I'm pretty sure that you can't use breath attacks in adventure mode but you can make a fire arrow and you can throw that at enemys.

a simple suggestion but...how about Sphinx's as mega beasts?  I notice you have many different mythologys implemented but you don't seem to be using egyption mythology.  Also, how about scarabs, mummies, etc.?  Just a thought^^

Why isn't there a readme in the download?

[Weaselcake]

Seriously, there needs to be a txt file that details this mess. I'm really confused and the wiki doesn't help and is lacking a lot of things.

Mummies are in and I thought about scarabs. A sphynx? Sounds cool .

Idea: Hows about a super rare caste centered on the Golem?

Its like a dwarf who has given himself so much to the earth that he lives in that even after death, he lives it out as the protector of it. (Military ++, Civilian - no.)

Just had this weird idea when thinking about "warriors of the stone." 

+ an Ironhand graphic dedicated to it maybe?

I can't seem to find any weapon/armor-making ore in a lot of the biomes I'm starting in. I've tried and it gives me a whole lot of errors including something about sharpening and melting...

thats just vanilla DF you can go into World Files and change mineral scarcity the lower number the more minerals

It includes regular rock too. I try making a rock shortsword and it says I need "sharpenable hard rock"... Whatever that is.

certain rocks not all rocks have the ability to be used as weapons but there crap last time i checked
If you look(k) and press enter on the rock it should say Sharp Weapons or something like that

i have two questions:

1. is the dragon raptor the most powerful creature you can bring with you at the start when you prepare for the journey carefully? of not what is?

2.  what controls what different types of creatures you can choose to bring? is it random? or is there a way to manipulate what creature is on the list when i prepare for my journey carefully?

sorry if my English is bad

Its were you embark if its god you get good creatures if its evil you get evil.
To find what animals come in a certain area in their raws they should have the tags either [GOOD] or [EVIL]

It is Obsidian (volcanic glass) that the reaction wants. Same as in vanilla DF. http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/DF2010:Obsidian

Genesis has rock spear and rock maul making at the stonecutter's workshop (which used to be called stonegrinder's)

1. it probably is. They have size, skills and speed.
2. adding [PET] and [COMMON_DOMESTIC] should make any creature bringable. If I recall correctly.
Provided that your civ can use the good/evil animals.

Civilizations (entities) have tags use_good_animals, use_evil_animals. So the goblins would only ride on evil beasts.

ps. my pc broke on Tuesday. Mainboard stopped talking properly to drives. Now using wife's gaming laptop for three days. Maybe on Monday we'll purchase a new 450 € (650 USD) desktop pc for me. Sad to see money flying away due to components breaking.

Alright, I guess I should ask permission here.
I'm maintaining a small Chinese community of DF players, meanwhile few fellows and I are localising/writing tutorials for new Chinese players.
And it kinda reaches the stage when many people feel vanilla DF is less hard to play, thus start to seek more challenge, somehow.
I played genesis mod extensively so I reckon I'd introduce it to my community.

So I want to ask permission from you, Deon, and TomiTapio, to repackage your mod/submod with(and only with) my hand-made Chinese manual for the mod and to distribute.
Is it okay?
