I don't get this thread.  You can make this game harder?  Dudes, you can't win.


We might not be able to win but without some mods once you know what you're doing you can't lose too. "Losing is fun!" I want that kinda fun as well and that just doesn't happen anymore no matter the crazy things I do.

Does removing [SNATCHER] actually work? I did it once but instead of sieging they started sending caravans instead.

Are your buckets in the stockpile? For some reason dwarfs won't use buckets that are just randomly anywhere.

Just a guess but maybe your Dwarf liaison is dead and so there is no one that can report it?

I've never heard of kolbolds sieging forts before. Could we get a pic of this please?

Nah, it's the outside river. He is on a square in the middle of the river. I still think it's has something to do with the wife with her 15000gold, miscarriage or "meetings" with the mason guildmaster.

She has 15000gold while the next highest is around 2000gold. >_>

Nope, he didn't build the coffers and he got legendary by just making bed/bin/barrels/buckets so no artifact. I've had stuff stolen from a corpse of a dead peasant but when the raccoons left the map a message "raccoons stole something" came up so I know they tell you but I don't know if kolbold's tell you.

The carpenter is now dead after getting a hammering but I think I might know what the "artifact" is. Apparently his wife had a miscarriage. Thing is I didn't think anything was wrong with her when I checked since she was ecstatic the whole time. Even now after her husband died she is ecstatic swimming in her 15000gold. >_>

Of course this brings up the question of how she miscarriage and why she hasn't gone nuts too...  There weren't any monster attacks and she engraves so no sparring accidents. I'm starting to believe that the mason guildmaster did something to her during one of their "meetings".

Not me! Okay a real strange problems here. A masterwork of my legendary carpenter has been lost and someone has stolen his and two others coffers. Now I've checked everywhere as soon as that masterwork message came up and I see nothing. If a thief came and stole something I would of gotten a message for that too right?

Things that happened a few minutes before all this.
1)New immigrant miners drowns in outside river.
2)I start to build some cage traps.
3)I watched some recruits sparring in the barracks.
4)Calf in the middle of the river drowning.
5)A bunch of leather images made.

1.Maybe the canceled a health care job and kept the bucket with him?
2.Though I just started to make them but mechanic haven't even got to putting mechanisms in yet so I doubt someone took a cage.
3.All the beds in the barracks looks fine, just a little drenched in blood but that wouldn't cause a "masterwork lost" right?
4. It's late Spring so I have idea how this calf got in there since the ice went away ages ago. It's also not his pet.
5.Does the leather worker images makes them not masterworks?

There hasn't been anything else that could destroy one of the wood furniture like chasming or cave ins. No monsters or animal attacks for a while.
And then the whole missing coffers things comes in. The other two dwarfs with coffers missing haven't got pissed or anything.

This is driving me nuts here!

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Will POW goblin thieves fight ?
« on: August 07, 2007, 09:03:00 am »
I don't know about him but I got some goblin thieves during a kolbold thief raid. Kolbold ran right through the traps but the goblins didn't.

10
I've been saved! The mighty goblin heroes have saved the day by killing him before he could do anymore damage. Now that we're all friends*goblins kill elves* ah, well that wasn't needed but thank you*goblins kill 13 dwarfs* BAH!

I'd rather have the colossus back... =(


11
So the Colossus kills half the immigrants but I'm getting used to the cave life. The red walls of death do still bother me but hopefully they go away soon. Now, about Catapults, why aren't they hurting him? A 2nd rock has went right through him and not hit. Shouldn't he be in great pain or something?

12
Wow, you weren't joking about the sieges Genuine. Colossus kills the dwarf caravan  without injures. Then the goblin siege comes and he just smacks off the Trolls, takes the arrows like a man, brushes away the melee goblins, gives chase to the range goblin and makes the rest run off.

Kinda lucky I guess. I doubt I could've fought off that siege anyway so I guess I was saved. If he didn't stand around all the dead bodies this God of Destruction would be a good thing.


13
So, why isn't the Colossus hurt..? The rock from the catapult hit him dead on. He doesn't look hurt at all from before. Oh, god he is invincible!

14
Dang... Guess it's the cave life for me for a while. My military equipment is pretty much what ever I've picked up from the ground after sieges. The red wall of death is gonna be horrible. =(

15
Ah, poo. This is the best fort I've had so far and I don't want to lose half my dwarfs to this monster! He came after the Humans caravan so I though that they will deal with him by himself. I send my Elite Marksdwarf to help them and started to deal with the mass rotten food problem I was having.

Couple minutes pass and the Colossus and the Human are fighting out south of the road while the Caravans are leaving. Seeing a couple dead bodies I start to wonder at how strong this beast was. I check the list of deceased and I noticed that caravans, merchants and alot more Human Swordsmen are dead.

How'd they die, I don't see... OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! North of the road is a heap of bodies and those piles of wood aren't left over from trees. The Colossus must of wrecked them in the couple minutes I wasn't looking. At this moment I check back to the fight and it's only a Human Swordsman and my Elite Marksdwarf now Champion smashing the Colossus with his Wooden Crossbow.

Doing everything I could I was trying to make him leave the battle and retreat. The Human dies and the Colossus give chase to the Champion. Thank God that two war dogs came out of no where and threw themselves at the Tyrant and my Champion made it safely back to the cave. The big guy just goes back to his spot and a silly Carpenter goes out to loot the bodies losing his life.

He is only a little injured so my whole Military won't be able to take him on. So is the only way I'm gonna be able to take him on is to throw every Dwarf at him? Will he go away if I don't mess with him for a while? I'm kinda hoping that my training Siege Operator will smash him with a rock eventually for now. =(
