Also, I have questions:

Were they caged?

If they weren't, how did you keep them there? Pit?

If they were, how did you drop the cage? Was the cage constructed or just an item?

Finally, if the cage fell, how did the explosion happen? Did the game just treat the cage as if it wasn't there and explode all the animals?

They were probably in a pit

If they were caged it would have had to have been attatched to a lever, suspended over a lever-operated support to cause a cave in.

My latest fortress is from a survival challenge issued by my friend.

7 unskilled dwarves, an iron anvil, and 2 copper nuggets.

Hope you have exposed magma...

That's a really great article o.o

I didn't think of putting a specific type of seed by the specific farm.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / What is your current project?
« on: July 12, 2009, 07:26:08 pm »
I completed my aqueduct/bridge over an ocean thing and it was rather unimpressive, only took two years of full time devotion and I ended up with over 60 dwarves, and that's with orcs sitting outside my gates.

Then I was going for a massive population fort, but I was running into a lot of water difficulties so I'm postponing it.

Now I'm thinking about making some massive pyramids with tombs/vaults and lots of traps. And modded hostile elves...

How about you guys? BRAINSTORM THREAD GO

...fleets of war jaguars?

If you're going to make them trainable, you might as well make them amphibious and/or fliers too.

Could you build over it to make it "inside" and melt?

Your goblin liaison likely resided at a dark fortress when the dwarves conquered it. He joined the civ to avoid elimination, and then he somehow worked his way to become the outpost liaison.

And the friendly goblins at embark is a known bug.

...That is awesome.

You can get them in a cage somehow, I think if you tame them.

Can you put them in a pit?

I don't see what that has to do with gay marriage.

I have one that is more like ironic than funny.

Udil Stabbeddye

A brief backstory, I was getting annoyed by antmen, giant rats (who mostly just ran) and a few giant moles which were outside of an exposed chasm. So, I decided to activate all seven of them to go and kill some of the critters. He ended up losing both eyes somehow, most likely in a fight with an antman. The ironic thing is that Stabbeddye sounds like stabbed eye(s). He woke up about half a year later or something. Initially he kept going unconscous but soon he toughened up (just from doing normal work I guess) and stopped doing that. BTW, he is my brewer.

Luckily, nobody died in that little adventure even though several of them were pissed for a while and two others got injured (both recovered).

You like fish sticks?
