After taking a turn in the secession game I decided to start up my own fort. Two and a half years in, I have seen a weremoose attack (two dead, infected militia commander is trapped in a walled-off section of the fort), and just now an Etten (a giant two-headed humanoid creature). The Etten died without too much disaster, but it has dropped a tablet which turns anyone who reads it into a necromancer.
The only thing Rimworld does that I want DF to add is to generate an interactable instance/map for missions outside the fort
that would be legit cool. or if DF had the same level of radically game altering mods.
playing rimworld right now but im in space slowly building up a former exploration vessel into a warship using cobbled hulks of pirate ships i've defeated in combat. mods be crazy. also how cool would it be to have a sailing ship in DF
