Thats a lot of murder

Moldath is a... murder specialist.

Trying to bash out a quick fort but it won't be spectacular - can build on it next time around.

Save game will be up tomorrow night.

[Quantum Drop]

We've finally killed, what, 90% of the beasts and night creatures then?

That would cause an Age of Fairy Tales (or Twilight); Golden Age means all the megabeasts are dead but a load of fantasy creatures are still about (half the world's population or more, iirc).

Looking forward to the story of how the Age of Heroes ended for good!

[Bralbaard]

The wiki says the following about the golden age:

The Golden Age
Less than 50% of all civilized creatures are mundane, but there is no single majority.
The Golden Age was a time when various civilized races peopled the world.

That means we skipped a few ages, Kesperan must have been very busy.. I also wonder how far we are from an age of the goblin.

[AvolitionBrit]

Jesus, im curious to what moldath has been up to and how he got all those forgotten beasts. If the goblins growth continues yeah we could see an age of goblins but i believe the human population stops the goblins having the pop majourity. If this keeps up to age of fairy tales and twilight are possible as well. This could be rather interesting. Additionally curious to see what the age of 3, 2 and 1 powers were and which megabeasts you choose to be the last.

[Bralbaard]

I think the age is usually only checked by the game at the start of the year or month? So it's likely we skipped the ages of power completely.

[AvolitionBrit]

Oh really, huh i just thought it would update. But it makes sense that it wouldn't check for it every moment.

[kesperan]

As far as I know, the age transition was triggered by the death of the last megabeasts. It’s not dependent on forgotten beasts.

The message popped up when I struck the earth on my new fort, in the first month of 860. 12th Granite to be precise.

[AvolitionBrit]

Ah thats interesting i thought it was as the wiki listed forgotten beasts with the megabeast tag.

[Bralbaard]

I think it's the power tag that's important, but there is a lot of conflicting infomation out there on age changes.

[kesperan]

I think it's the power tag that's important, but there is a lot of conflicting infomation out there on age changes.

It is a little opaque, but as I understand it the power tag is added in worldgen, and applies to demons and megabeasts, not forgotten beasts. There’s still loads of them in Orid Xem.

Going to try to get as much of a fort together as I can and upload the save tonight.

[AvolitionBrit]

Im gonna look into it as i would love to know what can and cannot be a power. Its not the megabeast/titan tag. Could be power

[kesperan]

OK, here is the save for the end of Turn 73, and the year is now 863.

I have made a new fort, to the north, called Iroldeduk (Northmanor) the Unholy Cathedral. It was founded by the Cult of Dishmab (Ramparts). It is a work in progress as I only really spent a day on it. Hope to build on it next time around.

I will detail my story and my museum submission in a later post.

Please sign me up for another turn Bralbaard.

The turn list and map have been updated:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It's worth pointing out that a lot of new hillocks have popped up around the new site. Most are inhabited by humans, not dwarves. (for those that have difficulty finding it on the map, it lies close to Monkeycurse)

[kesperan]

Yeah, my fort was only 2-3 years old, and I was constantly being spammed about new hamlets and hillocks. Same happened with my last fort. Does that not happen with you guys too?

[AvolitionBrit]

I think its most of us aren't doing good high value trades. Atleast when ive traded like crazy in other worlds is when i get hamlets.
