Horrible beasts, antmen, naked moles, underground water, and a WHOLE LOT of mean things lying in wait. (can't spoil it!)

Tried downloading the save to take a look before it got too crazy.  I'm getting the same file and save linked in the first post, i.e. before you actually did all of the first turn.

Just out of curiosity, what DOES Dwarf Fortress smell like?
Death, Booze, and Insanity.

Ladders are absolutely essential for one reason and one reason only:

Uh, well...

That's a good question. At the moment, the microcline rocks are damaged and beginning to melt after having been on fire and smoking for half a season.

Not sure about the other ones yet.

What I am saying is that if I download the first, and I download the second, they are the same file.  Both are 27.69 MB, are the full mod with two worlds genned, and both have only one fortress going, region 2, and appear to be the exact same save game.

That would be my first sparkgear, but I'll gladly join.

You can do wonders in 24h. Or not.

I would prefer to play after wednesday next week (say, 10th). If the fortress still stands that is.

It should stand, so just for people mind, I will probably take, like Thursday, later than that, the fps will be horrible, and my new pc, just ready for Christmas :) So if I want drowning elves with blues rock, I need a steady fps :p

Thing should get really interesting :D

sir labreck, how you manage to mangle English so much yet still manage to keep your posts comprehensible is beyond me. Well done.

Oh, one thing: next player should probably get a trade depot up as soon as possible. I was watching the save Barbarossa put up just to see how fast the microcline would melt, and I noticed that once the first caravan showed up, they sorta ended up berserk or something because they couldn't leave the map somehow. (Dunno why...might've just been the ridiculously crazy elevation in the area.)

So you basically broke microcline while modding it, Barbarossa? Why include that in our game, anyway? It is something you can easily undo and probably should.

It's my turn now but from all the comments I don't know what to do about the save.

He gave it an ignite point of 9000. I'm not sure if removing this would require a regen.

It can only ignite and melt after being mined though, right?  If thats the case we just need to avoid the microcline. Since it doesn't occur in layers its more a hassle than anything game breaking.
