The problem is that most of that is impossible to do in DF's engine. Once the next update rolls around, Moulder can use warpstones to turn their Skaven into various monsters, but that will be it, I'm afraid.

It was more of an idea than insisting it be done, being an utter modding noob im not sure what IS possible. Though i do have a useful encyclopedia of pointless warhammer fluff squatting on my brain if anybody needs anything.

[Krantz86]

well guys i don't have 'nought time to ddeply test all the changes so i'll just upload the last version the skaven

PS:mrtspence i keep seeing dozen of typos in the chaos warrior raws, can you fix them in the next release please?

they won't bother the play very much but now i don't have the time  to fix 'em myself

Edit: done some testing... seems that the skaven have nearly 100% prob. of wiping out dwarves from mountains

[Karakzon]

Your going to have to see about modding HFS into THE WARP and put some more entertiys down their. Etc Etc.

Would also be good if you could modd in historical figures like Gotrex and Felix.

[Wannazzaki]

Interestingly that could be a result of using too many warpstone reactions in succession. Each consecutive result increases the % chance successively of opening up a rift and it spitting out an undefined number of betentacled gribblies, pulling a poor skaven in or generally causing chunky salsa rules around the portal until you get someone (Architecht? Explosives?) to close it...or just seal the room up and forget it ever happened. Blame your superior! Punish your inferior! Eat some warp stone! Inane rants over, does DF let you air drop in eldritch abominations?

[Crazy Cow]

I suppose that the Moulder reactions could have a chance of turning your Skaven into eldrich abominations, if you want. We can't create creatures, however, with the exception of bugged vermin, so that would be the best we could get, and it would need to wait until the next version.

[Wannazzaki]

Im just going to wait till it's as finished as it's ever going to get. It would add that second level of Fun to a fortress. Sealed from the outside world? Check. Self sufficient? Check. Moulder just had an idea and now we are all murderous blobs? Check.

[Teneb]

We could add historical figures to be "easter eggs", to be more specific: creatures or castes with an incredibly low chance of appearing. Dorfs have survived in skaven worlds I genned

Ya, the definition of some of those tokens changed and there is an issue with eyebrows on some creatures, or something to that effect, but they have literally 0 impact on any in-game anything, so they are lower on my list for fixing/improving things. I am also quite busy too, so I just seem to be having difficulty motivating myself to groom the raws for non-functional issues. I will remove these as I come across them for future patches though!



Deathsword, I feel like most of the Beastmen changes I would propose would be cosmetic. I would likely just remake the Great Altar to look like a big, bloodied slab of rock. I would also suggest instead of letting them use Blood Iron/Blood Steel/Chaos God Weaponry giving them some way to make a somewhat-inferior material from bones or something. I feel like Beastmen shouldn't be rocking around in suits of the finest armour, I've always seen them as a ravening horde armoured in bones and scraps wielding crude and brutal weapons. Just my humble opinion though, so don't rush to change anything as they are very functional as-is

[Shintaro Fago]

Bears HATE Bretonnians.


Also, there should be (clanless?) skavens lurking in the underground and waiting for the poor miners. A constant threat from the beginning seems like a proper grimdark idea.

Replace kobolds with clanless skaven/goblins/both, maybe?




I'll try and start working on a way to make a "reinforced bone 'bar'" then. Or a workshop that let's you turn metal bars into "scrap metal" bars. Or something.

[Karakzon]

shouldnt you replace kobolds with halflings?
or will they just be a skulking race that can talk?

[Stronghammer]

Have to say im loving this mod so far. First fort i was crushed by chaos. Second fort right now and I have to say slayers are awesome, first year weapon lords, for the win. Keep up the great work.

edit
OMG BY THE BEARD OF ARMOK, those juggernats of korne are BRUTAL, came in and tore off the right hand, then arm, then right leg of my dwarf Hammerlord with full iron armour, thank god for slayers or i would be toast.

Have to say LOTS of FUN

[Mech#4]

I think I'm a few versions behind in my thinking but...

How can I tell/choose what race I start out with? Do I have to add the [CIV_CONTROLLABLE] tag in the raws, or can I choose from the embark screen?

I see one panel called Civilization in the embark screen, but I can't tell which civilisation is which.

[Stronghammer]

you have to go through the different civ names and then swap to the allies and enemies page, the top race will be your race
