Dwarven Slavery
« on: November 30, 2014, 03:41:14 pm »
So, I just sold several of my dwarfs who got all webby and cage trapped to my parent civ. Is this normal? Will they hate me for breaking dwarf law?

I guess you'll just have to wait and see.

Don't worry though. Hopefully the result will be !!dwarfly!!

My prediction is they were worth a single urist.

i know everything about selling sentients to passing caravans. i put PET and PETVALUE to every creature and just sell them to humans, dwarves or elves (if i'm in a fell mood). most profitable industry ever. it's good for the FPS too. nothing will happen, if you didn't give them a PETVALUE then you'll just earn one urist and the cost of the cage, that's all.

depends on the PETVALUE you gave them. if you didn't put any, you can still sell them (just like k33n did) but i think you'll ear one urist. i generally gave them a PETVALUE of 200.

just a flat one urist for all of them? No difference for children than adults? The cage is worth more than that. Pah!

if you didn't put a PETVALUE, one urist for each one. if you did, the value you put for each one you sell. if you sell your besiegers and you have a cage heavy defense plan like i do, you'll have at least 15 prisoners from a fight. if you put, for example, 200 like i did then it's 15x200= 3000 urist at worst without lifting your finger, with the added benefit of making them change faction, thereby stopping the game from listing them and tracking them as soon as they leave the map.

I prefer vanilla setting if I can help it. I don't want to mod in profitable slavery if it is not supposed to be there.

I could probably find more interesting things to do with prisoners, anyway. Like target practice, or maybe an arena that only my soldier dwarves get to view through windows (maybe it will up their discipline since it just scares civilians.)

How do you get the goblins to stay in their cages? The last time I tried to trade prisoners away they just got tossed out of the cage as it was hauled to the depot.

Look elsewhere, reader. There is nothing for you here.

did you select it from the cage category of from the animal category on the depot menu? because if you select it as a cage rather than an animal, the dwarf will just move the cage.

A cage can be of use - unlike a legendary gelder or milker... ;P

Hey, I don't want a dabbling gelder anywhere near me or my fort. I wonder what a gelder would make if they were a moodable skill.
