[Tnx]

So I went to the ruin directly east of the starting town.  Hard enemies but I managed to get out of it.  I got a carbide longsword, Issachari Banner, slender steel plate, and lots of grenades.  That stuff is probably chump change to you guys but it makes me happy!  Thanks for the tip on the ruins guys.

EDIT: Did quest line to get the Joppa Recoiler, acts like a town portal.

Has anyone found a datadisk yet? I cant get my hands on one, even after hours of playing this little gem.

[Tarran]

AARGHGJGHFHFGGFFJG. QUILLIPEDS! You're impossible to beat in melee but I ran out of freaking ammo for my guns. And I had a freaking(broken, though I could've bought a fixing spray from the trader) chaingun AGAIN.

Sigh, another enemy that ruins my good runs.

You mean the one that gives information allowing you to build something as a tinker? If so, yes, I did once. But haven't since.

[Tnx]

You can buy data disks off of Argyve for 107.  I just got that quest line too.

Huh, the ruin generation seems to be random. I searched a large part of the swamp—committing mass genocide against Glow pads, fish, and crocs as I went bumping my praetorian to level 6—and found nothing. However, I found the ruins completely by accident north of the town between red rock and the town in one of the squares. Let's see what kind of loot I can get without dying.

Also, I think I've figured out how many screens are in a world map's tile; 9. Each world tile is a 3x3 screen's worth of area.

EDIT:OH GOD FIRE ANTS WHAT THE HELL?!

Edit2: Oh god fireantdeathflame. Ouch, that hurt.

[Pillow_Killer]

Fire ants is the only way my 2-3 hours++ characters eve die. You can extinguish your ass with a chill only oh so often.

Oh my god floating glowsphere

Anyone knows how to disable forcefields? I cant penetrate them, so destroying not an option, electric discharges dont, and I just ran out of ideas.

You can also used stocked up water.

Man, you are lucky, that's just what my Praetorians need. Too bad it's likely way too far into the game for my guy.

I would answer, but I never got that far due to horrible monsters murdering me non-stop.

[Tnx]

So I attacked and killed one of those neutral E guys, and then all the ones in the level are chasing me.. and chasing... there's about 5 of them on my tail.. My guy is kinda too slow to kite, I take hits if I try to go diagonal.  I'm savescumming this one because I think I'm screwed.  Any ideas on how to handle this?

[Singularity-SRX]

So I got it to work, and it's pretty awesome!

I raided the houses and just stole anything that was useful, then went and killed the zealot guy, but no-one got pissed at me

Am I the only one who likes to play true human tinkerer?
I love being able to create my own stuff and actually knowing what these artifacts are is really useful

For people getting headaches trying to spot enemies on the screen: just hold the alt key for a second. All creatures nearby will be marked green, makes it much easier to find your targets.

For people trying to get the elder out of his house in town: just lead an enemy back to town and he will come out of his house to attack and kill it. I discovered this by accident when running from two tortoises in the beginning of the game.

How do you get new skills in this game, or is it not possible? I'd like to get the tinkering skill. I'm currently doing the quest for the tinker in the town, will that do it?

Go to the skills screen, you can buy them there.

Anyway, a mutation point got eaten again, with stunning force. Can I really upgrade only my flaming hands and triple joints?

EDIT: Hahaha, I tried to burn down a wall and ended up setting the whole cave level on fire and now theres so much smoke I cant see the exit.
EDIT2:My save is now 400mb.

[Sappho]

I just found and killed my first named creature: Scurdoubuugoow, the fleet-footed Snapjaw Gutspiller.  Whose guts are spilled now, Scurdoubuugoow? >P

Honestly this game is just about everything I've ever wanted DF Adventure mode to be.

[cerapa]

The game broke now.

Apparently my level 11 save is now busted. Dont think Im gonna play another game of this until the next version.

Urgh...
Any idea on how to pick up items if they're on the same square as a chest? I was carrying too much so I couldn't move, and had to drop them there

Edit:
Aaaaannnd I just died. Was going to red rock and there were some ruins, so I checked them out, and got killed TWICE over, first from a something mortar, and a second time (at the same time) by an explosion
