As I said I want to make more badass weapons, and I don't want them to be avaliable from the start.

An "invention" system which was in some mod before was too bulky, so some rare reagents' requirement looks like a better idea to me.

[TomiTapio]

Axebow sounds nice because the morons cannot carry both a crossbow AND a dagger. I made crossbow a better bashing instrument.

Or, just a worse-shooting crossbow with a BLADE attached. So choose between regular crossbow and half-and-half crossbow. Or with stab-spike half the power of a dagger.
The bowdorfs die so often because their crossbow is such a horrible melee weapon.

Hard to make, huh? Hmm... instead of 'tine, could require 4-10 cut gems, or mixing redsteel and blacksteel for the special ammo.

Rephikul, the trap-component serrated disc is the size of a table.

[rephikul]

Not that hard, you can just reuse the current serrated discs. 1 serrated disc -> 1 lauchable disc. Same size same stat same everything. Since ammos dont tend to log into the body, it'd be ridiculously expensive yet readily accessible.

EDIT: I dont think you can put many of these in a quiver, either. Never tried, tho.

[Deon]

The dwarves will only carry one stack which is 1 disc so it won't really work... Plus I consider them overpowered for ammo, I will make smaller stuff.

Anyway, I've decided to make a Phoebus version before I move on to the next version.

[Deon]

Okay, I've uploaded the version with the Phoebus tileset.

[Ovg]

Yay! More tilesets is always a good thing.
Could we ask for a sneak peak of the new races?

[Samohan25]

I guess any of the possible weapons will do, but still, my question about the workshops stands, will there be two workshops for several weapons? Is it even possible to add reactions to old buildings?

The phoebus tileset you packaged uses green trees btw, this means that trees with different colours (or markers for mirthfull forests) don't seem to appear correctly, is this just me?

Looks like it's probably just me, I changed it and the trees remained the same. Still, why change the tree colour?

And either you've changed some pictures in both versions with the Phobus release or you've forgottern to take out some new art, there are two files with the dwarf pictures and new race jobs edited over them.

Some creatures need their tiles redefined, harmless minnows show up as rocks on this one.

Steel dwarves are bugged or something, their speed always remains 1290 no matter how much they train it seems. I made demi-god steel dwarf with super agility and i got legendary shield user, legendary armor user, legendary thrower, legendary axe user, legendary fighter, legendary dodge, and i still got my initial speed of 1290.

I plan to move anubites into a race category (with many items derived from ezrakim elves and some new), also I will make centaur raiders. Those two civs will be early-mid menace along with werewolves so the game will become harder.

Also a race of small critters, I am still designing them. They will trade with you. They will sell gems and trade rare toys which will be convertable into gems.

There will be a runecrafter's workshop which will turn gems into runes. Specific gems will be required for specific runes. Also adamantium will be used to create ANY type of rune. I think I will go with a single workshop. These runes will be used to make "advanced" items.

The tree color is white because I have colored trees (green leaves/brown trunk), I dislike green trunks.

The "rock" is a small dot tile, I replaced some vermin with it I think... Yeah, minnow should look like a fish, I will change it.

This is strange, even with low agility they have the same speed. I looked into raws and couldn't find a reason right away, I will look into it .

That's not what I meant, the Phoebus tileset (the original) has completely white trees but in-game the trees actualy have brown trunks, your implemented Phoebus seems to have all trees precoulored with brown trunks and green leaves, meaning that in-game all trees have the same (more or less) colour, as opposed to the some trees having other colours (Full white/full brown)

Sorry about the description, I'm not so good with explinations.

btw: I really like the rune idea, it would fit in well with the game, any ideas on the labor to use or the amount of runes?

[SalmonGod]

Sounds like a great way to make gems more relevant to the game.  I'm also glad you're adding some upgraded dwarven weaponry, since it's seemed like the enemy usually has deadlier weapons.

[Deviled]

Is there any way I could get Genesis in a non rar file.

[Torgan]

Ow werewolves hurt!  (And doors don't stop them) First siege about a year in and they wiped 5 of my 10 man military in steel.  They had bugger all skills though so that might have had had something to do with it.

Are werewolves meant to arrive on mounts, one of them was on a sand antlion.  Definitely makes it more challenging though, I hadn't found it that hard to survive so far.

[Samohan25]

Same for me, I locked the doors and waited untill they left but even after training a military for 3 years they failed against them, markdwarves might be better against werewolves in a fledgling fortress.

Which version do you want?
