There is a known bug that if you drop enough animals in the magma it "breaks it". The animals will swim through the magma until you reload. Had you perchance pitted some kittens or something earlier to help your fps?

On a former map I breached the cave river, and it was chock full of cave creatures. At this time I had about 14 Dwarves. It was a long way from my fort so my miner escaped and all the creatures were just hanging out in a tunnel. Later a few of my dwarves were injured and the cave river was the only water source. I had only a little metal industry set up, and I didn't want to waste time while my injured dwarves were without water, so I pumped out a few iron weapons, a few rock swords and a couple of crossbows. The only armor was a couple of bone pieces. I recruited my 12 unijured Dwarves and I had an epic battle. Only 1 dwarve died and a couple were injured, but recovered. My expidition leader got 6 kills.

  • Europa universalis has reached third installment some time ago, but maybe you've played it already? Anyway, similar game: Hearts of Iron 2, same developer, similar mechanics, different setting, equally challenging and fun. Try playing Poland and conquering Germany. Or invading USA with your Japanese marines.

This. Grab anthology with both expanisions and grab the latest beta patch which makees the AI much more capable. Also, Hearts of Iron 3 is coming out pretty soon with over 9000 10000 land provinces, Europa Universalis 3 has 1700.

What I do to train is to wander around the world killing ambushers. However I try to only maim/make them unconcious and then choke them to death. This gives you both weapon xp, and wrestling xp(which makes you dodge more often).

EDIT: On a side note, anyway to stop the constant partying? My miners,my mason and my leader have partied away an entire season soon and missed a caravan already.  >:( Lazy drunkards.

Don't designate meeting halls from buildings, such as wells, cages, tables designated as meeting halls, or statues. If you have any cancell them. Instead use the area zoner (i) to designate a meeting area, where idle dwarves and animals will congregate but will not party.

Edit: If you have a very large fortress with more Dwarves than you can give work to then you may want to let them party. I prefer just to make them do busywork however.

epic hammerer

Yeah the Hammerer can be pretty badass, and even better he will be unable to hammer anybody!


The only really epic thing I ever had was a lumbercutter who was ambushed, so I figured he was a gonner and drafted him. He killed enough Goblins to drive off the two ambushes and was uninjured.

I knew a guy who had aspbergers. He was extremely socially inept, and had fixations of Fox New, Bill O'reily, and Dubya. If anyone said anything even remotely negative about any of these he would fly of the hook and start yelling at whoever said that. It was too bad because in all other respects he was an intelligent guy.

He really just cannot tell that what he's doing is considered inappropriate without being told.

Exactly like this.

Build an Asylum for the poor people you captured. I suppose they need to be kept in their cages to be fed, but you could put them somewheres nice, perhaps with a waterfall and some engravings.
