wonderful addition. i knew that some terrainean exploration would be necessary, but your idea of limiting it to one day once a month is really good. it would make the player plan far ahead to make that day as productive as possible. wow, this is starting to sound so fun. thanks for replying!

Oh yes, a sweet spot with world gen would be hard to find, but bouncing between ruins and stumbling upon large veins of ore would be a spectacular life for a dwarf! With underground farming and animal breeding, I imagine one would be able to make a respectable underground kingdom!

I was thinking about the possibility of doing a playthrough as a dwarf who is largely limited to the underground. To start, a steady supply of pickaxes and wood would be necessary, and underground farming may be the only way of getting food. I imagine that it would be in the dwarf's best interest to find ruins and excavate them from below. As for looking the part, I am a really big fan of Aillun's Goblin ears (and friends). And when water wheels come out, it would be awesome to use underground rivers as a source of mechanical power. So which things would be absolutely necessary in a playthrough like this? How might one get started? It's been a fun thing to think about logistically while playing.
