Dwarf Fortress - Despite the multiple let's sperg threads, we never had a general

It absolutely did and took a lot of the fun out of it for me. Which is a shame because the z-levels should add a ton to the game.
Z-levels just confuse me, I genuinely can't figure out how they work so I just never use them and build over any holes that appear. Pls be patient my brain is very smooth.
 
Use the wiki. Trust me, it's your best friend.

Or

"hey does this variant of poison kill dwarves quickly, slowly or make them permanently miserable"

Or

"What the fuck is a (obscure animal) and is it dangerous"

Is there any interest in a kiwi community succession fort? I've never run one before but it can't be that hard. Post here if you're interested, if we can get, say, 5 people on board we'll do it.

I am tempted to make another Lets Sperg succession fort, if you fancy it just react to my post and if it gets enough votes I could roll out a thread for voting and gen a world

It be raining succession forts
 
that one is dead as far as I can tell, unless there's a thread I'm missing.
Yer been tempted to make a new one for the new update. much more fun now dwarfs don't spiral into Detroit because they were in the rain for too long. I'm playing a fort now and having fun.


An idea I had for a fort was to establish a Kiwi Farm (the bird, not the fruit). I don't know how to force them onto a map, I keep embarking on areas they should spawn but never get them, If I find them I may make a Succession fort with the goal of keeping a thriving kiwi farm!

Some minor RAW modification is definitely justified, switching them from [PET_EXOTIC] to [PET] and adding [COMMON_DOMESTIC] should allow them to be bought with points during embark.

Tried DF, didn't like.

Tried Rimworld, it's alright.

Rimworld is just gateway DF.
It really is, I started playing DF again because I was playing Rimworld and got triggered that some statues my colonists made we're just babbys first proc-gen.

Rim World statue: “This shows an image of Jet, Jet is sleeping whiles 17 Dentists watch to the left, the image is of a serious tone. “

DF statue: This statue is by Uriest Goldfortunes in the dwarves fort of Fire Helmets, on the image is the Dwarf Olin Wavetreaties and the Forgotten beast Azkile Karkegstok The Murderous Bloodskies in Marble. Olin is striking down the beast with his Masterwork Steel Spear “Strong Straight”. The dwarf is striking a heroic pose. The beast is dying. This artwork related to the deafeat of the forgotten beast Murderos Bloodskies on the 2nd of Sandstone in the year 235. The object is studded with Green Praise and is adorned with rings of Pink rose gold.

To be fair the statues in Rimworld serve a gameplay purpose and the description is just flavor text that's a nice little unnecessary touch.

Dorf Steam release when?
