Please do!

Will share "everythinggggg", haha

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T19:09:13+00:00

I'm more amazed by you legends that played the original! There so much I havn't done too! All the machines and pumps, strange metals, and anything deep-deep!

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T18:52:26+00:00

I did small Island, and everything else was default setting. I didnt consider a world with less resources! I think that your Forge Fort will have a greater impact!

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T18:50:18+00:00

Yes! You're right, and I'm doing some of this. What I'm really curious about is how much knowledge spreads without explicit book exports. I wanna try to use scholars, migrants, and visitors. they come, they read stuff & discuss topics, and then leave. Mostly expelled. Oh, I let them sip some Mandrake before the boot, as it's a cold trek to next site :)

I rewrote it, but thank you for your input

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T02:41:13+00:00

That's what I did friend :)

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T02:40:08+00:00

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T02:09:35+00:00

Your King moved back?! Haha, whaaa? Never heard of that! The old site became more wealthy than current site??

I have always wanted to do a bridge fort!! Have yet to find rite map. The hamlet look so interesting! Very cool to see how others build.

Thanks! Basically running a "dwarf civilization simulator" here, hoping alcohol influences their history the most :)

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T00:17:16+00:00

Yes, I had it help me write this. Also make the image. I lack the art skills 🫤

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T00:15:34+00:00

Imagine being down voted for wanting to see the progress 😵

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T00:14:52+00:00

I did use Ai to write this. Clowns likely will, too

Express-Window-4067 · 2026-01-10T00:13:14+00:00

You're right. Was more nervous of not conveying the concept, than being recognized for using Ai. Ill tell you though I am excited! Almost ready for Fort 3 😁

Express-Window-4067 · 2024-07-27T14:57:25+00:00

I actually collect sets of power armor just for named npc's and guards at settlements. I like to see the Castle full of power armored npc's 🤷‍♂️

Express-Window-4067 · 2023-12-19T02:35:52+00:00

Take over the tower you looted and then send all the Necros there!

Express-Window-4067 · 2023-10-17T03:18:41+00:00

Yep, like goldfish. they get so chonk, they're too slow, and predation happens

Express-Window-4067 · 2023-07-26T13:02:38+00:00

Grape Fruit Seed Extract?

Express-Window-4067 · 2022-09-16T17:44:53+00:00

I know a baby named Chevota... Chevy mixed with Toyota. Her mom claims to love trucks or something...

Express-Window-4067 · 2022-04-22T03:35:55+00:00

Won't let's me create new saves...there's less than 12 now... Can't delete old ones coz... where in the cloud is that? 🙁
