The Dwarven Race RTD

Introduction


The Dwarven Race is a racing based RTD featuring customizable race cars, foul play, and hostile courses. The setting is in Tarn (Toady) Adam's Dwarf Fortress.

The original RTD dates back to before the RTD subsection was even created. Thus making it one of the first few RTDs to exist on the forums alongside Sean Mirrsen's Multiworld Madness.

There have been 3 topics started to this date.

Parts List
Racers are constructed by purchasing componants such as chassis,engine,wheels,weapons, and so forth. Typically in order to participate a racer must have at least a chassis and engine.

A particularly interesting item that can be bought are 'henchdwarves', these unskilled peasants can be used to operate the various features of the participant's racer, leaving him to the ever important task of driving the vehicle. Henchdwarves have a short expected lifespan however, and are basically the dwarven equivilant of Redshirts. Luckily, the standard henchdwarf comes with free replacements in case of death.
