− | [[File: | + | [[File:Hills river swamp.jpg|thumb|River flowing into the hills]]A '''river''' is a body of [[water]] flowing from the [[mountain]] springs towards an [[ocean]] or a [[lake]]. Rivers serve as a terrain feature and gameplay element, coming in a variety of sizes and types. Larger ones will impede movement and may serve as a natural defensive boundary, while [[brook]]s, being the smallest type of river, can be crossed safely without needing to [[swimming|swim]], risk of [[drowning]], or even getting one's feet wet. In hilly terrain, particularly with [[cliff]]s, [[waterfall]]s can be found. Rivers can be the lifeblood of a fortress, potentially providing a renewable source of water and wildlife for [[fishing]], [[hunting]] or danger when traveling near them. They can also [[freezing|freeze]]. |

* Sometimes, the dwarves end up parking on the ice in cold regions, on arrival to a new settlement area. Needless to say, in places where ice can melt, this is quite dangerous and might result in a lot of [[fun]] when retrieving all the necessary stuff. | * Sometimes, the dwarves end up parking on the ice in cold regions, on arrival to a new settlement area.
