  • Someone play a final turn and make sure the fortress dies in a blaze of glory.
    I nominate Rym.

    Seconded.

  • New version just got released.
  • Anyone want to try this again?

    I have been meaning to play Everybody Dies: the Fortress again, so I could be interested.

  • I wish I had time to learn this game, it looks right up my alley.

    Seriously? The wiki is just as good and will be constantly updated. Apart from the novelty factor, I see no reason to waste money on it.

    There's less comics on the wiki. The forums however.

  • The book does have interesting comics. I would be interested in joining in on a game.
  • So is this thing happening? I wouldn't mind joining- haven't played since around the update that added ghosts and vampires.
  • Yeah, what's happening with this? I'm itching to get started.
  • I'm still waiting for the book to show up. Then CTCon. Nobody is stopping you from starting it without me. This looks like a classic situation of everyone is waiting for someone else to get the ball rolling. One of you has to be the ball roller. Just start dwarfing if you want to.

    Andrew was the one to suggest another succession game, so the question was for him.

    The point stands that anyone can start it.

  • Sorry, I was away on vacation since I posted this. I'll gen world tonight and stuff like that.

    For those playing, be sure to grab the latest (v34.11) DF. That means you: Andrew, Apsup, Jack124, Apreche, thaneofcawdor, Boe Joomer and Grunkie7.

    Don't forget, dwarves are like Apreche when it comes to fat folks blocking their way, they get grumpy and kill your computer.

    Also maybe start discussing things like play order, load outs, location, etc maybe? If not I could dump you lot in a 'special' location.

  • I'd go for a classic mountainside embark, perhaps in an evil biome if we think we could handle the added 'fun'.

    Not too picky about the embark, long as we've got picks and axe(s). I usually spring for a small set of armor/training for a one man vanguard in case shit hits the fan early on.

  • I present to you, Ceretelina "The Infinite Land"!

    So far the list is:
    Andrew
    Apsup
    Jack124
    thaneofcawdor
    Apreche(?)
    Boe Joomer
    Grunkie7

    Anyone have strong opinions on the type of expedition zone and starting build?
  • Put me at the bottom of the list. That will give me maximum preparation time and also increase the chances of losing occurring before my turn.

    If you haven't already started, I'd say just go ahead and pick an interesting spot.
  • Find a spot where shit rains from the sky.
  • Find plenty of steel making material, and make sure one dwarf can smith.
  • I'm after Grunkie.
  • I didn't know much about the game back in v2011 but I'd like to make a doomsday weapon.
  • I'm out of town again so wait until next week for updates.
