"the military budget is only half of the total cost problems, so its not that serious".... Jesus christ man, can you not see what's wrong with that statement?

With all the stuff people have done to kittens in DF, PETA isn't exactly about to become more pissed off by some animal dissecting.

Sinter is the word your looking for there i beleive. And indeed, you can get almost anything in almost any material 3d printed nowdays. for a price.

Don't forget to mention what mods your using guys. I see people saying things like "large solid boosters with small ones" etc. Which is all well and fair if you have them installed, but they're not part of the base game.

You really do need to reform the electoral district (insert US name for it) system you guys have in that regard.

I've got no idea what their physics model is like, however going from a single mass to two or more is a very large step in complexity. It might take a while though. (however... when i can fly to a moon space station... and back... well christ that'd be epic wouldn't it)

As someone pointed out above, print media is in such a miserable state today that if newscorp did get control of BskyB, they could probably shut down all of their newspapers and still be making more money. fact of the matter is newspapers are a dying breed now anyway.

According to figures a local media commentry show here pulled up, total profit of all newcorps newspapers world wide, under 500 million dollars in 2010, whereas BskyB was 1.2 billion.

What' are the changes?

Has steam ever caused a problem with modding a game?

I was more wondering about the reanimating part of a necromancer attack then them actually attacking. I had seen it mentioned that they would attack in one of the dev logs, but I don't follow the DFtalks. Ether way, its going to be fun.

Is there any idea what sort of interaction undead is going to have with play fortresses? Because i'd love to see, say, a single necromancer arrive at the fort "pah, i think". Then he walks over to the refuse pile with the goblin corpses from the last siege. "whoops i think". After battering down my defenses, he makes his ways to the crypt. After that dwarves are killed by their reanimated friends aswell as goblins. something like that would be epic.

Burial slab instead?

You know, I can just see it now. A future civilization 10,000 years from now in a panic because the chimes are about to repeat, signalling the end of the world.

:)

That thought came to me last night as i was going to bed again. Mayan calandar all over again

Though i've not watched the walkthrough videos and cannot attest to their quality, that's pretty much the idea sort of manual. Short of that some sort of illustrated guide would be the next best thing, and one of those probably already exists too.
