Happened to me, too!

Started off by hitting random keys, found out how to dig, tried to use (i) zones as (p) stockpiles.
Then I found out about tilesets. Mayday was, and still is, my favorite.
Then I found afteraction, that helped me out a lot.
Stayed like that for a long time, then found dwarf therapist. I use it sometimes, but I'd rather set jobs manually through (v)

Children can remove buildings
I accidentally 7 of my kids today when I designated a bunch of floor tiles over lava to be removed. Little suckers killed their friends by taking out all the tiles around them, causing cave-ins. It was very entertaining to watch!

I kinda like everything.
The mosquitos are pretty great too, surprisingly. Free crossbow training for my marksdwarves, and the giant pack ended up taking out a goblin siege that probably would have killed me fortress.
Haven't had any vampires yet at 102 dwarves. Only had one necro, which I caged and threw into a magma pipe. A child werewolf showed up and ran off before I could fight it.
Tried some evil embarks. First one, the tendrils killed my framerate. On my second one now, my only macedwarf died destroying some dead animals. Then infernal ash killed my woodcutter/carpenter. Walling myself in until migrants come.

Hm, that's weird, it was at a half moon, iirc.
And do you have a link to the weaponization thread?

Overpost, sorry

For those of you still looking for a tileset, Mayday has one out
-Loving the new version. Did a normal embark, no evil biome for me yet. Hunters got a tracking skill. Tons of new animals. Different packs of animals keep showing up on my map, then wandering off, which I think is pretty cool. The perigreene falcons are a bit annoying though.
-My first caravan got here, everything was cheap as hell. Steel helm for 400 dwarf bucks.
-Be careful when you tap magma. I just did it, and a ton of smoke spewed out and claimed the life of my immigrant novice miner with a copper pick. Nothing of value was lost. Now he's showing up as missing. Tried to write him a slap, can't do it yet.
-Looks like combat skills are training a lot faster.
-Sort of miss Dwarf Therapist, but I learned how to play DF without it for the first 9 months I played. I sort of like doing it manually anyways.
-Noticed toady brought the hammerer back. Pretty cool.
-Finally found the moon tracker, top right hand corner.
-Loving the new units page.
