Turns out the dark fort I was aiming to go first to is further south and a lot more further west. Where I went to just now was only a dark pit with a bunch of "regular" civs around it and then some. I say "regular" because those civs have the disguise of default civs but the creatures in them mostly fall under the side of evil or somewhere in-between in Warcraft lore.
Decided to leave those civs alone since they didn't even attack me on sight. Killed some bogeymen during my nightly travels, killed a few dozen zombies (at the evil mountains to the west of the dark pit), dingos (large ambush) and a few other creatures until I looked at the legends world map and saw where I wanted to go. Had to backtrack to what looks like a muddy river or a road and then turned west.
There has already been so much variety of creatures in my travels and trying to recall them all is rather problematic to put it mildly. Like the zombies I ran into, there were so many different reanimated corpses lumbering about on the mountains and near the mountains, zombie kaliri, zombie djinns, zombie mountain gryphons, zombie worgs and then some. Which begs the question, who's resurrecting them there as there are no towers other than a nearby dark fort some map-tiles away which hasn't popped up on my in-game adv map yet.
edit: I've arrived at that dark fort which is called Gungkeldabu "Blockcorrupt", a good ol' goblin place with fel orcs and goblins by the looks of things.
I think I'm finally gonna get my inner Khorne satisfied now in this game. edit2: Nope. The massacre is seriously hampered by the lag of how many npcs there are.. see, this is why I prefer playing in 5-year old worlds. Anything older than 5-10 years gets tedious to move around. Guess I'll off the civs with evil creatures in them after all.
edit3: Bleh, I just seem to run into bad luck with this game over and over again (
this is why I tend to take long breaks) despite my witchcraft. Seeing as this is a common occurrence for everyone with the game anyway, I'm just gonna start a much younger world in 44.12 and bypass building and minimize the crafting hassle with dfhack and go straight to overpowered murder spree with my spawned items and let the history buffs in the legends wonder where I got my godly artifact items from.
edit4: Good grief, I have genned about half times younger world now which loads and save way faster and yet the dark fort I spawned near still brings the game to crawling halt of dreadful 1-0 FPS nightmare inside the damn fort. Fuck that.
The hell with dark forts, I'd nuke them from orbit at this point for all I care. I'm gonna instead find a random civ and massacre it with reckless abandon because I've wasted too much time planning and preparing to increase my killcount by the hundreds in previous worlds in this game for far too long and I'm tired of it, I'm tired that I can't get it done due to whatever fetid problems impeding my way.. so I'm changing my mindset and remove the sanity because that perfect-ish place, story and time will not seem come anyway so fuck that, fuck planning, fuck building (for a while) and hello to the blissful state of CHIM and the ecstasy of maiming, killing and burning!!!
Other than that this new adventure world I'm gonna approach with less thought put into in favor of casual hacking and slashing therapy I need. Enabled AT_PEACE_WITH_WILDLIFE for my re-created mutant draenei lass god-creature so I don't have to see pages and pages of pointless animal encounters cluttering up my screen of slain beasts and people I wanna brag about in-game.
edit5: Much better now! First "regular" civ I stumbled upon happened to be a cultist human civ. Perfect place to wipe clean and vent my frustrations and anger away.
edit6: Saw a few tombs, went into one pyramid tomb and found out that the mummy in it fights real nasty as it raised dead constantly, the mummy was some ascended cultist human who was some elemental something with gemstone in the head (brain?). Battle took while until I decided to chop all of their legs and mobility off and butchered their hands after lopping them off furiously, did that until managed to decapitated the fetid mummy finally and butcher its and its lackeys remains brutally into pieces with hatred. I only got "You feel horrible!" message when the mummy woke, the only one who's feeling horrible now is that mummy. Winning is fun.
