The Land of Strangers...and DEATH
« on: December 05, 2009, 02:12:22 am »
Soooo..I've decided to try dig deeper for the first time, and thought it would be fun to write about it too. Just so you know, I have very little experience with military, and for practice I've embarked in a sinister area...I don't expect this story to be long, but who knows.
_________________________________________________________________
"Gah! Why was my bed deconstructed so early! I demand to know answer's King!" yelled Quinn, after storming into the throne room.

"Last night my kitten and I have decided to send you on an important mission..we have been at war with the Goblins a long time, and those pesky orcs (dig deeper mod) have seemed to be stirring up trouble. You will go deal with them, and make a colony while you are at it."

"But...but I have no experience with the military! This is absurd!"

"So sorry, I can't hear in one ear, it's a noble thing..anyway, here are the maps for the area that you will dig Catelders in..."

"Catelders, really?"

"Yes, Mr. Scruffy my cat came up with it...anyway, here's the maps."

The king pulls out some ancient maps:


"You will embark immediately, I can spare 30 dwarves for your crew."

"30? I thought the standard was 7..."

"What did you say? Oh it doesn't matter, good bye!" the king says, before dozing off.

"Oh great...I better leave before he wakes up.."
Quinn shudders in fear!

To exist or not exist, that is the query. For whether it is more optimal of the CPU to endure the viruses and spam of outragous fortune, or to something something something.

"OH LORD" Quinn yells, before burning to death.

(There were three Ogre Magi, being a mod, I didn't know they could shoot fire...)
Everyone has been struck down. End of story.

Right now Rampages seem to be Godzilla quietly walking into Tokyo, biting the leg off of one reporter... then creeping off again without a sound.

There are dwarves that are nothing but useless sacrifices - Miners are not one of them.

In order to improve the universe's frame rate, we must all throw rocks into volcanoes and then do absolutely nothing, worldwide, for a week, to take pressure off pathfinding.

I thought I might last a little bit longer.  ::)

I am now thoroughly scared of the orcs mod. And twwolfe, you would be correct...OOTS FTW!

From my experience, the orcs in Did Deeper seem to be nastier than those in the Orc mod itself.

The speed of this fort's death is ridiculus.  You should try again on a haunted shore.   ;D

It's a combination of me having no experience at fighting, and the mod, and the horrible FIRES OF DOOM!

I don't suppose any of those fireballs hit wagons full of alcohol?
