DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Exploration Missions? Kobold Caves?
« on: September 20, 2019, 06:52:11 pm »
After years of not finding any GCS in the three cavern layers under my fortress, I read on the wiki that kobold caves can be raided for tame giant caves spiders. I found a cave that has both kobolds and GCS, but I can't raid it from the mission menu. I didn't have caves set as always visible in world generation, is that required to send out a raid to a cave? Can I change that option my messing with the world's files, if so?
Also related to world generation, I haven't been attacked by any megabeasts whatsoever, despite the world being 20 years old, my fortress easily blasting past the wealth limit. I do only have 30 dwarves in the fortress(Helps me keep track of them), but I've been told that you only have to exceed one of the three requirements for a megabeast attack. There are dozens of megabeasts in the world, but none of them want to steal my vast riches(so that I can capture them for the zoo). What gives?

So, I have a semi-trained cave dragon that I want to set as a guard to keep underground nasties out of my fortress. It's moderately well-trained, but it's going to be near some nice furniture in my militia commander's room. What are my risks? As I understand it, so long as I keep someone assigned to the dragon to train it, it won't revert to a fully-wild state unless the trainer is unavailable for some time. However, if it *does* happen, will my steel chain keep it held until I can set up cage traps to retrain it? I've not found anything on the wiki to say one way or another, so I'd appreciate some advice from anyone who has experience with something similar.

DF Gameplay Questions / Do werebeast recur? And a few other questions.

Hey, I just had a were-MAMMOTH attack my fortress, he killed my expedition leader, legendary miner, and two soldiers. He is strong and freaking FAST. Will he come back? And also, what is the best way to trap him? Can I use a cage trap, and if so, can it be tamed?

DF Gameplay Questions / Help! Quickly! Gobbies are attacking!
« on: March 30, 2012, 03:27:15 pm »
Guys, I need help. I have been ambushed, and a gobbie group is heading toward my base.  My military isn't up to the task. How do I get my dwarves inside so I can close the drawbridge? Also, when I close my bridge, will it block crossbow bolts? And will the goblins leave eventually?

DF Gameplay Questions / Animal training zones
« on: March 29, 2012, 04:25:13 pm »
Where can I place animal training zones? I go into the zones, but I don't see it in the menu. I've searched all over the web, but I can't seem to find out how. I want to tame some cage animals, but I can't. I know the answer is probably something ludicrously simple, but I can't figure it out. Can someone help me out?
