Dwarf Fortress Megathread! - Necro'd enough to count as a vampire

[aludane]

I play Dwarf Fortress with the mod called My Little Fortress. I'm mastering the skill of farming with watering areas by designating a fill point therefore creating mud which is needed.

Plump helmets all the way man.

Caravans show up, if you have a trade depot they move to it (if they can) then unpack their stuff. While they're unpacking (and after it, and before it) you can carry goods over to trade. Then you can call the broker (view the buildings {q} menu to do both of those) and you can trade.

I hope they add music to adventure mode soon. I can't wait to play instruments. Then I can truly have a bard.

If I remember correctly, in DnD you can kill people by playing music.

That would be awesome.

Also, someone made a partially functional Dead Space mod. I don't think he's added The Tormentor yet, though. That boss was awesome. :c

I think I'm around 300 kills with my Spearwoman now. I feel so accomplished.

If it's the elves' caravan just seize everything and kick the stuff out of them.
Speaking of which, how do you attack the elves in a caravan? Use the squad menu to issue a kill command on the elves?

Yeah. Just don't try it on a dwarven caravan.
