#1: Put the Alarm Siren in the Military Garrison, it fits and is one buildings less.

#1: Keep the Alarm Siren seperate, I want to have it near my other levers.

#2: I have traded with Gnomes, build Artificer and Weather Control Station.

#2: I have NOT traded with Gnomes, did not have the chance to build their buildings.

I have a few questions for the experts:

1.The elves brought me a warpstone landmine in a cage,(I guess it qualifies as an exotic creature  ) and I was wondering how to operate it.

2.I got an 'Apostle of Armok'.  Is there a special use for this aside from the preacher noble?

Thanks for all the hard work you put into the mod, great job.

The colosseum is actually one of my favorite features, as incredibly dangerous as it is. I enjoy taking on a bronze colossus for the platinum soul...I once had 6 spawn at once. The unknown factor is at times, hilarious to me.

You know what has me stumped ? How can there be a russion wiki, a japanese wiki, and what I assume to be  more or less OK translations of the mod, but A: I dont know about it (which means no one has asked) and B: Why did the english wiki not work? 

Ryan ashes did write me about the russion one, asking for help after he was 50% done. But thats about it. ^^

First impact with this discovery could be negative, I can understand you, but think about how much passion and interest DF and MW DF are spreading it's a good thing.
I'll never do an italian translation anyway, the main game it's english and it could only be a problem + extra work.

Instead, let's talk again about the guide / walktrought / video / tutorials.
I saw you got passionate about making a succession game, this is really great, but try to build down things in a "explanatory way", at least it will be both funny and helpful.
With this, I mean that you shouldn't just "barricate in a evil enviroment or embark on a volcano and making a long corridor with traps" thing, but try to build and explain the behaviour of all your extra buildings, or (and this is more important) try to describe wich new possibilities in the early game your mod brings.

Well a good 75% of your improvements are really self-explanatory, but I have many doubts about the great world of magic (arcane and divine) you added to the game.
Also rushing trough only one "military industry" could be a good way to play, with your mod. Like spending all resources in making golems, or magic, or glass/stone weaponry early in the game.

Also, in the end I can't really judge my experience with your mod yet, I just did 1 fortress, but I'm not getting sieged or attacked by the tremendous creatures you created yet, except for the bifrost giants, for wich my new forge is waiting.
One bad thing it happened to me, due to my lack of experience, I stopped my Depot to work because of traps (didn't know that), and in the 2 years passed without caravans (other than having huge FPS problems for my stockpiles full of unusable goods), I lost my civilization. (asked for help here)
Maybe your terrible creatures / siegers attacked more them than me ? I'm getting only sieges by stupid orcs and goblins, yes, well armed, but now I have 40 soldiers with steel and they're not a match anymore.

That's my only problem up to now: the game seems too easy, compared to what I did expect.
But 1 fortress is not enough to judge, also, I'm plaiyng Gaia. Next time I'll play something very hard.

I think I can help you

I discovered yesterday how to use that things, you have to build the last workshop named "spawn location",
where you want the turret or anything (also scarecrows etc) then build it.

A) But I did inform you not long ago <.<.
B) Because not everyone knows english? I guess it's valid answer.
BTW russiAn please, two times the same mistype is bad for eyes.

Nope. Spawnpoint workshop is for creatures you produce in your fortress. I mean sowing seeds, installing turret etc. In case bought "creatures" You just have to get them out of the cage (unfortunately i know only the way of building cage, assigning creature and then unassigning it to dorf take the creature out) then you just have to pasture turret/landmine/dolem or whatever where you need

[smakemupagus]

You can just assign it to pasture while it's still in the cage, a worker will come take it out and lead to pasture.

[Panopticon]

Smake is correct landmines purchased as pets from traders work exactly like animals, pasture them where you want them. If you make a landmine, which tbh I don't recall if that is a feature in this version or not, then you have to use the spawn point building to place it, and you will not be able to move it after it is place.

[Riverfire]

My squad of steel clad newbies juat got chewed by a lasse.

"What on earth is a lasse?" **Checks raws**

A seal? A goddamn seal? **inarticulate sputtering**

[smakemupagus]

Well, a prone-to-rage seal shaped monster 5 times the size of a dwarf

[LordBaal]

This give the phrase "fur is murder" another whole perspective.

I like to play with bigger regions, so does it really matter if I don't use a pre-genned world? Am I going to miss out on anything if I generat a world?

My method is tweaking the pre-genned worlds. Like adding volcanism to garden of gaia, or increasing savagery for the beginner's world, that kind of thing. This works best for me, and I can recommend the same. The diversity of the pre-genned worlds covers most scenarios, and they need little modification to fit anyone's needs.

Sounds great, I'll do it next time

A quick question: Roughly when will the linux and mac versions of masterwork V.2g come out?

I will probably have time to do the Linux version this weekend, I need to build and test my build of the new Therapist first.
I could update the mac version when I do that, all that is needed is a swap out of the raws, manuals, and settings.exe.

[Meph]

You dont want to wait for another update? I might be distracted by the graphics stuff, but I have a nice todo list for the mod already.
