I expect crashing. And fire. And blood. And screaming.

Then it would be a good thing.

This is a masterfully derailed thread. It depicts Necro in magma-silk thread. This relates to the great derailing of the Divorce Thread in 2011. Necro is holding up a pig-tail fiber sock. Necro is swimming. Necro is striking a defiant pose.

The dragons you'll get will be really huge, or dead due to a constant duels with champions, or civs will be destroyed by monsters. But you'll know that only in next month (if the world is pocket of course)

I once flung a migrant off a bridge. He collided with the brook cliff and died.
A year later, my legendary engraver engraved him colliding with an obstacle and dying.

Won't the dragons reach their size limit after a certain point?

Also; my money is on everyone starving if you play Adventure mode. Most of the towns will probably be devoid of life. The civilisations should still exist however and it shouldn't impact Fort mode. One civ might have dominated by this point though I spose. Loadsa variables.

There will be no-one in the world. Every civ will be wiped out, and forgotten beast will rule the (under)world.

You can edit it in the world param txt file so that it can be such a large amount.

Hey, this picqued my curiosity and I want to give an impossibly long worldgen a go, see how far it gets.
But could you tell me where I can find this world param file? The only text file concerning world gen I have found is world_gen.

That's exactly it.
Get the worldgen you want(like, LARGE REGION for example) and then edit END_YEAR to whatever you want. You can edit a lot of the other values like this and the game will gen accordingly, even if the numbers exceed what the game has as limits.

I wonder if you can edit the DIM values... Nope. 257x257 is the maximum.
Well that is apparently an exception to the rule.
