A '''magma forge''' is a [[metalsmith's forge]] which does not require [[charcoal]] or other [[fuel]], as long as it is positioned over [[magma]]. In order to function, the forge must be exactly one Z-level above a lava or magma square. Magma forges cannot draw from many Z-levels below themselves as [[Well|wells]] can. It must be built of [[fire-safe materials]]

A magma forge will not function unless at least one of its eight edge squares hang over a channel which has magma at a depth of 4/7 or more. [[Dwarves]] will not roast when working inside a magma forge, unlike the unlucky soldiers you station right next to the vent.

A magma forge no longer needs to be built with a magma safe anvil ([39c])

40d:Gem

2008-07-19T21:13:08Z

Pauven:

Small clusters of rough '''gems''' can be found strewn throughout the mountain. '''Cut gems''' can be used to [[encrust]] [[furniture]], [[crafts]], [[weapon]]s, [[armor]] and [[ammunition]], to create [[window]]s and as a source material for [[legendary artifact|legendary artifacts]]. In addition, raw rock crystals are required to make crystal glass goods. '''Large gems''' are a byproduct of cutting and can not be processed further.

== Value ==

Gems have base [[item values|value]] of 3 in rough form, which is multiplied by the appropriate value modifier from the table below. They gain value after they are cut in a [[jeweler's workshop]]. Cut gems have a base value of 5. Items can be decorated (encrusted) with cut gems; all such decorations have a value of 10 times the gem type's value multiplier. See [[Gem cutting]] and [[Gem setting]]. Large gems have a base value of 10.

== Varieties ==

Gems come in many varieties, with their own color and value multipliers:

Unlike other gems, diamonds can [[ignite]] if they come into contact with [[magma]].

== Rare Gems ==

Colored diamonds only occur in clusters of faint yellow diamonds, and star sapphires and rubies only occur within clusters of their peers. Faint yellow diamonds only appear in [[kimberlite]] (which itself only appears in [[gabbro]] layers) and sapphires and rubies only appear in [[bauxite]] (which occurs in any sedimentary layers).

Like working [[metal]], making glass requires [[fuel]], either [[coke]] or [[charcoal]] at a normal glass furnace, or [[magma]] at a magma [[glass furnace]].

Glass has other uses than as a mere gem, as glass can be used as (a rather odd looking) stone for most buildings, such as Tables or Doors. In addition, Glass can be converted into [[Trap]] components, such as large, spiked balls or giant axes. Glass trap components have the same weapon damage as wood or silver (50%).

Glass windows can be made at a glass furnace as an alternative to making windows from gems.

Outside of Metal and Wood, Glass is the only readily available material to create Cages out of, as well.

40d:Kobold

Pauven:

{{CreatureInfo|name=Kobold|symbol=k|color={{COLOR:6:0:0}}|butcher=no|

* [[Cave]]s
}}

'''Kobolds''' are small [[humanoid]]s, slightly smaller than [[dwarves]]. They are technologically backward and use [[copper]] [[weapon]]s.

Once your fortress has accumulated a certain amount of wealth, kobold [[thief|thieves]] will raid you in [[fortress mode]], generally, but not always, timing their attacks to coincide with the arrival of [[caravan]]s. Kobold thieves can even show up in [[calendar|winter]]. They are able to bypass any and all [[trap]]s, and are an excellent reason to channel all traffic in and out of your fortress through a single location which should be guarded at all times. Once discovered and caught, a kobold can generally be killed by any armed [[dwarf]] and most unarmed civilians. Be warned though that even the lowliest kobold thief will carry a copper [[dagger]], which can lead into severe injuries if you order an unarmed recruit to attack it.

Kobold marksmen parties may occasionally show up to ambush your dwarves outside once kobold thieves have successfully stolen some items. The kobolds will hold back and fire their [[bow]]s at all dwarves who venture near. This is not a [[siege]]. The kobolds will leave when they have no more [[arrow]]s. Due to the archers, these raiding parties can be quite dangerous to an unprepared fortress, especially one reliant on resources such as [[tree]]s and surface [[water]].
Other attacks can show up, such as a group of kobold spearmen (I was attacked a party of 8 spearmen just outside my fortress, and was given the ambush! message--[[User:Pauven|Pauven]] 13:02, 3 July 2008 (EDT)).
== Kobold Caves in Fortress Mode ==

Occasionally, on maps that have [[cave]]s present in them, you'll find a kobold cave. These pose a possible hazard to your dwarven settlers, as -- should they discover you and become irritated at your presence -- they will attack your settlement and any wandering dwarves they come across. As mentioned previously, kobolds aren't very tough, but when they gather in large numbers (with more than a few armed kobold guards and other nasty variations of the common kobold thrown in) they can pose a significant threat to your young, underprepared fortress. On the upside, in the vicinity of the kobold cave and inside the cave itself, you'll find all kinds of random trinkets and other items, with the possibility of valuable goodies being tossed in. If you manage to clear the kobold cave on your map, any potentially valuable junk that they've accumulated is yours for the taking.

== Kobold Caves in Adventure Mode ==

In adventure mode kobolds live in caves. They will have guards, soldiers, civilians, [[child]]ren, and the occasional quite dangerous weaponmaster. Kobolds are deadly with a bow but generally an easy match in melee, even for a novice adventurer. Kobold caves are full of trinkets, and they often wear [[cloth]]ing, weapons, and small-sized [[armor]].
