Personally, there are some rather odd ball, minor things that I wish were put into this game. The ability to snap someone's neck is a fun one. I don't know how it would be done, maybe just like strangulation but requiring both hands on the neck/head. Would just have the effect of breaking the upper spine, rendering the person permenantly grounded and unable to do anything but push.

Another thing is that I think certain bones should be worth more. Like dragon bones should be very valuble, being that they're extremely rare and limited in number.

Oh and this isn't a minor thing, but I'd really like to be able to tear out organs while unarmed. ;D

Anyhoo, do you have any hopes for future adventure fun?

Making bone weapons, and picking up a sharp stone off the ground,get a branch,and rip out someones tendon to make a stone axe/spear.And wearing skulls, ripping off elf skin to make a blood holding gourd and flood the Major rivers with damn blood. Example to some:
You pick up the sharp stone
You pick up the branch
You rip out that guys tendons
CONGRATS YOU MADE A STONE AXE/SPEAR THING

Wouldn't the Dragon's various organs be similarly valuable?
Particularly whatever parts allow for that delightful Dwarf killing hellspout fire breath.

Bone weapons would probably be limited. The bone might make a decent handle, but there's only so much you can do with them as an actual weapon. Maybe a club or something.

I'm curious what the barely conscious ai wrote about.
Well that went better than expected.  He went nuts and punched a rabbit to death, then the dogs and the whole dining hall ripped him to shreds.

Ah yes but what about weapons connected by tendons,IE intestines?

Screw your logic,I killed a grizzly bear with a spoon,while naked,in the 17th century,as a Courer Des Bois,in something like DF adventure mode except well developed, and its called Last Winter, where logic is where a beaver can slaughter every soldier at Stalingrad.

Being able to craft your own +elf bone bracelet+ like goblins do would be awesome. I guess its amongts adventurer skills thats allready in dev notes, just hopinh it comes in any time soon.

Of course dragon bone and leather thingies would be worth a fortune ;D

I think the ability to play as an adventurer while your fort is active, and be able to switch between the two would be neat.

Going to the fort as an adventurer would put you at immigrant status, and you could control yourself as a normal dwarf in fortress mode.

Mostly, I just want to create a squad of multiple fully armored legendary dwarves to join me on my adventure.

And war dragons. I want 30 war dragons to follow me around.

You cannot have adventurer mode and Fortress mode going side by side unless you want the dwarves of your precious fortress to be running your fortress on AI. It would suck, they would ruin all your careful plans, and the world would go to pot.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

Skulls/corpses of especially notorious criminals should be worth a lot to the right people.
