Random responses:
The captain was clad in basic clothes when fighting the Hammerer, from memory. Only the hydra battle was done whilst naked.

That is an awesome picture.

The entire group is Progeny, but I do need some replacements now, so having an Avari shouldn't be a problem. They work way better in adventure mode for some reason.

As for the skills, they're pretty basic. I mean, they're the level you get with a normal adventurer biased in weapon skills.

In other news, I installed my program, but never got around to starting it. When/if I get a moment.


Also: Whee, four hours tell I have to get up.

So what exactly is special about the progeny? You said earlier that they only stayed dead when killed by chaos lords, but the ones who died fighting the bane dragon appear to be pretty toast.

I think I know part of this one.
A member of the Progeny that hasn't died yet is normal.  The first time they die, they go back to before they died, with the arm mark, and become more powerful from the power of Armok.

Is this right, Captain?

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.
Just so I remember

Yeah, that's true. Bane Dragons possess the power of the Soulsmith, though, due to being corrupted by the Chaos Lords who, in turn, are creations of the Soulsmith.
Due to this, they're toast forever.

So, Cap'n. Whenever the inevitable end comes for story of Nist Akatah and the Progeny, what are your plans? Attempt a new fortress? Retire into the wild blue yonder? Sell official Nist-Akath shirts and hats?

This definitely is not a bump.

Yeah. Something to keep in mind, I work evenings on thursday to sunday, so the only days I can get a chance to play DF are mon-wed.

Even if you were away for a year we would keep this thread alive.

And (because of various programming quirks) dwarves are kinda stupid. Granted, so are the other races. But still.
And yet these stupid dwarves are going to eventually make a nuclear weapon out of cheese and basalt.
