I'm a vampire/werelizard/necromancer with a torn motor nerve in my leg. I'm chilling out in a village until I turn and insta-heal. I walk into this guy's house and my zombie minions start beating him down. I decide this is a fine place to squat so I try to rest. The guy interrupts me to ask if he can help me with anything to force me to either ask politely to stay at his house or leave.  A zombie knocks him unconscious and I try to sleep again. He wakes up, interrupts me to ask if he can help me with anything and passes out from the pain. This repeats until he dies. No force in earth or hell can stop this guy from getting a little common courtesy.

Watch out when you do turn into wereform, I found out with an earlier adventurer that your own zombies turn on you when you go werebeast. I already have a bug report in for it.
But thats not a bug.  Id say its a feature.  You turn into a non-night creature, non-opposed to dead berserk creature.  The only thing not out for your blood should be other were___ (whatever you are).

Why would you turning into a mindless, unrecognizable, non-speaking monster not make your zombies go hostile?

Can you become were and vampire at the same time? I knew you could do vampire/necro and were/necro but I didn't know you could become all three.

Maybe with modding?

Well, there is a bug around where zombies can become hostile to the necromancer, so I decided to report that just in case it actually is a bug. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.

Nope. My wait was in vain as I never turned. Stupid nerve damage.

Also, fun fact about werebeasts- if you animate their dismembered parts you get an undead, undamaged, version of the person they were when not in beast mode.

Uhh this happen on my tree fort while I was planning out to test if I could build traps on the sides of my house... figure I better sleep only to wake up to find
a twisted capaybus pops up in my character's bedroom like among my companions and this is how my adventurer felt when I got prompted 4 questions asking what to say to the guy. Strange how this only happens if the person you're talking to never can talk back. The save is set back one day, so I have just enough time to recruit enough men, and build enough ammo to fire at the incoming foe. Just kinda bummed that this happen right when I'm tired of building my house.

man 40.0x seems to keep sending me demons, and I love it.

I haven't even started a new adventurer yet, and I already can tell this world will be fun.

There are only 2 human civs. One owns the entire coast of the generated region. The other is a single hamlet.

I am not sure who I should join. The huge empire or the little village...

I hadn't played DF in a while until this weekend, due to some life stuff getting in my way, but my God, the new climbing and jumping mechanics are awesome. Now I feel like a monkey and a ninja combined! (Although this has lead to me jumping out of trees to my horrible death more than once.) I haven't had the chance to try it out yet, but I want to see if I can leap down from a tree and pounce on somebody.

Is it now possible to get steel equipment for non-dwarf starts (since Dwarf Forts are accessible)?. I raided an apparently abandoned dwarf fort and found nothing but iron.

Also, I love the new stealth mechanics, I started off as a peasant, and was still able to kill a band of bandits by waiting until they fell asleep and then silting their throats one-by-glorious-one.

Got shot in the face at point-blank range with a crossbow by a bandit chief. I lived, but my nose will never be the same...:(

Went to visit my fort that had fallen to boredom and HFS. Just before I reached the site, night fell.

Great. Another delay. First 20 minutes wasted because of the mountain, now this. Owell.

Three ambushes that night. Once false positive, another one for a bushmaster, and the third for...

A motherfucking demon.

Went to fight it. Died in 15 seconds. One companion died right after me, another one managed to fight on for another minute before dying. I discovered that you can still use the a key and ., keys when you are dead. And the w and p keys.

Later I realized that this was the same kind of demons that attacked my fort, so the whole place must have been stuffed with them.

Goddammit!

The best way to demonstrate it to him is take a save of 40 year old fortress with 150 dwarves in it on a good sized embark with a volcano that just breached the circus and install it on his gaming rig and watch it bring his rig to its knees.

Just got in a fight with a goblin vampire. I'd been bitten by a wereibex, and tonight was when I'd transform. I'm a hammerlord and a sword master, with great master armour user and proficient dodging. My physical stats were nearly maxed out. Striking, biting, kicking, wrestling, and throwing were all master. I was an elf, covered in masterwork steel, my hammer was a platinum artifact, my sword a steel longsword artifact. This was a vampire spearman. After tons of fighting, mostly me dodging and him daftly deflecting my blows, I turned into my wereibex form. I'd just gone even with a vampire for ten minutes irl, I was so proud of myself! I grabbed my weapons and managed to crush a leg, then cut off the arms then legs. Blood. I collected all the blood I could and left the vampire to bleed out, if that's possible. On my way to my retired fortress to drop this blood in the well, I got the ambush! message. I check, it's just a few human soldiers. Easy kills! I killed them all but one. And that one somehow got me with his pike, right in the chest. I started bleeding out. I quickly decapitated him, but I bled out right there, before I could ever transform again. Dammit. At least I bit dozens of villagers as a wereibex, now I have over one hundred wereibex's running around the world at least.

The shops (what passes for shops anyway) and the trade depot don't have steel stuff, you'll have to trade them off (my method is just to use those free-to-grab clothes stuff in the forts residential areas for trade) of the soldiers in the fort. For human size gear, you'll have to look in the hillocks where there is a chance of the human mercenaries having steel gear.

When the other party can't answer you tend to talk to yourself.
