[Kilroy the Grand]

My fortresses have become stale, boring, sedate. I WISH FOR GLORY! Please, if any of you fine dwarfs have a seed to a map with a rather nice freshwater lake, or perhaps an interesting sinister desert, I would be forever grateful!

Although, any interesting maps or ideas would be accepted with grateful cheers.

1. Don't use traps.
2. Play only in freezing evil regions.
3. Colonise hell.
4. Build a tower out of ice.
5. Start a eugenics project in the endless search for the perfect cavy boar.

Any of the above, really.

Not a map, but something that will work in any world.

Embark somewhere completely flat. Probably a desert. It'll work with hills, etc, but it's harder.

Make a castle or something. A megaproject. By digging everything around it.
A massive castle constructed from unmoved ground. Land a giant crater around it. You can even see the individual soil layers rising up the sides.
I'm working on this right now. I embarked in hills, because I wanted trees and rock, not sand.


You could also look around for a flat volcano. A few have come up recently, and those are pretty cool.

... one embark at a time? 

[Poindexterity]

find a spot where three biomes meet, and a river splits off in two directions.

there's bound to be interesting and inspiring landscape there to jumpstart your imagination.

Try not digging underground. Ever. Live like an elf in other words. Except you know, with more tree cutting.

That's more or less human, just less digging.

Well, it is less dwarvenly (is that even a word?), so it ought to be different

[Yoink]

Using extremely long, thin embark areas, build a road across a continent, and pave it with skulls.

[Lexx]

Colonize the caverns at the start. Extra fun to be had if its under an evil biome for the undead inhabitants. Oh and make it somewhere with no minerals.

Im trying to create a world with flat volcanoes in Perfectworld, but I cant seem to get it right.

Before you abandon, test your dwarfs against the HFS (if you haven't already)

Go to wordgen.txt and replace [VOLCANO_MIN:4] with [VOLCANO_MIN:4000]
You world gen will constantly fail until it gives a popup/error thingie where you must selecet 'ingore all error' and it will give you a world filled with volcanoes at weird places.

I saw someone made a continent-spanning Great Wall a while back. Can't remember who or what that was, though.

I've tried this. Without random fires in the game, it's not much fun.
