So a friend introduced me to this game awhile back and I recently (like a few months ago) decided to check it out again. I play off an on and have lost count of how many games I have started and failed lol And yes I use the Mayday pack because I find I am much less confused xD Shh >.>

If anyone could tell me what the heck this is? It looks like a bunch of walls and I thought perhaps it was some elvish city/town etc, but when I 'k' over it just says 'plum tree trunk?' Its really neat. Guess I'll dig in while I wonder.



Also, randomly generated world name: Thur Gomath 'The Universe of Legends' <3

Those are the new trees. They have large canopies, made up of wall like trunks and branches.

Be aware that the current version just came out, and it is VERY buggy.

Expect your dwarves to randomly die from trying to climb those.

Keep your dwarves busy and they should avoid trees.

Working as intended - such trees are evil traps left by elven saboteurs to thwart others trying to harvest lumber.

Dwarves are use boulder traps in the same way, so other civs would die while trying to harvest stone from them.

However, they're an amazing source of wood provided your dwarves are either clever enough to avoid a falling tree (or not climb it, I'm pretty sure my lumberdwarf climbed a tree and cut it down from about half way up and killed himself in the process) or expendable enough to justify the trade of life for wood.

Just don't d -> t the entire map

My best tree related death was someone dying underneath a tree from a cave-in with no evidence one happened, then falling several stories up the tree before coming to a rest.

Yup, just trees. Chop at bottom, get logs, and hope one doesn't fall on your woodcutter. Welcome to Dwarf Fortress by the way. Stay away from the giant sponges.

They say tree trunks but there are actually salmon. Yup. >.>
