There seems to be a glacier in the frozen north, and it appears to be moving and leaving "scoured bedrock" in its path. It is located around -774/848. Here is a picture of it. I'd say itcovers about 200 squares.  The white streak in the middle is the glacier, the brownish whitish part around it is the "scoured bedrock." ------------- "Semantics are no protection from a 50 Megaton Thermonuclear Stormcrow."-Yggdrassil (June 21, 2011 6:48 PM) "SCROLL ya donut!"

| Interesting. How do you know that it is moving and what is the rate of movement ? |

| I think its rate of movement would be "glacial" and thus will probably never be visible over the average lifetime. There is at least one other that I know of as well. |

Very nice... The idea of dynamic terrain is interesting. I believe active volcanoes were proposed some time ago, but the idea was ditched. Nobody wanted lava erupting onto their city. I wonder what will become of unfortunate towns that lay in the glaciers path? |

Unless they are Dwarves, they probably can move fast enough to avoid it... ;) |

Maybe if you claim a tile it will move around the map  Then again, maybe not  |
