First megabeast attack of the new version! A dragon came in from the western edge of the map in the third year, and promptly set fire to the forest. It scorched just about the entire map except for my aboveground entrance, which was protected by a water filled moat. It came into the outer perimeter to kill a watchdog, then just kinda chilled out outside the gate to the depot area. I assembled my militia and lowered the gates, fully expecting them to block the dragonfire with their shields like the last version. Not so.
As soon as the gate lowered, the dragon set the unfortunates in the front on fire while the rest promptly broke and ran. Of course it chased them, spewing fire and generally wreaking havoc. I had to shut the reserve gate on what was left of the broken militia to keep the dragon from getting into the fort where I had no way to stop it. Not long later the caravan arrived, and one of the guards stabbed it in the head, killing it instantly
I think people have gotten whole rooms to break down crying with a shout
In case I wasn't clear, the information is being passed along -- I think people have gotten whole rooms to break down crying with a shout, for instance. It's just that only one person replies verbally.
Wow, I did not realize that talking still had a cursor attached. *Facepalm* I figured the menu would stop the cursor, but this makes a whole lot more sense. Thanks for the clarification Toady!
well im trying to set up a fight in arena mode so i can see what combat will be like when morale is fixed but i keep messing up and having to start again

Shouting should pass the information along to everybody in the room, but one person hogs the other end of the conversation right now. You can use the cursor if you want to select one person and not shout.
Is there any way to specify who you shout at? It's annoying being in the middle of like 20 kids and 1 lord, trying to get a quest from the lord, but instead the kids answer. I could be missing something, but I don't think so.
i was just disapointed when i learnt that all shouting does is put you in a conversation with 1 person i wanted to walk into the taven and anounce my kills to the whole room although wouldent it be easier to just select the lord instead of trying to shout
That's what I'm asking. I can't select who to talk to, unless they start the conversation. The only two options are to "Shout out to Everybody" or talk to Urist McDeity.
This is bad. I can't even do nuthin'. Ah, to hell with it. Get one of my assasins and send him after Azelia.
