Dwarf Troopers
« on: March 12, 2010, 07:31:48 pm »
I checked around the forum and didn't find this, so here's my idea :


                        DWARVEN STORMTROOPERS!!!     :o

I will make them bone armor, an entire suit, so it's white like the actual troopers from the movies, then I give them a cross bow and there ya go. I can have an awesome army of Marksdwarves that I just rename to StormTroopers.


Has this been done before?

No I'm not psychic. I just know that this is dwarf fortress. and the most stupidly awesome and inexplicable thing is probably going to be the first thing to happen.

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

Or not, considering bone armor and everything.

They won't reach high marksdwarf level due to the fact that they will be slaughtered cause of bad armor.

You do not understand the ways of Toady One. He is not a business, he's just a guy trying to make a fun game. He's invited people to come along and experience the journey with him (and help him test it out as he goes along). At the end of the day, I don't think his main goal is to sell Dwarf Fortress, its just to create the best game possible.

You basically win if you mod in lightsabers and have your leader as a champion swordsman.

If possible, make "Jedi" as its weapon profession...

More like, have a dungeon master and rename him to Darth Sidious with profession " Emperor " and another guy with leather armor and a modded ligthsaber whom I'll call Darth Vader.

Equip a large force of your army with a sword called "vibroblade". Mod in a white steel for your armor... basically MAKE Star Wars.

We dont destroy cities... we just cover them in magma.

And Stas, it doesnt require coding. Just extensive changing of the raw objects.
