyn]

I won't deny that. At all. But, maybe we could become pals? I'll be the "Bash and rough up everybody", and you be the "First place, all day, everyday" guy?

[wolfchild]

Oh by the way, I f I say replace my chasis with iron, do I get resale at all?

[HmH]

Raisins are the disgusting, filthy dropping from the Glorious King Grape. It is an INSULT to place them on a delicious, wholesome, delicate pastry!
