Newbie Tips Comics
« on: April 28, 2011, 10:51:59 am »

Have you seen the Dwarf Fortress Comic post? Great. This post is like it, Give people newbie tips. But with comics instead of plain text. This post was a little created for myself, because i'm not that good at the game. Start pumping out, no matter if your good or not at making comics. I've made an example picture(Wich sucks) http://img822.imageshack.us/i/dwarffortressnoobtips1.png/

Oooo.... I like this idea!

*two hours later, has scribbles*

Will colour and post tomorrow. It's also on miasma, as it's mostly just a test run. If people like it, I'd be happy to make more. ^^

So Ledi's been training the cats into an army of disposable warbeasts?  Why did no-one think of this sooner?!
Hellcannon seemed to be constantly on the verge of death and Levergedon before my turn helped, but ultimately what killed it was Ledi's cat army.

Three more noob tips: http://img842.imageshack.us/i/dwarffortressnoobtips23.png/

Bah, my two favoritest fortresses were settled on aquifers, and I settled both as a n00b. It's not so bad. If anything, it's more fun and gives a place character.

Maybe you could have included a "You can turn these off in init.txt" or something. I don't know the exact details, but you can turn those annoying alerts off.
