v0.31 Talk:Monarch
monarch bug
The monarch showed up before promotion to duchy, and simply sat on the edge of the map with her consort. Her entourage joined, including various legendary weapon masters. When I used Runesmith to move her inside, she and her consort ran all the way back to the border. Sounds similar to the old 'non-dwarven king' bug.Uzu Bash 15:53, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
Arrival of the king
This might be a stupid question, but I don't really get the "wealth in roads"-part of the arrival condition. Does it mean exports, building paved roads or something else? Aavemursu 28 October 2010
The Wealth In Roads is just the worth of the items you used to build paved roads. You can use Steel bars to fulfill the requirement really fast.
- You can also use bridges which count toward road value - Celem
Adamantine King
This seems completely removed from 2010 Df. Only trigger to monarch seems to be previously known requirements and duchy -Celem
Death of a King
What happens to the state of the world if your monarch dies at your fortress? – unsigned comment by 70.76.91.114
I believe you get another one. Doomdome 00:29, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- I havent yet tested this in 2010. However there is usually no mechanism for replacing a monarch lost like this. Monarchs that die during worldgen are succeeded by their heir or a new line begins. Those that die at your fortress do not get replaced. -Celem
Not a bad Queen at all
I was desperate for some legendary warriors, so I decided to try to attract a king or queen. Sure mandates can be annoying, but hopefully worth it.
Eventually the Queen arrived with her consort. Neither of them has any preferences for materials or items, and they haven't made any mandates at all. They will happily haul things around, operate pumps, and even join the army!
Did I get lucky, or do Kings and Queens normally not have preferences for anything? Do they normally make mandates?
- I seem to recall they did in 40d, but I had the same experience as you with a King in DF2010. He seems to be weirdly aloof, actually; most thoughts don't seem to stick to him. If I recall correctly, he cares about his length of patrol duty, slaughter, and very little else. Environmental objects, food and drink, and sleeping in his Royal Bedroom all leave him completely unfazed. —Chaos 00:20, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
- I suspect this is all to do with existing during world gen, incidentally. Much like the fact that he has Tracker skill. —Chaos 00:21, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
does 140 population is demand?
Does Monarch need to many inferiors? Count and Baron in DF2010 have decreased own desires. --Cypselus
