    Ask about anything related to Dwarf Fortress - including the game, utilities, bugs, problems you're having, mods, etc. You will get fast and friendly responses in this thread.

    Read the sidebar before posting! It has information on a range of game packages for new players, and links to all the best tutorials and quick-start guides. If you have read it and that hasn't helped, mention that!

    You should also take five minutes to search the wiki - if tutorials or the quickstart guide can't help, it usually has the information you're after. You can find the previous questions thread here.

    If you can answer questions, please sort by new and lend a hand - linking to a helpful resource (eg wiki page) is fine.

    The great Cat-Crundle War of 157

    Posted: 05 Jul 2021 07:24 AM PDT

    For some reason in the fort of Tradedspirit as the dwarves fight wars against three goblin civilizations and a dwarven civilization

    The local cats seem to be engaged in their own war

    They breed without restraint and filter into the local cavern layers which are filled mostly with crundles

    they fight across the map. Cats ambushing crundles and crundles jumping out of the mushroom trees onto cats

    Every few weeks dwarven peasants pull the tiny corpses out of the caves and throw them into the magma

    and they're all scratching their heads and asking "Why?"

    We sought an answer to this question and our captain of the guard interrogated one of the local cats who was nicknamed "Gildedcrown" by the dwarves for his crundle kills. Sadly the interview revealed now new pertinent information as the cat merely meowed in response or adorably rubbed its leg on the captain of the guard

    Next a crundle was involved but it merely shrieked and tried to steal a bracelet off the table before the captain killed it and threw it into the magma

    Scholars will debate for many years the reason for this "shadow war" happening amidst these greater surface wars. Perhaps the true masterminds of the war between us "sapients" are these tiny overlords fighting below?

    Now that's a FUN title

    Now that's a FUN title

    I have just received the visit of that guy, who proceeded to "instill fear" in a wandering troglodyte by waving at it, before leaving. Sadly I could not recruit him.
    I have never seen such a thing before. Who is that epic hero?

    Well, that's one way to train your armor skill I guess

    My fortress seems to have a knack for attracting scholarly necromancers, have they found something better than the secrets of life and death in my libraries? Shall I ask them for the secrets of life and death?

    My dwarves keep dying

    Posted: 05 Jul 2021 07:30 AM PDT

    So I started playing this game yesterday, and all three fortresses of mine end with my dwarves just dropping dead. My guys start digging into the mountain and then they start dying one by one, is this because I neglected to feed them or something? I do have a kitchen set up and the stockpile has food there. I'm so lost

    Testing the waters with some Dwarf Fortress writing.

    Posted: 04 Jul 2021 06:42 PM PDT

    I asked on here three weeks ago about dwarf fortress stories, and I think just watching Kruggsmash is my favorite. I have been playing a ton of DF in the last month, experimenting, trouble shooting, and failing many many times. This latest time I died to a cascade of Were-Giraffe bites. I have decided to commemorate this amazing loss with my own retelling of the events from the perspective of a visitor who was staying in our tavern.

    If you enjoy this, then perhaps I need to start writing more about Dwarf Fortress.

    It is possible to play as a historical figure in Adventure mode

    Posted: 05 Jul 2021 10:06 AM PDT

    Did you know that it is possible to play as a historical figure in adventure mode by using the Df Hack unretire-anyone command at the character race selection screen and selecting Specific Person as race.

    Can't dig through shale

    Posted: 05 Jul 2021 05:58 AM PDT

    I was playing orcs in the desert biome using the masterwork mod. Already dug through a few z layers of sand but can't get through shale. Does anyone else have this problem?
