Haunted Biome
« on: October 05, 2011, 07:38:44 pm »

So I just embarked on a place hoping to get favorable land with skeletal animals however I've found zombie geese and one skeletal gander so far.  I was under the impression that you could only find one or the other.  So I'm wondering, will I get more skeletal animals?

Yeah, definitely. http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/DF2010:Marsh#Temperate_marshes Capture the skeletal crocodiles and use them in your water trap for goblin sieges.

Yeah, definitely. What kind of biome is it?
I picked an area that was about 3/4 terrifying and 1/4 haunted.
I'm not sure of the savagery though.

Terrifying is even better. You'll get savage animal spawns, though I don't know if slugmen and snailmen come in undead forms.

Oh they should, at least according to a certain DF comic.   :P

I'll look for slugmen and snailmen soon after I get my dwarves inside quickly.

I have skeletal carp, zombie carp, and skeletal sturgeon...  I'm basically assured of this being fun.

Sturgeon are big and love to bite limbs off. Use them in your water trap!

I'll try if I find a way to survive embark.  I'm being very careful but there's around 6 skeletal capybra right near the embark.

I may already be dead.  A skeletal buzzard has already killed someone.

Bring trained axedwarves for the re-embark.

The skeletal buzzards ran off although I think they took all my plump helmet seeds...
