The dwarven compendium is an illustrated, inofficial handbook for dwarf fortress.

It's meant as handbook that, once it's finished, will cover every core mechanic of dwarf fortress and be a good alternative for the magmawiki. It's not a tutorial that will guide you step by step (even though a small tutorial chapter will eventually be included) but a reference book that even the more experienced players should find useful.

I started this project in february 2014 and I'm constantly updating the compendium.

I try to give it a semi professional look, all pages are paginated and in a relative big resolution so I guess they will look nice if you print them. (All pages are in the din a4 landscape format with a resolution of 300dpi).

Don't withold with your feedback, suggestions and critique!

You can contact me either on the official board (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=116151.0) or on reddit (http://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=panthesatyr).

Note that I only spent a few hours daily on polishing existing graphics and working on the next one, so it will take some time till these are finished - this is meant as a longterm project. But i will upload each finished Page so you can see how this projects grows over time. I will aim at uploading at least one page per week.

PS: Feel free to upload, distribute and even edit the compendium for any non-commercial use.
