I searched for Embark and got nuthin - so this is better than that, if not by much. I'll be back later to work on it - If you feel you've got something valuable to add, feel free, this is a wiki after all. --Albedo 00:54, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

The term "embark" is far more than just location, depending how it's used, and it's used variably. It's a term that has a special adaptation in DF. It includes choosing location, but also choosing your equipment and your dwarfs, and their skills, and so on.
It's both that first world/regional/local screen, and the drop-off the moment your dwarfs land, before you unpause. It's used in all these ways (and possibly more.)
I agree we should use links rather than have redundant pages - but there is info that's not anywhere that I can find, and nothing that addressed this word as it's used. And that's exactly what a wiki does, describe how something is, practically speaking and from social pressure, rather than any "perfect model" of the topic.
