No, really.

Dwarf fortress has gotten so lifelike I think Toady has broken the plane between the worlds. I didn't even know they were aggressive in real life. Or dangerous. Next thing you know, Carp will be dragging people into the rivers and drowning them.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Embarking on an army
« on: July 24, 2014, 10:59:56 am »
Has anybody had any luck embarking on a location that an army happens to be passing through? Your seven dwarves and their god - the wagon - start looking around and notice an army of dwarves fresh from conquest, just passing through.

And can an army just pass through your site after you embark? Bandits can, but it means they are attacking you, but what about your civ's army's coming through? They are moving around the world as you build your fortress now, right?

Too bad you couldn't find the regular roads used by armies, and park your embark on it. I kind of miss having regular sieges without having to go and try to find somewhere fun. I've only lost one dwarf to drowning, and killed one goblin in a year and half. Going to have to start a war with the humans or elves to get some fun going.
