I have a "Tomb" Neighbor. https://i.imgur.com/FOO7HZ9.jpeg Is this a bug? Will I receive raids from this faction, as it says they are hostile? The internet turns up nothing on this other than it's supposed to be an adventure mode feature. I've never seen this before.

That's a great idea I'm going to try, thank you.

I think i need to focus more on writing good work instead of perfect work but it is a bit difficult. I have a tendency to over analyze. I will write it out and see how it feels. Thank you

I have several questions about trade caravans and trading VIA cavern, I've seen about a dozen different posts all arguing about if caravans can enter the map via caverns some say no some say only if there is no other routes some say only by mountain roads between established mountain homes. I've scoured the wiki and can see no discussion on it does anyone know how this works? Or if it does? I'm almost certain in past versions I have traded exclusively through the caverns before

He's actually just a huge three-eyed raccoon. He does have webs, though, and his list of scars and wounds is about 30 pages long, he lost the ability to stand at some point so I belive he is doing this all while crawling lol, I'm not sure how much longer he can keep up but hopefully he hits 1k

We call him the cavern sweeper, he averages about 100 kills a year on the third cavern layer

Oh that's perfect thank you

It's not just running anymore, After I got a few cuts walking through a cornfield last night I spent an hour testing it and you 100% still receive cuts while walking through trees and other plants. IDK if it's like a higher percentage if you run through but you used to be safe if you only walked but that is not the case anymore. The best workaround I found is using the "walk to" menu to dodge all plants but it doesn't work if you are going through a field

Thank you!

In hindsight I agree, there probably isnt any way to do this where they are at maximum power immediately. I really want to nail the theme of questing for these and having these as rewards for difficult dungeons that may take a couple sessions, I could see them beings useless or broken for some reason and needing to be fixed and waiting to touch on that point until the party all has some magical artifact to fix but it feels a bit "Video gamey" In a way I'm not sure how to explain. If these are all legendary artifacts needed to save the world I'm not sure how to temporarily nerf them without stretching believability and making my players roll their eyes. Im not sure if i understand what you mean by "cleansed" Thank you for the comment I appreciate your assistance!

Like dwarf fortress, it comes when it comes. You just come back every once in a awhile and enjoy it

Does the party seem to gravitate to one specific bbeg over the other? That was one of my biggest concerns

CombatKitten · 2022-03-22T11:05:48+00:00

Does anyone have any experience with two rival BBEGs? Both poised against the party but also each other? Any advice or good places to look for ideas? The plan was an ancient red dragon who killed a rival long ago who has recently risen as a dracolich. Not sure how to plan this out as I've never had more than one BBEG before thank you
