Okay, no mods. We play it straight. Consider this post me switching my vote from mods to vanilla. Good points there, mastahcheese. I hadn't considered it in that light.

Feel free to correct me.

It's amazing that this topic managed to reach 6 pages before derailing...
What do you mean the train isn't supposed to skydive?

No, it was supposed to skydive already on page one.
Maybe it's because the title is very generic, thus permitting us to space between modding, worldgen, adventure and dwarf mode without going Off Topic in a distinctive way.

I think we should install Modest Mod and Seasonal Crops Mod. First for fix some things like diplomats and second mod for harder farming.

I've never played with any mod (or only if you are considering Therapist as a mod, but it's not). I consider in a game that i have to play with mods when I'm bored with the "vanilla" game.
About DF, I've not reached this point yet, thanks to its extraordinary features. And I won't begin with a mod for now. So if it's with mod, consider I won't be a part of it.

I voted for mods, simply so that we can have player wars, because that seems more fun than normal Bloodline (Succession) games.

This is too good to miss. You have my spear.

I vote no mods. Toady is seriously shaking up the raws, if the devlog is any indication, so existing ones probably won't work as intended. For new mods, well, we ought to be a great vanilla benchmark to compare to.

Anyway, with the new claims system, we might not even need to mod to have player wars. We could provoke two different dwarven kingdoms (most worlds generate with about 10 of them on average) into declaring war on each other, and have players pick sides, or maybe even cause a civil war (pending Future of the Fortress reply from Toady.)

True. I'll put you on the list.
I was thinking about the 'huge network of underground tunnels'-thing. We can't build walls or dig away walls at the edge of the map. The only way to connect fortresses would be through natural caves.
OR HELL.

This is disturbingly reminding me about The Dwarves, a book that I'd rather forget. Not that I didn't appreciate it, but because of its sequels.

Sounds familiar. Is it about multiple dwarven kingdoms in a mountain range surrounding a country that is constantly being threatened by all kinds of monsters?
