Icebeard (sucession game) Settle the ice wastes
« on: July 21, 2010, 01:46:13 pm »

Alright so I was messing with gen settings and got a world so epic it needs to have it's own succession game. The entire world freezing except for the southern tip. There are far too many monsters and not much life.

Now the mountain homes wish to know what lies in the vast ice wastes so an expedition of convicts is sent. No one expects them to survive, but the dwarven king is fair.

"I shall allow your group to vote on it's destination. While none of them are...desirable, I will give you the choice."




"First there is the Glacier of Fears. Despite its unfortunate name it borders the comparatively safe Gulf of Sacrifice. If things got too tough you could simply hide out on it's frozen surface. However it is very far away. So far away that no trade caravans would come your way and few migrants would brave the journey, even if you were able to establish yourself."





"Secondly, there is the Dismal Biles. This is a haunted swamp. You've probably heard of it. There are a lot of legends about it. It's actually not the ice wastes, but it has an aquifer that isn't going to freeze. Close to the humans, you'll get many caravans but try not to offend them. They tend to invade when you do that."





"Lastly you have the option of going to the Forest of Spoils. While this is close to civilization, there are things that are better off not mentioned living there."


Rules:

Anyone that want's a turn or to get dorfed post.
Only those dorfed/have a turn lined up can vote on which site we take.
Voting closes once we have 7 people lined up.
Names of dwarves cannot be excessively stupid.


Turn order:

1. Yaddy1
2. Dariush
3. Andreus
4. Lucus Casius
5. Eclipsetail
6. Geb
7. Kalrirr
8. Twobeard
9. Oglokoog
10. sdp0et
11. Urist Imiknorris
12. LAAT501legion

I'll sign up for this, plus I'd like to register a vote for the Forest of Spoils.

Also, give me whatever worldgen parameters you altered please.

I haven't embarked yet so you can pick whatever skills you want. I made the temperature range from 25 to -400 rather than from 75 to 25. I also made there 1000 titans, 1000 types of demons and titans attack earlier.

Oh, and voting for Forest of Spoils.

Lol could we do graphics?  :P

Or is there a way that just I could use graphics so you don't have to?
If not, it's okay. I'll learn.  :D

I vote for the forest.

I'd like a farmer/herbalist. XD

eclipsetail, you can just put the save into a df folder with the graphics pack loaded. Oh right just in case it wasn't implied we're using V 31.10.

Alright Geb you're added. However the forest already has the majority so unless someone changes their vote that's where we're embarking.

I'd like to take slot #7 if it's still open.
Also I'd like a female dwarf as the mason / architect if possible. Thanks :)
