Is there any chance you could re-upload the modded version of DF on a site that wasn't seized by the FBI? Edit: Reverence and Solid Poopsnake, we're on Team 3. Seeing as we're an antlady, a troll, and a kobold, I vote we name our team the Cave Pals (for lack of a better idea). edit: found it atomicthumbs fucked around with this message at 19:28 on Aug 8, 2014 |

Scrree posted:Yeah, I felt stressed for points making my Serpentman and looking at how less points the bigger dudes get I see why so many of them walk into the arena basically naked except for their weapon. Happy with the name? If you want to discuss strategy, I'm reachable by message, email, skype, irc or most anything you'd prefer.

Haystack posted:Silverminnow, Ablative. My fellow team 16-ers. We need to talk. Specifically, we need to talk about what we're gonna name our team, because that is a thing that we can do. I suggest Team Sexting, because I am mentally twelve. I'm entirely ambivalent toward the name. Coordination is probably a good idea, shoot me one ablativesa@gmail.com

Team 9, neurion and Duckaerobics, please email me at cth501@hotmail.com. I've got test results that I'd like for you guys to see, and we should probably coordinate in general. By the way, excellent new build, Duckaerobics.

My one bit of tactical advice for Meat and Two Veg is that maybe Onan should consider a blunt weapon so we have damage-type diversity (slash-bash-stab)

 I have re-uploaded the modified version of the arena It was discovered that I hadn't correctly removed damselflies from the arena the first time, so character macros were choking when trying to create elf characters in the arena. This has been fixed now. http://arenachallenge.com/dwarffort/df_40_06_arena.zip

And now, another question. For big, blunt objects, does hardness matter, or just weight? Silver seems better than iron for a mace, or am I misunderstanding?

goatface posted:Someone better put together a team of buffmen who survive through a combination of skill and oiled muscles. Well, there's one experiment result I'm willing to share with everyone. It looks like the rules of this tournament provide a massive nerf to big guys. Big guys rely on knocking down smaller opponents and stomping them into the curb while they're defenseless. With 3 people on each side, unless the big guys can kill the guy on the ground really fast, there will always be someone capable of striking back with something choppy/stabby/smashy. However, wrestling can be surprisingly useful against guys who dodge well, if there's at least one other teammate attacking the same enemy. So, a buffman might work.

Does everyone think a Monday start will give you enough time to play around with different builds, before we get underway? I figure three days should be enough.

Initially I thought this would be at the least an interesting thing to do while I wait for Toady to finish with all the bugfixes this cycle. However, after hearing about how nasty One-Eyed Willie can be to his opponents, I'm itching to see how our team matches up against everyone else Can't wait for Monday now!
