Are buildings hidden until built, or how exactly do they work?

[Angle]

Hidden? What do you mean? You won't know that someone's built something until you run into it. If you mean the descriptions for buildings, I add those to the OP when I think to. If you want me to add something, just ask.

Would you please add Docks, Keeps, and Lumber mills also is it possible for me to make a city in a lake?

[Angle]

Sure. as for the lake, yes, but it's not cheap. That would require a whole lot of wood to make pilings, and you'd need to rebuild the place every often, what with the sinking. And you'd need to do a whole lot of reinforcing to build anything large or sturdy. So while possible, it's not remotely practical.

Also, for the rest of you, here's an interesting event that adwarf ran into. We RP'ed it by PM and I am posting the transcript here for the rest of you.

Spoiler: Transcript (click to show/hide)

As Romulus sends out his men, a figure appears from the wood. It is flanked by a giant wolf, and flowers blossom at it's feet. As it draws closer, Romulus find that he cannot tell whether it is a young maiden, a mature woman, or an aged crone. When she is within a few yards, she speaks with a voice like thunder "Cutting down the trees at the edge of my forest was bad enough, but now you want to despoil my heartland? How dare you?"

"Wait wait please calm down we are new to these lands, and did not know they were so precious to you. Please accept our apology we are truly sorry for hurting your forest if we had known we would not have harmed it, but instead asked you if there was something we could do to help preserve it. Please understand that we did not mean to harm your forest we just want our people survive to, but if the forest is important to you then we will find another way to get our lumber, so please do forgive us." said Romulus as he knelt before the maiden.

The Strange woman scowls at you, a look of contempt on her face. "Then get out. Go to your
kindred in the plains, and leave my home alone."

"We are sorry for the mistake made, and we will leave to our kindred, but first I must ask you. Why is this forest important to you, and would you risk your life to protect? Please do not take that statement as a threat also could you give us some help in reaching our kindred once our talk is done?" said Romulus as he stood up, and stared intently at the angry maiden in front of him.

The crones Scowl darkens visibly. "I am a spirit of the earth, this forest is my flesh and blood. As long as it lives, so do I. Your petty blades are no threat to me. Your kindred are to the northeast. Now go! Before you try my patience any more."

" Fine then we shall take our leave, and I will tell my kindred that these lands are yours, and that those who cause harm to it shall be condemned to death. May your lands forever be in peace, and may no harm come to your forests. " said Romulus as he stood up,a nd hastened back to camp to gather the settlers, and begin the journey to the northeast.

The spirit disappears into the trees without a word.

Romulus travels for a few days, and comes to a bustling encampment in the plains, just like the spirit said. Asking for the leader, he is directed to Boss Sillus Gaius.

Also can I have a map of the current surrondings so I cna find a place for my fishing village?

[Angle]

[adwarf]

Ok thanks also sorry for all of the questions.

[Angle]

Nah, it's fine. I don't mind questions.

[adwarf]

This a pretty neat idea I just hope I don't die in the span of eight turns.

[Sheb]

You can have Miners/Farmers?

Well, anyway Lord Taric I was hoping you would move near us. We have food aplenty, but shall need wood for our homes.

"Men, look at that wheat and those lentils! We shall not go hungry anymore. I want 4 of you to plant the last field with onions, leeks, herbs and all kind of vegetables, to bring some diversity to our diet.

The landscapers will prepare the land for a large housing building containing 30 bedrooms. The other 13 of you will go and gather more wood."

[Taricus]

Edited the turn.

[Angle]

your units can indeed have multiple specialties, although gathering labors are easiest, because the specialized gathering labors do not require the gathering skill. the building and crafting specialties require the building and crafting skills, and as such you can't bring units with more than one of those specialties in the beginning. Also note that because his units do not have gathering, they will only work at the laboring 50% in gathering skills other than the ones they have as specialties.

on another note, Toaster is away for a few days right now, right?

[Toaster]

PFP, but back tonight. I can flesh things out then.

" Romulus, is it?  Your men are more than welcome here if you can work!  We're a bit tight on food, so if you can have yours gather that, we're getting our buildings up.

Something strange in the forest?  I'll let the men know to steer clear until we know what we're dealing with"

"Let's go!"


Builders build housing.
Farmers hunt with bows.
Miners mine and choppers chop.

[adwarf]

" I wish to put a law in action regarding the forests to the Southwest. All that harm any trees of the forests there will be sentenced to death this is for both their safety, and I have also promised the keeper of the forest that I would do so, and thus I will keep my promise." said Romulus
