At peace with goblins. What?
« on: April 07, 2011, 04:02:38 pm »
So, for some inexplainable reason, i found myself at peace with goblins, even after they sent a snatcher.



What gives? I thought goblins and dorfs were mortal enemies. How can i piss them off enough that they start attacking me?

Burning and raping the land is recreational. Where business is concerned, though, sustainability is the name of the game.

Send an army to conqu No, wait, that hasn't been implemented yet.

Wait for the army arc, and then send an army out to conquer them.

Or just kill all the snatchers, and hope they get mad.

Or maybe there's a god who's just completely insane and sends you to Detroit, Michigan in a new body if you ever utter the name "Pat Sajak".

Put captured snatchers infront of the trade depot when traders come. Then execute them. Then piss off the traders while trading. Then light them on fire.

Take that untrustworthy fiends!

They only sent one snatcher, and that was before i even thought of cage traps. Also, no merchants yet. If they come, i'll introduce them to Volcano McMagma, or something. Or drop a huge rock on their heads.

You can always let them out and drop a heavy object on them. Or let them out and apply magma.

I've been trying to gen a random world with peaceful goblins for the longest time now.

My ideal world is one where Gobbins and Dorfs team up against Humans and Elves.

...

Can you be at peace with a powerful kobold civilization?

Add [BABYSNATCHER] to the dwarf civ entry in entity_default.

You'll be most likely at peace with Goblins, but at war with the other non-babysnatcher civs.

An enemy none could stop or yield,

Without killing everyone's happytimes...

I'm also peaceful with goblins. Most of the time you're just ---- not WAR with them, especially if history has been kind. This means they still raid you and such, but will send sieges less often, are generally less aggressive etc. I believe it shows in the civs as 'P'.

I think it's the way towns develop now. In the beginning, people move into a town. Then they start producing tables, which results in more and more tables. Soon tables represent a significant portion of the population, they start lobbying for new laws and regulations, putting people to greater and greater disadvantage...
Link for full quote. 'tis mighty funny.

I see no problem with being at peace with goblins. I'm sure they're nice fellows once you get to know them.
