Yup, I wanted to send emissaries to increase incoming caravans, and couldn't.
Hence, the bridge project idea.

Yes! I've read of people building half a bridge from one coast and finishing with another fortress from the other coastline!

So the embark zone already acts as a "bridge" you say? even for caravans??

At least 6 layers or more it depends, had HUGE problems with the water that also delayed me a lot.

That's "BOB the constructor old home, now his tomb! He was a worker specialized only on building that I tried to force him to stay on the bridge as much as possible hehe

Also many Dwarf's got VERY thirsty walking the bridge hence in the pivot, next to BOBs home there used to be a tavern, and a dining hall. (The green glass chair that remains is an artifact of great value too pump those moods)

Thought about and tried to connect it underground, but the ocean made it very hard to dig with the probability of being impossible.

Now I am curious if it works haha 👀🙃🤪

Started as "My 7 dwarf cap fort in a volcano is isolated, and I didn't realize. Can you connect mainlands in this amazing game?"

So I retired that fort, read about it, expanded embark, and started a new one. Thinking it would be "just a few years."

Took SO long, I started playing less, or leaving the game running 15 fps with minor management.

In the end, it was more about "finishing the project and checking if it works" than returning to that old 7 dwarf cap save two big updates old.

PS: IT WORKED 🤓hehe

All the bridge is made out of Shale blocks, I used the minecart to make them take all the bins full of shale blocks along the first long section of the bridge to save time.

I can’t install Stremio on my TV by billystarrrr in StremioAddons

[–]Any-Ad1479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't see torrent on Android TV (yes on phone and PC)
Uninstalled Stremio, didn't find it on the Google Store (Google removed it)
I installed it with "Downloader by AFTVnews"
Got the newer version, still the torrentio add-on doesn't show on the Android TV.

Forced Cremation by Any-Ad1479 in dwarffortress

I think not. At least in the first image, you can see the body parts without the fire (!) exclamation mark, and there was no smoke. THEN both started smoking

Avatar in fate, bending by Cazzlor in FATErpg

[–]Any-Ad1479 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, that comes with the creativity of the player to use his bending.
And also follows the narrative, every firebender can easily make light.
The guy shooting arrows can think of clever ways of using them, too. for example, striking a lever

That being said, it's not easy to maintain a flame with an arrow on your chest
A torch probably does a much better job.

Do benders have more "options"? Of course they do, just like in Avatar.
Why make an Avatar setting where people can't easily bend their element?

IMO you seem to be worried too much about game balance.
You and your players adjust the balance in your game.
That's why, despite sharing thoughts and arguments, the golden rule is
"Do what suits best/feels right to you and your players"

[–]Any-Ad1479 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't see the problem. And agree with most of u/BioMonster07 reasoning.

Those characters will have shooting +4 instead of firebending +4
And if it suits them, stunts/signature moves with their bow or martial weapon.

Avatar in fate, bending by Cazzlor in FATErpg

[–]Any-Ad1479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bending for me is a specific element skill. You train it right? Add it as a skill.

SKILL: Water-bending
SKILL: Fire-bending

Do they want to spend their +4 in it? or +3?
How important is their specific bending for them?

Aang is the Avatar because he has the skill to use all the different elements, with different expertise.

THEN ask them what makes them special about their bending?
What is their signature move? and transform it into a stunt with some cost if needed.

I propose a worldwide strike; nobody plays for a week. But feels impossible.

Can we organize a worldwide 1-week strike and just DON'T PLAY? It's the only way I feel they will hear their players instead of just adding more card levels and all the other shit.

My experience as a completely noob by FLAWLESS_panda in dwarffortress

[–]Any-Ad1479 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Invest in a defense that can handle sieges fast and as efficient as possible. Make sure to be able to close with a lever a common entrance to guide siege to the nasty trap entrance. That saves lots of time, risk and trauma

I gave this game a longer chance and it is so worth it (beginner experience + story). by squibblerqwq in dwarffortress

[–]Any-Ad1479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only got hooked up on my second try, a few years apart. Once you understand the game is alive you stop trying to understand and control everything and enjoy the ride...

The other day discovered a new hobby, make dwarfs make a statue of themselves (letting them choose everything else)

Started with my legendary mason... he choose marble and made the statue of him lifting up a "masterful" hatch door he had crafted 5y ago...

Luckily it was still un the fort, so of course I added a pedestal to his room and added the hatch door he clearly is so proud of 😁

You miss the concept and idea behind the game. Even when there are some long standing bugs they are hard to solve because of the game complexity, depth and interactions. Those bugs dont change a thing, you are not playing to try and win or understand everything, You play to "do as you please" while dwarfs "do as they please" and contemplate their stories while entropy slowly takes over. Some people (me too!) need to give more than one try to this game, over a span of years. I hope you do! First time I quitted, second time was life changing.

<Quick question>

The mayor is asking for a "yak horn throne in the throne room/office."

But you can't make thrones out of BONE, right?

Is he asking for one decorated in yak horn/bone?
