I genned a few more worlds.

What I got was interesting. Instead of saying the Megabeast's name, it gave me the megabeast's species.

It's similar to "Age of Titan and Demon" But for dragons I got "The Draconic Age", while I got in another world "The Age of the Titan".

Both ages had only one megabeast.

i might make my current own machine race (modded and explodes) with the semi-megabeast tag or the megabeast tag and see what fun i get as well as how many times it fluctuates between emptyness (adv annihilation) and legend myth etc and perhaps the age of the machine

I managed to get to "The Golden Age" which then went to "The Age of Dwarves", and then to "The Second Golden Age".

What's ironic is that probably means the dwarves caused the end of the first golden age and the second was probably caused by the dwarves being somehow devastated (or the other civs becoming more powerful, but that's unlikely).  Darned trouble-making dwarves... always flooding valley forests with magma...

Seriously, though, I'm curious; how long was that Age of Dwarves?  Can you tell what caused it to start/end?

This is actually the result of breeding.

The Golden age will not come by unless there's peace. I had this coming in the order it is shown here. "Age of the Goblin/Golden Age/Age of the Dwarf/Second Golden Age/Second Age of the Dwarf"

During all that time were only dark fortresses. Each was trying to outbreed and murder the other.

You can't get the Golden age if there are any wars going on. Golden Age means peace.

I encountered something interesting in a succession game I played on a pocket dimension. When the game started, it was The Demonic Age (since apparently all the megabeasts were dead and the starting demon was still alive). The age changed after I broke HFS.

What is it that changes the age from Legends to Heroes? Whatever it was it didn't happen in my last standard wordgen of 233 years.

Decreasing number of Megabeasts/Semimegabeasts.

i think heroes is also influenced by the amount and proficiancy of all the soldiers in a world.

For science:

Get a world with 'Age of Legends', make a fort, train ~100 or more heroes without killing any bypassing Megabeasts, and see if there will be an Age change at New Year.

in a smaller or pocket world as well

As I stated way back on the second page:

Age of Heroes: Occurs when there are a lot of elite/legendary military around.  As I recall, somebody was able to show that you could actually TRIGGER the Age of Heroes in Fortress mode by building a large enough military(or whipping out a couple extra megabeasts).

Yes, you can trigger the Age of Heroes with a large and proficient enough military.  It helps to whip out megabeasts, but the information we have implies that simply have a huge military will trigger the Age of Heroes.

I think I have to stop modding for a while and test it by myself, because I still don't believe it. I mean, it's 'Age of Heroes' because you made army of Heroes? It seems a bit, I dunno, *too easy* for me

But oh nevermind this small rant.

Maybe, but check the wiki for Heroes and Champions under Soldier.  It makes it very clear that your soldiers literally become 'heroes' and then 'champions' as they gain a lot of experience.  It stands to reason that having a lot of heroes or better could lead to the Age of Heroes.  Really, it's a wonder there isn't an Age of Champions for us to trigger.

Plus, we have the one guy that did it.

I ran a world for 5000 years and it just went from age of myth to legends then in year 200 it became the age of heroes and didnt change for the last 4800 years
