We have a mayor! We're building bedrooms! We'll even have a tavern pretty soon! Praise Armok!
We do need more food though. Lack of trading partners means that we don't have the usual influx of livestock and other caged animals so we'll have to figure something out. There are geese out in the wild so we might have to catch a few of them and start breeding them.
Yesterday I landed on a volcano in my #DwarfFortress and, TBH, it kinda feels like cheating. 😅
My magma forge room is still getting set up, but it is operational! I finally also have water wells and a hospital. But I do need bedrooms. And a tavern. And some temples. And and and...
So yeah let's get moving in "The Future Dawn-Land"!
I'm going to switch back to #DwarfFortress today since I'm doing laundry and that game is pretty forgiving to a busy schedule. I'll be streaming of course.
This will be my last embark before Adventure Mode is released. I've been watching some videos by @BlindiRL on advanced world generation so I've been tweaking mine a bit. I already knew about some of the parameters but was afraid to touch the others so it was helpful to have those demystified.
I love Gelders in #DwarfFortress because dwarves are named for their highest skill
So if a dwarf is addressed as a Gelder, that doesn't JUST mean he chops balls off animals. It means chopping balls off animals is his ART. It's his most finely honed craft. It is what he is known for.
Today on Dwarf Fortress: The World of Wonder, we await the triumphant return of our soldiers after demanding tribute from a nearby human settlement. Will we gain a new trading partner? We'll soon find out!
We completed the plug between cave layers and will soon make preparations to take over the first cave layer (FINALLY). It's risky but the reward will be worth it!
Today on Dwarf Fortress: The World of Wonder, we need to finish up plugging that opening between the top two cave layers before that wiggly worm beast gets wise to our presence.
I want to train our gem setting dwarves to get good, and I've set up a workflow involving clay statues and glass gems. That way I don't use up precious resources and save the good stuff for when they are proficient at it.
