It pretty much boils down to the world awareness at the time it was written. Even though the Norsemen placed Dwarves inside the mountains, those putting down the stories didn't have the advantage of truly exploring that realm for themselves, so we can assume the Dwarves knew better, had they been given the opportunity to comment on any of this. ;)

Are the underground features going to be automatically revealed on embark, or are you actually going to have to explore them manually? It would be pretty cool to send down a small party of novice military dwarves to find what riches may exist in that cavern network you just found beneath your fort.

They're going to be unexplored on embark, with the viewable area flooding out (not in a true line-of-sight fashion, at least not entirely) as you explore more of them.

Hey Toady, I propose a special [GOURMET] tag for vermin, so if one wants them to eat purring maggots they would just add that to them, or if one wants to recreate diskworld dwarves they would attach it to rats.

Alright 49 pages till we hit a thousand. And it seems like testing is getting close to an end. We can so do this.

With the new building raws, will it be easier to make wooden weapons?

Wooden training weapons are in, not sure about non-training weapons. Should be pretty easy to add in if they aren't.

Can a group of bodies share a spirit?
If so could it be used to handle the common people of a civ like kinnda a zeitgeist effect?

When civilizations get big enough, will you eventually lose a bit of focus on the detail so you can make HUEG civilizations? I would want to have a huge human empire rather than 1 village...

just a thought.

Then you have to split an merge spirits but it actually would work as long the groups dont get to big. It also would work with some quirks nature spirits have.

Animals in a biome could have theyr own "intelligence" which can send "messages" to an overarching nature-spirit soul.

Or a hive mind if thats what you're getting at?

Lol at Neruz. I didn't post at the same time as I was looking up zeitgeist.
