Sure I will give that a thought, as long as I can come up with a loot list that reflects their inferior civilization but is still marginally useful/interesting
gobs:  rusty iron, copper, some decent bows and daggers
kobolds:  wooden weapons, blowguns, leather, some cobalt

Any idea for rare drops?  Like, you're an orc pillaging a kobold village, what's the one thing you might see that you would actually be proud to bring back?  I guess it could be a crate of high quality leathers, for example.

[Stronghammer]

also totems or stolen relics/artifacts of other races. Cause kobolds steal stuff of high value. So you could raid kobold village with a reeeeeally small chance of getting a "lost artifact of blaa" In regards to slaves you could have an option to go enslave a people, and in return get a small chance of a map to the enslaved settlement. Then in the workshop you have an orc use the map to "visit" the enslaved spot and collect basic materials from them. And every time he goes there is a moderate chance that the spot is gone or destroyed. And you could then have an option to reinforce the slaved spot with a heck of a lot or weapons and materials to decrease the chance of losing the enslaved camp. This would give back a map to a reinforced slave spot, where it gives back the same materials but with a much lower chance of loss.

That is, if you want to allow orcs to slave. This would create the option to slave but without the production of actual creatures. You would just create an item that allows the orc to "visit the slaves and get stuff. So I suppose it would be a round about way of acquiring slaves and using them. aaaaand of course you can completely ignore this suggestion.

That's a pretty interesting idea, certainly it would be fun to do more strategy layer stuff like that if the UI was better suited for it.  I'll play around with it for a little -- I'm not sure it'll end up being different enough from the basic raiding idea.  Another option is to be able to allow some "Goblin Ghetto" or "Kobold Ghetto" workshops once you "capture" them on a raid.

[Stronghammer]

The ghetto ideas are cool ones for sure

How many ballista parts are needed for a Longboat?

[smakemupagus]

How many ballista parts are needed for a Longboat?

Three.

[tomio175]

And how much weapons do you need for a raiders kit?

[smakemupagus]

Five.

50% chance you recover the weapons and boat after a raid.  (Likewise, 50% that you successfully get a box of loot).  The coins are spent either way.

BTW Xebec has the same functionality as longboat, just that some of the wood requirement is replaced with Pulleys and cloth.  Longboat is easier unless you're short on wood.

I had the worst luck today with the raiding 15 times in a row nothing, thank goodness for sale of grog and living in a forest

[smakemupagus]

Yikes, that's enough that makes me worry about a bug, or at least loot crates getting temporarily misplaced due to some stockpiling weirdness.  Did your luck eventually change?

[Stronghammer]

yup i got a loot crate which i then opened and got a bow A as in singular bow nothing else. However yes it did change as i got two more loot crates with a try of 5 raids

Hello. I've got a pretty awkward question, but yeah: I am a dwarf for life, and I would like to ask, are some of the new blueprints and systems available to dwarfs too, or are they explicitly for orcs (besides runesmiths and the Merchant's Guild, I mostly mean magic and such, obviously not like raiding, which would be out of place.).

[Meph]

They are all for orcs only. What exactly do you mean though, which blueprints and systems ? Give me a list of things you want to see for dwarves.

I do like the raiding system, and one might outfit "expeditions" into the deep as a dwarf, or send trading caravans or war parties to enemy settlements. Will be a long time till toady writes the real thing, so modders can do one for themselves.

[tahujdt]

This is awesome.

I tried this fantastic thing. But when i embarked there were no trees on map, only snow and stone. Nothing else. I embarked in taiga, it was Heavily Forested. What i did wrong, guys?
P.S. I installed it on Phoebus's graphic pack. DF 34_11.00 version.
