So – a new
game demands a new world – essentially the area that this masterpiece shall be
woven and the beginning of any new Dwarf Fortress fortress is the creation of
the entire world!
And so it
shall be done.
For the
sight of this new Dwarven Empire I used the following:
Which should
give me a world roughly half a millennia old, but with only a few different
civilisations in it. A low number of sites – which hopefully means all the good
ones aren’t taken – lots of beasts just to add a bit of interest to it, medium
natural savagery (which means the beasts will probably will have had some FUN) to
the world and minerals EVERYWHERE, making it easier to get metals and the like.
This gives
me the below world. Look at it in all its glory! The mountains! The deserts!
The frozen north!

people named in the history for Feb here is also locatable, for example looking
up Zulban who killed off the Collossus:

158.
And so on
and so forth. If nothing else, it’s a wonderful source of inspiration and
history for fantasy worlds.
Anywho! On
with finding somewhere to strike the earth!
