Hello!
« on: May 01, 2014, 09:52:06 pm »

Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself to the community. Been playing DF for about 2 weeks now. I'm having lots of fun. Just wanted to say that playing while having the "Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug" soundtrack play in the background is just about the best thing ever. :D

Misty Mountains Cold from the first Hobbit is also unbelievably suitable.

Considering, the contents of the song is pretty much your average day in Dorf Fort

May dwarves always be drunk, and your enemies bleeding.  :D

Or your dwarves bleeding. However you like it the most. I personally find a sadistic amount of glee in having a dwarf with something missing that doesn't effect their day-to-day work or basic combat. Like an ear, or a nose. Or a grotesque scar across one side of the face, that's my favourite.

I promise that didn't seem quite as demented when I was typing it.

well such a large stack of ☼Finished Goods☼ would be a challenge.  Getting a dragon in there honestly seems like the easy part.

I see the Arkenstone as an artifact large gem...  Every time I get one I create a custom spot for it right in front of either the throne of the governing noble, or the temple of the main deity of the fort  :)

I'm new to succession forts in general, yes, but do all forts designed by multiple overseers inevitably degenerate into a body-filled labyrinth of chaos and despair like this? Or is this just a Battlefailed thing?

There isn't much middle ground between killed-by-dragon and never-seen-by-dragon.

Does Masterwork DF have a pedestal or display case or something you can build to show off useless artifacts and let everyone get happy thoughts walking past them?  I seem to remember something like that but haven't seen it in a long time.
