alright...I might need to mod that for my game play then..because It is impossible for me to survive at all against the orcs, since the most I can do is basically get a champion wrestler or two, without armor or anything then here comes 15-20 orcs..when I only have 20-30 people..and they can kill my champions in less then a second each.

isnt it self-explaining that 20 orcs kill 2 dwarf without armor or weapons.

and why you can do that to goblins is because they flee when their leader dies and dont fight back anymore.
just get some archers to give cover, armor and weapons to the melee guys and use good tactics and you should get away with no casualties

I know they didn't have any armor, and whatnot...The problem is, They are attacking normally before I can even FIND the metal for armor in most of these locations, even though it is flux heavy, one time I went like..3 z levels using exploritory mining, and when they arrived like the above scenario....The only thing I had EVER found was talc, and LOTS OF IT...I mean this place was nothing but damned talc it seems for EVERY VEIN..>.<

Don't exploit things  >:(! Tempt my hand and I shall give those orcs wings so they can fly right over your bridges.

About the adamantine problem. I think you guys are just being extremely lucky as I have not changed adamantine BUT I have done a number of tweaks and removed a heap of bugs which should set it back to its normal level if I did do something, which is probably a material item duplication that I removed (I hope).

Well you could SHOULD add a orcish flying mount if possible.

Anyway shucks... I was just getting a good fortress in the current version, what are the changes in the new one?

I suppose wyvern-riding orcs wouldn't be a miss.

The readme in the first post says

Quote
- Roughly doubled growth rate of all plants

That's meant to be roughly halved growth rate or roughly doubled growth time, right?

This is like the 3rd or 4th year of my current fortress and no orcs.

As a matter of fact no difficulty either, everyone is estatic and I have 8 multi-legendary champions.

Im sure they do, but nothing. What? Are they too good for my fortress? I have 79 dwarves and 2740 exported wealth and 153818 imported wealth.

Page TWO?!? Blasphemy!

Also:

playerswhodigdeeper[playerswhodigdeeper.length + 1] = Arathanar.

Sure you'll get null pointer exceptions, but we've got something called Deepsteel. That's all that really matters.

About Flying mounts on orcs, i saw that in Dark dwarves mod were orcs rode on dragons or maybe it was another mod, anyway that bugged it all up as the orcs just stood still at the edge of the screen and didnt attack not even when my dwarves were under them. dont know if this has to do with the mounts agressiveness but had to tell you that it may dont go well.
