hey deon when you say you'll make the races optional in a future update will that also mean you can have some on and some off for example keep the "keepers" and take the rest off?

Can one smelt sun gold and if so whats the reaction? Choosing a baron was kinda sprung on me as I didn't know the mechanics for getting one was changed so I just picked one my my favorite guys and... he apparently likes sun gold.

Melt down some sun gold items.  I'd be surprised if you don't have some, or haven't been offered any by traders.  Re-forge into whatever your baron wants.

Well thankfully I had some bars I'd already bought but I hadn't bought any other sun gold items as I wasn't expecting this, I take it sun gold is only something you can trade for then?

A random speardwarf killed a wyvern 

But then the acid breath killed her 


I had her personal room carved out and everything...

Yes, it's what it means. I want to use this because it has a nice GUI, but it has some issues now, so it has to wait for some time.

Yes, it comes from ezrakim elves. So you have to trade for it. Or loot it .

Yeah, some guys in my mod are too nasty... I personally have a "death squad" consisting mainly of recruits which I use to kill those critters which are likely to kill many. Those who survive and gain enough skills or kills transcend into a veteran squad which I try to save.

Really Deon? Really?! Every time a Ezrakim caravan comes, it's followed by a Demon siege. Who are all on giant bats. And have around 12 ogres. And then a Centaur siege comes, and you can't forget the three or four Kobold ambushes. I lost my two year old fort that had only around 52 dwarfs because my smelting and depot was open to the air, which the demon hordes on giant bats exploited quite nicely.

At least in my new fort I'll have an idea of what I will be dealing with.

I have a question about crafting in Genesis. I tried to make bone gauntlets, but found that I couldn't wear them. So I removed all of my armor and watched as my naked adventurer failed to put them on. The same thing happened when I tried to make leather gloves. Is there any way to fix this, or shall my hands and lower arm forever be unprotected?

[Jacob/Lee]

Well, atleast the guy that engraved her tombstone was up-to-date on current events:

I have a 100+ dwarf fortress that only gets illithid even though all other races are present. I've had time to make a semi-mega project. I wish I could get what you have because then all the testing I'm doing around my project could be put to use.

*snickers* Ya know I almost wish I had done an LP of this fort at time. A pet turkey someone brought managed to kill a trollkin. How you ask? By both of them dodging off a cliff right on top of a stonefall trap. Like to think the trollkin wasn't paying attention while chasing the turkey, ran off the ledge, fell on the trap, the turkey flutters down onto the kins chest, kin looks at it, then trap deploys stone (I imagine some sort of swinging arm since theres no ceiling above it) and kills kin via headshot.

Hahaha i have a 4 Z level winding path way down to my depot but i forgot to install a draw bridge so i had 2 caravans of elves in the depot when a centaur siege gallops down the path and the trade depot room becauses a fucking blood bath as my lone xbow dwarf watches from the death slits wondering why his bolts are taking so long to make. Its perfect since i dont need to run all around to haul off the corpses/loot.

Quickfort is fucking awesome--i converted the massive fractal bedroom designs into muli purpose designs so my forts going to look awesome.

peat is something of a mixed blessing, on the one hand you have the coke it yields, on the other since you made peat a rock it no longer supports above ground farming.

Ever since my first successful fortress died due to werewolves, i'm starting to get scared of no protection. I've started making traps, walls-scratch that, ALOT of walls, and starting to make catapults.

[Lamphare]

a kobold managed to torn a couple arteries of my doorkeeping war dragon raptor and eventually let it exsanguinate, the kobold ran away with only bruises.
also a mastiff and a giant bat managed to kill a left behind werewolf, both almost unharmed.
many more unexpected events had happened since i started playing genesis....
