If seamus can play the piano, your miner can mine with no feet.

download the lazy newb pack

http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=59026.0

Extract it or whatever, then run the Lazy Newb Pack.exe

There's a tutorial link on the main page, too. Use a tileset, otherwise you are going to be overwhelmed by ascii...unless you learned the Ascii, but I prefer a tileset, makes it easier on the eyes.

LOTS OF FUN!

so there appeared one goblin. i sent my whole squad out to kill him, then there was an "it's an ambush", and suddenly there were three goblins. They simply slaughtered 6 of my squad and still didn't die i think (but disappeared soon after). And after that, everything went downhill. As i'm a complete newby i don't know what exactly went wrong, i guess a shortage in alcohol (for whatever reason, the "brew drink" tasks always disappeared) or food or whatever, but basically my whole population went insane and almost all are dead now. I have stockpiles full of bodies outside of my entrance, i can't construct coffins fast enough to keep up with my mortality rate x.X FUN!

alright, they don't even need to be insane. i just caught my farmer destroying a farm plot, and had just thrown a tantrum but he has not gone insane yet.

When dwarves throw tantrums, they have a habit of "tearing down" buildings.

I had a Mason throw a tantrum and he tore down his workshop in his rage.

Does anybody have a good way to raise my road value so I can become the capital?

I don't have access to any fancy minerals, is there a way I can utilize gems or something.

I'm lucky if I don't kill myself before I get a Mayor, I didn't even know you could become the capital.

So what does everyone like to start our with skill wise with their first 7 dwarves? I have a really hard time deciding and I cant stand not having a decent broker/bookkeeper/manager form the start so I usually sacrifice 1 dwarf to fill those 3 roles.

Hit n and then c and it will show up.

Its when the nobles come.


edit: Anybody know a easy way to mass claim items? I have bolts and troll loot strewn about that I want my dwarfs to pick up.

Minerx2, Mason/Archi, Carpenter, Crafter/broker, farmer, and then the other two are fishers, brewers, militia, hunters, whatever I feel like taking along at the time.

I usually take a Craftdwarf and give him broker/book keeper skills in place of his crafting points because he skills up in crafting really quickly anyways.

z --> stocks

Hopefully you have a book keeper.

find the "ammo" section, and then go and unforbid all over it.

same for troll loot, however if you're putting it into refuse, you'll need to enable "gather refuse from outside via o --> r --> o
