Also, the cultist's pray attack says BYTYPE:BURN...smite:1:2:BLUDGEON. This means, the cultists attacks with his BURN body parts (which don't exist, unless you added a burning brain stem), in order to cause blunt damage.

I'd suggest changing it to either MOUTH or THOUGHT types, and switching the damage to burn. Also, you may want to consider heat-ray goggles for the eye-rollers to use as a burning weapon.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll fix that now.

Oh, whoops. I didn't notice this and posted my own creation in the original thread. Though the only thing it did was add the Armok megabeast and remove all original megabeasts (and minor changes to dwarf/goblin names).

Anyway, I think you should have started with this:

code:
body_armok
[OBJECT:BODY]
[BODY:EYEPIERCING_SPIKE]
[BP:EYEPIERCING_SPIKE:eye-piercing spike][CONTYPE:TAIL]

code:
creature_armok
[OBJECT:CREATURE]
[CREATURE:ARMOK]
   [NAME:Armok:Armok:Armok]
   [TILE:'A'][COLOR:4:0:0]
   [MODVALUE:50]
   [DRAGONFIREBREATH][FIREIMMUNE_SUPER]
   [FANCIFUL]
   [MEGABEAST]
   [GENPOWER:5]
   [FREQUENCY:5]
   [CAN_LEARN][CAN_SPEAK]
   [CANOPENDOORS]
   [GRASSTRAMPLE:50]
   [BONECARN]
   [BUILDINGDESTROYER:2]
   [MALE]
   [NOFEAR][NOBREATHE][NOEXERT][NOFEAR][NONAUSEA][NOPAIN][NOSTUN]
   [LIKES_FIGHTING]
   [PREFSTRING:hate of eye-rollers]
   [NOT_BUTCHERABLE]
   [BODY:HUMANOID_4ARMS:TAIL:HEAD_HORN:EYEPIERCING_SPIKE:4EYES:NOSE:2LUNGS:HEART:GUTS:ORGANS:THROAT:NECK:SPINE:BRAIN:MOUTH]
   [BODYGLOSS:CLAW_FOOT]
   [BODYGLOSS:CLAW_HAND]
   [SIZE:30]
   [ATTACK:MAIN:BYTOKEN:EYEPIERCING_SPIKE:gash:gashes:1:6:PIERCE]
   [ATTACK:SECOND:BYTYPE:GRASP:slash:slashes:4:12:GORE][ATTACKFLAG_WITH][ATTACKFLAG_CANLATCH]

   [BIOME_ANY_LAND]
   [STANDARD_FLESH]
   [SWIMS_INNATE][SWIM_SPEED:2500]
   [HOMEOTHERM:10040]

I make no claims to it. Impending Doom, feel free to change stuff and stick your name on it.

Good stuff there, Beard! May have to do some fiddling to keep Armok Cultists from getting attacked by their own diety, though.

Or should I...    ;)

EDIT: on the subject of the boomsticks, perhaps the saltpeter should be refined into black powder, then made into cartridges with quarry bush leaves, or some other paper substitute. then, the cartridges could be combined with stacks of metal bars to make ammo. the powder and paper would not show up in the description, but it is understood that they are there.

P.S.: Seeing as how the Cultist marksdwarves will be using boomsticks, perhaps they should be called 'gunpriests' or something similar?

YET MORE EDITING: OOH!! I just had a brilliant idea! But I need to know a few things first: Can corpses be used in reactions? What about armor? Weapons?

Just rename Armok to Avatar of Armok. When he shows up for the eyes he is there to smite the unbelivers. And when he shows up for the cultists he is there to test the belivers.

Ahh... Didn't think of that. forcing the Cultists to fight their own god as a test of faith? Nice.  :)

I'm not certain about this, but I think anything can be used in reactions. The wiki says extracts can't be used due to a bug.

What's your idea?

My end of the development may be delayed for most of today.

EDIT:
Oh, and check out my new sig! Images aren't allowed in sigs, including smilies unfortunately, but you get the message.

Actually, the idea was that a slain cultist could be reanimated as a sort of war golem by placing him in a specially made suit of armor. the suit would have weapons like swords/axes/maces etc. fused directly to the arms. the process would be costly, however. It would require one full suit of armor, plus various other things. Sound good?

From wikipedia: Shocked by what he has learned, Roth opts to "go home" – to voluntarily submit himself to publicly available euthanasia. Thorn follows him but is too late to prevent Roth's death, but they are able to talk long enough for Roth to tell him what he has learned and ask him to prove it. Thorn secretly follows a body disposal truck to a heavily guarded waste-management plant, and confirms with his own eyes that Soylent Green is made from recycled cadavers.
PS people in that movie eats Soylent Green.

EDIT: oh, it's food, not drink? Ah well...
