Guide to Surviving the First Year:
----------------------------------
Written by Great Dog

I have finals this week. But I have been playing this game for 4 years
almost every day, so I want to give a few macro pointers for new people.

-=Things Your Dwarves Need=-
Move all your stuff into a safe spot, preferably underground.

Then…

You will always need

* Beds.
* Booze.
* Fresh Water Source in case ??? freezes (it can be dirty just get
it done indoors and underground).
* Food source -fish,meat, or veggies/fruit.

-=Kind of important=-
* Make sure your animals are penned under grass if they are the kind
that eat grass.
* Try and aquire cloth of each type, try to have several gems cut and uncut,
and anything else you need for strange moods.
* Build a door, and use it to cover your dwarves hidey hole
(you can manually lock enemies out).
* Designate a broker before autumn
(assuming you are connected to your civ [islands are not]).
* Make some barrels.
* Make some tables.
* Make some chairs.
* Make some wheelbarrows (great for trading and easy to make [although this
version makes them heavy and trade caravans have a weight limit]).
* Make some crafts (for elves).
* Make a manager.
* Make large custom stockpiles that dont include corpses, stone, or wood.
* Make large seperate indoor stockpiles that include stone and wood.
* Make a hidden outdoor stockpile that includes corpses.
* Make a few coffins and manually place them, and designate them as a tomb
so you dont forget.

-=Not important but do it anyway=-
* Make a hospital, figure out how to make hospital staff work in this verison.
* Make a meeting hall.
* Make a temple.
* Make a library.
* Make a military.
* Make well.
* Aquire gypsum plaster.
* Make prepared food with a cook.
* Make a lot of crafts.

-=Cats and Dogs=-
Do not pen Cats and Dogs unless you have several petlocked doors where they
cant see things or go places. your dwarves will constantly have to corral
them back to the pens.

Also, make sure you geld your animals when you have plenty, you can only
geld males, and cannot spay females. There is a good chance your female
animals are already pregnant by the time the last male is gelded, which means
the babies need to be gelded too.

-=Final Notes=-
* Everything that moves slows the game down.
* 200 dwarves is the max, and is way too many
* More than 100 animals pathing is dangerous and dumb.
* Beware cat explosions (so many babies).
* Do not underestimate water. The movement of ground water is so strange
and occult, that to try and govern it will only lead to your eventual
demise. Also water movement slows your game.

Have fun, don’t get into the habit of save scumming, the game is better as
a story game than a construction and management game. The end of your fortress
is a story, and therefore fun.



Useful Tips and Tricks:
-----------------------
Written by Krakun

Collection of tips I’ve learned over the years for Dwarf Fortress.

* If you’re new to the game, I’d suggest starting in a warm biome so you
wont have to get a cistern built before winter.
* Mined stone impedes movement, dump it and reclaim it once cleared out.
* When setting garbage zones, they can be 1 square and infinite in stack.
This is useful for clearing out stone from mined areas into a single stack.
* The same technique can be used to create a destruction zone, by building a
flood gate on the same square, open it, put items into zone, then close the
flood gate. All items occupying that spot will be vaporized.



10 Tips for beginners:
----------------------
* Start with a pre-generated world. Dwarf Fortress allows players to
create their custom worlds, but this can be daunting for beginners.
Instead, try starting with a pre-generated world, which will have a
variety of biomes, resources, and challenges to explore.

* Use the tutorials. Dwarf Fortress includes a series of tutorials to help
players learn the basics of the game. These tutorials cover the building,
farming, crafting, and combat topics and can provide a valuable starting
point for players new to the game.

* Focus on the basics. Dwarf Fortress has many different mechanics and
systems, but beginners must first focus on the basics. Establish a reliable
food supply, build a few workshops, and recruit some dwarves to build your
fortress.

* Explore the world. Dwarf Fortress is set in a vast, interesting world
full of different biomes, resources, and creatures. As your fortress grows,
send out expeditions to explore the surrounding area and gather valuable
resources.

* Manage your dwarves. Your dwarves are the lifeblood of your fortress, and
it is important to manage them carefully. Make sure to assign them to
different tasks, such as farming, crafting, or mining, and keep an eye on
their mood and happiness.

* Build carefully. Dwarf Fortress allows players to build intricate and
complex structures, but planning carefully and building logically are
important. Avoid building too quickly, as this can lead to collapses and
other disasters.

* Defend your fortress. As your fortress grows, it will attract the attention
of various hostile creatures, such as goblins and trolls. Build defenses,
such as walls and traps, to protect your dwarves from these threats.

* Keep track of your resources. Dwarf Fortress has a detailed resource system;
keeping track of your food supplies, stone, and other materials is important.
Make sure to plan and ensure that you have enough resources to meet the needs
of your fortress.

* Learn from your mistakes. Dwarf Fortress can be challenging, and your first
few attempts at building a fortress will likely fail. Don’t be discouraged;
try to learn from your mistakes and use that knowledge to improve your next
fortress.

* Have fun! Above all, Dwarf Fortress is a game, and it is important to
enjoy the experience. Don’t be afraid to experiment and try new things, and
don’t worry too much about making mistakes. With a little practice and
patience, you can build a thriving fortress and have a great time doing it.



Some tips on how to win easily:
-------------------------------
* Start small: Don’t build a huge fortress immediately. Start with a small,
manageable fortress and expand as your dwarves become more experienced and
skilled. This will help you avoid overwhelming yourself and allow you to
learn the game’s mechanics and systems before tackling more challenging tasks.

* Focus on essentials: Make sure your dwarves have access to food, water,
and shelter. These are the most important resources; your fortress will
quickly fail without them. Keep an eye on your food and water stocks, and
ensure that your dwarves have enough to last through the winter. It would
be best to prioritize building bedrooms, kitchens, and other essential
rooms to ensure your dwarves have a place to sleep and eat.

* Manage your resources: In Dwarf Fortress, resources are a limited and
valuable commodity. Keep track of your stocks of food, water, and other
resources, and make sure that you have enough to last through the winter.
Try to produce as much as possible, and prioritize the resources most
important to your fortress’s survival. For example, if you’re low on food,
you might want to focus on farming and animal husbandry to increase your
supplies.

* Prioritize safety: Protecting your dwarves from threats is crucial to the
success of your fortress. Invest in defenses such as walls, traps, and
weapons to protect your fortress from cave-ins, animal attacks, and other
hazards. You should also train your dwarves in combat to defend themselves
and your fortress from invaders.

* Keep your dwarves happy: Unhappy dwarves are more likely to cause problems
and may even abandon your fortress. Make sure that your dwarves have enough
food, alcohol, and entertainment to keep them satisfied. This might mean
building a tavern or a library or organizing festivals and events to lift
their spirits.

* Remember, Dwarf Fortress is a complex and challenging game, and no single
strategy will guarantee success. The best way to win is to experiment,
learn from mistakes, and adapt to your fortress’s challenges. By following
these tips and using your ingenuity, you can build a thriving fortress in
Dwarf Fortress.
