Regarding the Map

[Gregracious]

Once seven players are selected as dwarfs and a fortress name is decided, I will use that name as the map generation seed. Before we start gameplay I will post a video/screenshots of what the world looks like so it should give players a chance to plan.

The size of a normal DF map is 257x257. We will be using this as the area for the map.

To speed the start up, if you all want to go ahead and create a fortress name and I will randomly select one to be picked. Once that is done I'm going to generate the world using the name. Then I will provide details on the type of location like: tundra/aquifer/vegetation/etc. You will use this to determine what supplies you should select on startup. After all that is done, I will post some screenshots of the landscape and then you will embark!
