Dwarf Fortress - Chaosfortunes: Year 4 (anyone can still join)
Matt_S:
Maybe evil biomes are too much fun for us?
I'd rather we didn't savescum, but reclaiming a first year fortress doesn't really seem legit either. I think a fresh start would be a better idea (same embark or different one).
RSO:
I'll re-embark on the same site.
The evil biome is dangerous, but not insurmountable. Now that I know what it does and can plan for it, it won't be a problem (at least for the first year, he-he-he). We'll need to have a vegetarian fort, and once we get magma, magma all animals.
It seems appropriately Doomish. Stuff stays dead for about 30 seconds, then stands back up. It's like Dwarf Fortress on N!

I concur. I'd rather avoid savescumming, if you don't mind starting over.
BTW, nice writeup! Crawling reanimated skin is really creepy. I think I'll start my own evil biome fort in the meantime so see this stuff in action.
RSO:
It wasn't just the skin. The hair reanimated separately and attacked the fort as well, but that was less of an issue.
The truly horrifying part is that after the skin got reduced to a water buffalo skin (without a head) and a water buffalo head skin, the two started moving independently. There was no stopping it.

That's awesome. I just have to embark on a glacier and pretend that there were Things buried there.
