Title: My Cougars headlust
Post by: Jreengus on January 18, 2008, 07:11:00 am
My main entrance to my fort is gaurded by a cougar, this is the entrance the goblin and kobold snatchers/theives enter through And ive noticed something insane, my cougar ALWAYS decapitates them, had about 10 who have run afoul of it so far and all have lost their heads and nothing else. Anyone else had an animal which only attacks one body part?

the last animal i had gaurding my fortress was a wolf that got whooped by kobold bowmen, it never killed anyone by a specific bodypart

I have 2 elephants guarding mine and the kobolds run away off the map before they get in range.

You would run to, kobolds are brave, but absolutely not stupid.

Just because he ran into a child while escaping doesn't mean anything. He obviously wasn't afraid of the child, or he wouldn't have been running toward it.

I highly doubt he was escaping he hadnt nicked anything and he was only revealed upon bumping into the child

Was your fortress well guarded?
