Fate- The Questionable Succession Fort(31.25)
« on: June 30, 2011, 06:45:08 pm »

After playing some successcion forts, I think I might try my hand at one I make.

This is what we're playing with, a 5x6 square:


Lore:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We are playing under the Rocks of Speech dwarven civilization.

RULES:
-Do not kill the fort.
-Do not kill the leader (me).
-Do not DFhack without my permission.
-Do not Runesmith.
-You have 4 days to play an entire year. If you are working on something big, I am giving you 2 in-game months after your year is up to finish it. If it not finished, you must end your turn and load the save up to DFFD. Then next person after you will compensated to get a year and 2 months, then it will revert back to a year. You must also put up some SS of what your working to be able to get two extra months.

Failure to follow any of these rules will result in not playing any of my succession forts anymore.

This isn't an actual rule, but it's recommended you put your turn into story form instead of diary form, an example is here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=85057.0. It's also HIGHLY recommended you use puncuation and use proper grammar.


IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE DWARFED:
Dwarf Name:
Custom Profession(If preferred):
Gender:
*Civilian Skills:
*Military Skills:
Dual-wield:
Prefrences for your Dwarf:
*For the Civilian and Military Skills, if you do not want to have either skills from one of those, just put no.

EXAMPLE

Dwarf Name: G
Custom Profession(If preferred): None
Gender: M
Civilian Skills: No
Military Skills: lvl 5 axedwarf, lvl 5 dodger
Dual-wield: Yes
Prefrences for your Dwarf: Rage very quickly

Can we use DFvdig so we can auto designate veins to be mined out?

Also, what about quantum dumping?

I might get in. Depends on how busy I am

DFvdig: Yes.

I'm not sure what quantum dumping is, but I'm guessing it's the use of something to put items in the dump pile, so yes.

Basically quantum dumping is compressing all that loose stone into one or two single tiles. The method is by setting a single or double tile garbage zone using (i) ->(g) and then mass dumping practically everything your dwarves don't haul around using d>b>d and selecting what you want to dump.

The uses are to make your masons/stone crafters stop running halfway across the map just to grab a stone they feel is perfect for their task. Instead, the stone is already handily next to the main access stairway located in the center of the fortress?

I'll join then. Sign me up for #2.

Read plenty of succession forts, figured I should toss my hat in the ring

Sign me up for one of the late-early turns. Saaaay... 4-7th. I've had some trouble with sieges in my  own games (i.e: Getting a decent military to not become pincushions in under five seconds), but this early on, it shouldn't be a problem.


Dwarf Name: Teak
Custom Profession(If preferred): None
Gender: M
Civilian Skills: Mechanic, Architect, Brewer - Distribute the points as you see fit, with brewing taking priority, then mechanics
Military Skills: No
Dual-wield: N/A
Preferences for your Dwarf: Salty demeanor. Extreme hatred for all things wooden and related to wood


Also, someone's going to need to explain how to put the save up on DFFD, and put screenshots in here. Thanks :3

A dwarf is nothing but an alcohol fuelled beard with the IQ of a parsnip, and that's insulting to the parsnips.

Ok, we are set to go, but first i have to find my spot again. DF decided it'd be funny to delete my note.

Unless you actually start a fort when looking at the map the game doesn't save any of your notes.

Katana, do you wanna dual-wield?

Also Pisano, we've ran out of males. Would you like a female instead or wait until the first migration wave for a male?
