This just in, I walked into a dragon's lair, picked a coin off the ground and tossed it at the dragon and broke it's leg
Ah, so Throwing is still incredibly OP then, good to know. Some things never change, and I'm glad for that.

So. I can't seem to find the actual army. Anyone got advice on that?

Go and usurp the throne of the hamlet they were marching on, then retire, and some !!FUN!! times might ensue...

Just don't get too attached to your current adventurer.  :P

Well, if assassination isn't to your liking, retiring, and letting time pass might still prove heaps of fun. :P

Tempting. It says that groups have already been fleeing, so maybe the invasion came and went. I went and wrecked the "kobolds" and their cave, so you'd think that would deal with them handily.

EDIT: Brained a lurking werecreature in her lair, on my way to a nearby tower. I might see about testing my maul against the undead.

EDIT 2: Well. A maul, after Adventurecraft buffs, works quite well on the undead. I went full Cataclysm on them and took a fair number with me, like any good moose would.

So ends the tale of Kamloc Hammertime the Ardent Kin, moose man.



102 notable kills, 15 other kills. Only a mere 9 zombies killed. ;w;

My first adventurer in the new version was an eagleman demigod with max agility and that standard "killing spree" stats. Had him charge flying at full speed towards a goblin swordsman, who promptly sliced his wing open, and killed him as he hit the ground.
Not used to being such a squishy creature, but I'm really interested to see how flying effects combat.

A "safe" way (and the quotation marks are purposefully as this is DF and nothing is safe there) for winged combat is to get "throw" and "archer/crossbow" skills and let death rain from above.
Tricky in caves.
Tricky with enemy archers (and very bad if you explode onto the ground after falling several z-level).
Tricky with flying undead keas - but in this case, everything would be tricky dealing with these.

Sneaking around from a distance and sniping is definitely buff.

You can train crossbow by getting crap ammo and just spam shooting the ground, remember.

Gonna make it easier to play a ghostventurer now that I can natively pick a flying race for it.

yeahhhhh don't know if toadyone fix the whole ghosts can't fly without naturally doing so due to no one figuring out a good way to prove it outside of "hey these ghosts aren't getting into my floating castle so now I'm ghost free."
like I may have got a undead corpse of my formal self done but getting an adventurer in fort mode to pull off that undead process is a dozy.
also has anyone got an adventurer night trolled yet? what's the process of pulling that off? talk to a night troll escape then retire and pray to rng that said night troll goes and kidnaps you?

Not a clue there, I disable night trolls and bogeymen, they bore me, though bogeyman dance parties is fun enough I may try it later.

I look forward to ghostventuring around with a native flier and recruiting a bunch of intelligent megabeasts and shit into a dance troupe if I can.

so uhh getting a dwarf companion to not die and caught in an endless war with zombie goblins who can also ressurect folks is hard,
also yeah Confirmed you can jump into the body of your original adventurer if you convince them to follow you and fast travel.
though this just makes my mod a case of quantum leap if you screw up resurrecting.
because now you have to
A.  find a dwarf nearby to resurrect you
B.  find where your now living corpse is going, due to ressurection going to boot you out of your body.
C.  convince it to join you
D.  Fast Travel to reunite
and after dying again I realize this is like someone knocking your head off and you need to find your body again, worst is if you die from dismemberment and the healer/ resurrects a part of you meaning you're now a hand thus any swift attack can kill.

over all seems to add more FUN when removing Death from the losing table.

Or shoggoth slime. X3
