The next version will have more villages, and possibly a bit larger map. They will behave more randomly, some will be aggressive and invade you, others will do it only if you attack first and others will be completely passive. So hopefully it will feel less scripted. There will be a dwarf village under the ground and possibly another race. Is that what you would expect?

I've finished saving & loading the game, so with out too much more work it should also be possible to play adventurer and invade your own fortress.

Thats is a lot more than I expected, but have one question. The version I played you get attacked after some time, and that is ok. The problem is after the final attack the game ends, and I can not continue to play it. So is that changed? It was like the game had a time limit.

Yes, that's changed. You'll be able to continue the game and then when you're ready save it for adventurers to play.

Very interesting development, i wonder if as an adventurer one can survive the kind of death trap you build and the monsters guarding it.
Will your surviving monsters be ported into that adventure mod, and will your own keeper be a part of it to attack your adventurer ?

That's... pretty neat. Any thoughts on eventually being able to throw yourself at a built up dungeon as a rival keeper?

Anyone have any advice for dealing with the fact that most of the opposing forces have ranged weapons but none of the Keeper's forces have ranged weapons?

I've already started to plan my corridors with lots of turns and corners to limit the amount of ranged fire, but any other ideas?

Spam high level units, they can eat arrows like they're cornflakes. I'd prefer the top level beasts, but the top level creatures and vampire lords work fine too.

The person supporting regenerating health, when asked why you can see when shot in the eye justified it as 'you put on an eyepatch'. When asked what happens when you are then shot in the other eye, he said that you put an eyepatch on that eye. When asked how you'd be able to see, he said that your first eye would have healed by then.

Found out that your minions will pick up and use invisibility potions on their own!

They seem to have trouble with stacks of items, but they certainly grab the potions when they're alone on a storage tile!

EDIT: Is there some conspiracy to keep me from winning on hard?  The two times I "should" have won, I either a)get a crash or b)get no game completion screen despite killing both lords.

Yup, alpha5 bugfix, dunno if that is the most up-to-date.

Do you remember anything about the crash? Was there a message or did the game just close?

There was a crash report, but I'm afraid I didn't jot down the details.  It was over a day ago, so I don't even remember what was happening when the crash occurred, sorry.

Ooh I hope the underground dwarf thingy is like one of the older versions where you could send posess minions and send them deep below for loot and glory like current adventure mode but in keeper mode :P
