Yay! I went looking for this thread a week ago and couldnt find it. Bookmarked it now.

Started a new fort in the newest version of 2010.  I still cant figure out the military, but the hunting dog wiped out 8 rhesus macaques all by herself, and I got a lame artifact ring with claystone and cave spider silk.

I'm honestly starting to become ashamed of the community.  All of our talk, all of our scheming and bragging, all the glorious and brutal ways we've managed to weaponize everything from actual weapons (re-weaponized?) to grass.  The world is our armory, and yet here we falter and die for lack of a scrap of iron.

Dwarf up and get working.

I don't even have iron at Largebusts, mind it's 40d so wrestling military is no issue.

They fight DRAGONS, man!

Apparently, chickens are the new cats.  Thankfully, they don't adopt anyone.  I'd agree with danger room, and make a refuse pile and butcher shop nearby.

Its a normal occurrence, dwarves go to whoever the expedition leader/mayor is to complain (they usually get a happy thought afterwords). Unless the leader is empathetic to others needs they get an unhappy thought at listening to people whine.



Aye, this is my problem right here lol.  I work in inbound/outbound customer service...and oh I get sick of the bitching and whining.

'Nyxalinth has been happy lately.  there were bagels in the break room.  She had to listen to people whine all day...'

Long story short--latest goblin siege killed a raw recruit and a royal guard.  The friends of said have begun tantruming, and two people went mad and drowned themselves.  Another is berzerk after tantruming and killing a kitty.  Thankfully she's locked in her room, though if I get bored before she starves I might let her out.  One of the tantrumming marksdwarves could go all Charles Starkweather on me, so I'm keeping an eye on him, too.

As I'm writing this, another marksdwarf has gone mad, so we'll see what happens.  Aaaaand one of the wrestlers just went berserk, and there's a kitty at his feet...and a farmer nearby!

Close call--a nearby wrestler took him down, saving the day.

For now!


EDIT--Okay, my newly legendary carpenter needs to die.  Why? Because he did a chair with images of elves massacreing dwarves.  No lava, but I am sure we can arrange to have him left outside during the next siege....

Now that was one bored kid.

I wish I had that kind of focus, and I'm an adult

Here I got all excited thinking Toady had added new !!Fun!! in the form of explosives!

"Hey! You there!"
"Zuh?"
"YOU will be our liaison to Deathbutter!"
"But I just make soap-"
"SILENCE! Ready the shipment of yak brains!"

the soapmaker Urist McSudsy has come!  Beware his deadly cleansing action!

I dunno, whenever the game tells me 'The X Urist McX has come!' I always think of the FB announcement.
