As Cyrus has already asked for help setting up a wiki, I imagine the answer to my question will be 'no'. However, does anyone happen to know of a resource (could just be forum posts, for example) regarding the agent/espionage element of the game.

This aspect seems so beautifully complex and interesting, and yet the complexity--coupled with a lack of any real tutorial and some ambiguity--makes it extremely difficult to get into.

Any help will be deeply appreciated!

unfortunately, there has never in the history been a Agent (spies pretty much) tutorial. they are the most dangerous element in the game and as such no one really likes to give up secrets on how they work. but, we want to make a wiki to help em out, so we miswell include that.

The game is pretty addicting, and has lots of depth. But it can be overwhelming at first.

I'm really liking it so far.

I open the updater, press accept, and it begins downloading for a second and then quits cold. What is the suggested course of action.

Was that the first time? You run it again. If it does it again, you run it again. After the second or third time or so it should actually be done updating itself and such, and stay open.

It worked, thank you :).

I joined this game about two weeks back, and I love it. I played for a few months back in 2009 - 2010, but lost interest due to the lack of wars. Doesn't seem to be an issue this time around. Its free this time, too, so that's also great.

Download the game. Give it a shot. My logic is that if you can figure out DF enough to play it, you won't have too much trouble with this.

Good luck.

This is my favorite part of Bay 12!
Zack, my boy, practicality - or the lack of it - has never stopped a Dwarf Fortress player before. You want to find a way to play this game without your eyes? Someone here with the know-how will be able to help you and we'll be damned if we let a little thing like the practicality of a solution get in our way.

It looks pretty neat,I'm gonna download it and try it out tomorrow.

edit: After restarting the tutorial 4 times,I finally managed to finish it. After screwing around a bit in Aurelium,I decided to go live...and it just gave me a new colony in Aurelium again. Every time I self destruct it just moves me to a new planet in the tutorial system,what gives?

You must be selecting the wrong options when you self destruct. Make sure to select all the options that say "yes i'm crazy and i don't care what happens to me".

I'm trying to get into this... Downloaded the thin installer, it downloads e'erything, then kaputz, it dies, and spits an error in me face...
I noticed them being very picky about naming the folder EXACTLY "Beyond Protocol", but I'm trying to figure out if that is the cause... (I always spell "Protocol" as "protocool"...)

Apparently I needed .net 3.5, welp, the more I know!

Looks like the game I've always wanted, but I have not the time to get into it.
