Apart from a short time on an Orcish Fortress, I have never played Masterwork or 34.11 before. I am familiar with DF, certainly - but not MW. So, with that in mind, let us play a Human Fortress!
I will be genning a world soon, based on your votes!
I don't know how to add a poll, so just reply with your votes please:
Should I have a: Savage, Neutral, or Good World? Should I activate the Fortress Defense races: none, easy, easy and medium, hard, or all? Poll over! I have used a formula to add the votes and found the average to be most easy and medium. The list is below.
I have enabled: Frogmen, Stranglers, Werewolves, Foul Blendecs, Serpentmen, White Tigermen, Beak Wolves, Ferric Elves, Badgermen, Pandashi and Raptormen.
My Medium world has: 1524 embark points, a very short history, medium savagery, civs and sites, no aquifers, frequent minerals and very high beasts. If you want to be humaned, give suggestions, or anything, please post.
That's it for now.
The Backstory:"My liege, you summoned me?" murmured the squire, kneeling to his queen.
"Yes," she said, "I have. I have a grand mission for you."
The squire lifted his head, eyes brimming with emotion. "My - my queen? A quest? For me, a humble squire?"
"Yes, man. You see, our kingdom is great and powerful, but limited in land. Orcs, drow, and other filth of this world press in upon us. Even the Dwarves in their Mountainhalls secretly offer prayers to their God of Blood that we should fall, so they could seize our resources. Therefore, at the behest of my chancellor, you will set forth with six others to found a new castle, a new fort, to press back those who would see us crumble."
The squire scrambled to his feet. "Y-yes, your majesty! Thank you your majesty! Right away!"
He fled the royal presence with a grin on his face. Things were looking up.
