But waiting an hour for a cup of booze? When the inns are really crowded I just take the barrel and leave without paying, because in GREAT COMMUNIST DWARF SOCIETY only stores own things, and taverns aren't stores. (You can get free money from stores by taking the shopkeepers' clothes from their dressers and selling it back to them. :v)

If you talk to a shopowner that isn't from the civ the shop is in (say, a dwarf in a human shop), they will trade away the shop's money like ordinary goods. In this way you can earn thousands while only paying a few coppers!

"Ah, ye found my shirt! I lost it two years ago! What a miracle!"
"...I found it in your dresser."
"Take these money, oh valiant shirt-returner! We must make a feast in your honor!"

I have also noticed that you can almost always pay for drinks by selling the empty mug back to the tavern keeper.

I hoped my first ever attempt at drawing would be a success...

 you can imagine my disappointment.



I'm not entirely sure what helpers and judgement look like, but I tried to make them look helpful and judgemental.

Thats a cool take on it!
It reminds me of Hinduism.

That is one freaky figurine. Imagine being the worksdwarf making it.

Today I learned playing a hamster-man can be pretty harsh in Dwarf Fortress.

So I played a demi-god hamster-man. Basically it is a man of very small size, with the head of a hamster. That sounds stupid ; especially when I’m told that my character is “incredibly muscular” due to the superior strength I gave him.

I ask about any trouble around, and locals tell me that a goblin army is on the march towards a hamlet in the north. I must stop them ! I find a pikeman (named “Ape”) foolish enough to join me. Mustn’t be the smartest guy around, with a name like that and so eager to join a hamster-man in a fight against dozens of blood-crazed goblins. Anyways… We arrive and see no goblins, so we go straight to their pit !

There, where I expect rapid and painful death, I encounter only a few goblins peacefully going about their daily tasks. Even a warrior passes me by and doesn’t attack me… Maybe they like hamster-men after all : I’m so fuzzy, you can’t resist such cuteness. But that’s kind of humiliating : I’m incredibly muscular, goddamit ! So I wreak havoc and attack one. With all my strength I smash, smash and smash again onto the poor bastard’s head. But I’ve got such tiny arms ! It takes me forever to finally strike him down. I kill another one in the same fashion, then me and my pal go back to the village.

Goblins everywhere ! That’s where they all were, of course. But nobody fights ! Come on farmers, don’t let those horrendous creatures steal your goods and hit on your best girls without doing anything ! Firming my two little paws on my faithful maul, I charge the closest ennemies, two wicked female goblins, one with a sword, the other with a spear. After several attempts, I manage to hit one on the head, and then.

Ho god. The bitches first slash my hand. With the cutest little squeek, I drop my maul. Then they open up my guts.”You feel sick”, the game appropriately informs me. I fall down and then they stab, stab, and stab my head again. And then again. Like, a dozen times.

Poor, poor little hamster-man.

The good news is, you're much better at drawing than hamsterman-ing, neat effect there, did you do the shading against a piece of wood?

[DG]

Go for the eyes, iwantjelly! Go for the eyes!

[iwantjelly]

@DG : I had the "bite" option during the fights. That's what I should have done, using my unique hamsterman abilities !

@Max : Thanks, the effect is due to the paper, which grain is composed of horizontal lines. Rembrandt paper, if I'm not mistaken...

[SeriousConcentrate]

You're really, really good, man. I mean, damn.

*claps* fantastic!
