Well looking over the big long list as well as things posted here, I believe a lot of my concerns are already been suggested, but I still have a few left... why am i doing this when I just woke up and can't remember which hand is my left hand yet.. well that's a mystery....
First the much talked about slavery, been suggested many times before but I will put it out there again with my own spin
Slaves: Now how to capture the slaves is pretty straight forwards as I see it, either you inflict mercy to your soldiers so they don't kill Everything or you set up cage traps. my spin is what is done with them, First off, if they have the ability to learn let them learn, next while slaves will always have a want for home, under right conditions they might be willing to do some of the work as long as they are properly feed and treated, till that longing gets to strong and they try to escape. also children of slaves wouldn't have this urge for home, except for stories from there parents. now the question is how do you make a difference between well treated and badly treated other then food supply. perhaps options to beat slaves. different level of punishment for bad behavior?
Now the possibleways I see of using slaves is for simple jobs like hauling or cleaning of clothes (once that is added), basically putting them into the jobs of butlers and maids, also I could see, cutting and gathering wood and sand, esspically in dangerous area's
Demand two, A way to refill a square, you have plent of spare stone laying around, and natural stone is better for happyness, being able to engrave is something that I would like to do to every wall and floor. I know that we can currently create walls and floors but they can not be engraved to my knowledge.
Demand three. A way to "survey" the stone, esspcially once magic is implemented.
Demand four: Small arms. All dwarfs should carry some sort of weapon, more so when you start dwarf mode, out in the wilderness, with just two axes. I was thinking along the lines of small daggers so they weren't just wrestling.
I believe there is more... possible post later... wow this took me all day to post .. sorry ^^;
