Dwarf Fortress creator toys with the idea of an Elf Fortress

Elves in dwarf fortress will start a 100 year war because you tried to sell them a wooden bowl. Of course I want to play as them

Dude. One time I accidentally tried to sell them a shellcraft crown and they got so pissed that they sent in the bear cavalry.

Biggest hypocrites in the game. I’d rather treat with the cave fish men or the roach men than those tree lovers

They can get pissed just because you cut down a single almond tree to make beds. I need to see if modding the steam version is the same as legacy so I can have rock beds, as dwarves should have by default.
