40d Talk:Anvil
Revision as of 16:01, 14 February 2008 by DaveLawson (talk | contribs)
So is it possible to easily procure an anvil within the first 1-2 years? because if it is, then I'm going to ditch it on the embark screen and spend those 1000pts on turtles.
- Thats a lot of turtles. Get dogs instead. Imagine a swarm of pooches descending on a goblin fortress, taking no prisoners, and leaving no goblin child behind! --Ikkonoishi 15:33, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- In my experience the first dwarven caravan brings one. However they will charge you dearly for it (~1000$), moreso if the anvil is steel (~3000$). Prices are from memory. Anonymousphrase 15:51, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- The caravan has a high chance of bringing one, it is not certain. --Soyweiser 09:27, 8 November 2007 (EST)
- Dearly yes, but a well made stack of food will cover the cost of a steel one so it's not hard to buy out the caravan. I had one caravan turn up with two steel anvils and a stack of plump helmet (5). Seems that was all they could carry :( --10:21, 8 November 2007 (EST)
- True, but that does take some planning. I never got enough cash (what is the correct dwarven word, the value word...) to buy the anvil in the first year, but I'm stupid and focus on creating goblets, and making enough beds etc for my dwarfs. --Soyweiser 13:57, 8 November 2007 (EST)

I have created a zinc anvil (value 200). Is this a bug?
I'd definitely been left high and dry by the first dwarven caravan before. Took me three long years before I was finally able to get my hands on an anvil!
