All I'm saying is add in a little reward for having the stones to face off against the constant stream of undead, toxic clouds, rain that can melt your skin, and masses of reanimating, dividing enemies that can melt your CPU. 

That sounds like awesome fun there.

All kinds of extra things you can play with in evil biomes make them so worth it.

[Hyndis]

Also you can increase the number of points you get for embark up to a max of 10,000, IIRC.

Just adjust the advanced worldgen parameters.

[Patchy]

More embark points in an evil biome isn't always helpful... its jus more junk to try and haul inside before the "Fun" rains on you or gets all cloudy or the not so dead wildlife comes to greet you.

[Sutremaine]

It'd be pretty useful for buying full sets of equipment, although given the limited Armour User skill you can bring you'll have to be selective if you don't want the mobility of a tin can as well as the toughness of one.

[brainfreez]

Slime you gotta admit Freez has a point, why send all your precious little Urists to a place where they have no chance of survival?

Why not?

Shit, sending hundreds of dwarves to die is our hobby here. Evil zones need to raise the stakes, and by "raise the stakes" I actually mean "have 50 migrants turned into life-hating undead thralls by an evil rainstorm before they can reach your gates".

i believe the mountainhome is not like player and it actually cares about its slaves urists .

I'm all for "the challenge is it's own reward" though you can always mod in more rewarding stuff if you feel like you need it (several mods include more dangerous rewarding wildlife/plants that you can find in evil biomes.)

Good biomes are not dwarfy, you elf.

Ponies are not dwarfy, you bronie.

Dwarves are not pony, you floating guts.

Modding isn't vanilla, you hacking scum.

Vanilla is too easy, you purist simpleton.

Stacks of 100 elephant zombies aren't easy, you generalizing-purist hater.

Elephant zombies aren't trap avoid, you persistent quoter.

Yo, guys, cool it down a little. You're not contributing to the thread, you're building large quote blocks, and as an outside person who just came in it's starting to get difficult for me to tell whether you guys are joking or seriously raging at each other. If you're joking then try to either get it on topic or pull it back a little. If you're raging then get out of here. There are plenty of forums out there that may let you come in and rage to your heart's content, but Bay12 isn't one of them. If you want to pull that shit then go troll 4-chan or something like that, but don't hang out here.

That said if you wish to have a calm discussion of your differences there are threads in the general discussion forums for that, but as it is it doesn't help this thread in any way, shape, or form, so please refrain.

[Mephansteras]

I think having some rewards for being in an evil biome is a great idea.

I'm planning on expanding the Alchemy system in Civilization Forge to have more magical elements to it. What kinds of things do people think would be a good use of evil biome materials?

[Mohreb el Yasim]

but you need to be on an evil biom to have silver colored clothing ... does that not enougth to "balance" ?  Anyway things are not balanced.

Surely you jest, or haven't been to other forums aside from Bay12.

That is no rage, it is just friendly quote building for the hell of it.
But yes, you are right, it is stupid, pointless and a waste of space.
If it makes you any happier I guess I'll stop.

[i2amroy]

I have, and it's one of the reasons why I'm so protective of keeping our forums nice.

If it's all in good fun, then don't mind me and feel free to continue, just make sure that it stays as fun and doesn't cross the line.

[Sutremaine]

But I like this one better because it's generally sensible. :/

[GreatWyrmGold]

Evil areas keep sieges out. Other than that, see what the good people at the Suggestions subforum can come up with. Just ask.

^. No hate over here, just a somewhat friendly discussion. I'll stop.

I propose this thread should be folded into the silly Good regions should murder you out of purest fucking spite but be holy about it thread in Suggestions.

[Loud Whispers]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

SLIVER BARBS

THEY ARE SLIVER BARBS

THEY MAKE BLACK DYE

I don' think that'd be the best of decisions
