A necromancer siege in the first year is probably my fastest fort loss.

A necromancer siege was also the fate of my "first" fortress ("first" in quotes since there were other fortresses I had, but this is the first one I haven't abandoned). Locked my dwarves inside the fortress, but foreigners kept visiting and died. I had enough of this, so I made some spears, a quick military group, opened the hatches to the outside world and commanded them to fight the corpses. They died almost immediately. Not even a second and my entire military group was gone.

My mistake really, they were underprepared with wooden spears. (Also I have no idea if you can kill them)

If I said true, then I would have been a bad undercover cop.

The next poster has a friend who is a cop.

Got one of the best miners ever. Absolutely amazing at her job. Looked at her profile and realized she hasn't socialized... Stopped her from working to get a break and she got a boyfriend immediately!

Assigned the guy to mining so they could mine with their loved one. He found an expansive cavern and decided to sleep in it. I thought he was going to die in there and lost his way, but he managed to pull himself out.
