Your Morul challenge, Martin, is amazuhzing. How is it going right now? Doesn't he only have a few more weapon skills left? Or did the orcs finally overrun you?

God, Hippocarps. Just speaking, reading, writing, or thinking the name crumbles a fortress to abandoned ruins.

I kind of did. The "accident" mentioned earlier was a flooded fortress.

I never expect Lord GimpyPants to ever survive. He was never legendary at all during his career. I think he maybe got to professional spear, professional shield, and skilled armor. After a while I actually started hoping he'd just die. Having to feed and water him distracted a lot of my important dwarves from important tasks when it was their turn.

Although they do bring logs, which I need..

In my games, humans and dwarves have brought me wood with or without me requesting it. They sell you it for 3 dwarf bucks a pop as apposed to the expensive elf wood shit they try to sell me.

How much are unicorn bones worth? Are they anything compared to mermaid bones?

If they tasted blood, they will attack your dwarves.

too bad his heroically-earned name sounds like a dwarven STD.

Yes, too bad indeed.
My hero would have to be one "Lord GimpyPants", so named for his.... injuries. His first injury was recieved after he was going around patrol of the Trade Depot while the Lunast Dwarves traded with me. He found an ambush, then his pet cat found the other one right next to him. He single-handedly faught and killed both squads of 7-8 each with just a spear, a buckler, and some leather armor. Both his legs were mangled. He recieved his next set of injuries 5 years later, 2 months after he recovered. He was patrolling with his squad while I was sending civilians outside on a building mission. The rest of his squad was eating and the civilians found 5 ambushes of 10+ gobbos each, some even had dwarves stolen in worldgen. He faught and killed 4 of the squads (he had chain mail and an iron shield at this time though), before having his back crushed by a hammer. Just at that time my legendary maceman came and killed the rest in 2.3 seconds. His lower spine and right leg were broken. 7 years after that, a similar situation happened, he killed all 3 ambushes but both his feet broke. Things like this continued on until a... uhm.... "accident" happened to the fortress. But the moral of the story is, Lord GimpyPants was a destroyer of worlds.

I haven't seached the entire bottom z-level yet, just most of it. I've had to put that whole stuff on hold though due to some unseen events (Elf revenges from me stealing their stuff and so on...)

Can't wait for the next release. So much new and improved stuff. Great fun. Probably hard as hell for Toady One and Three Toe to do I'd think. That's just me though probably, I suck at that kind of stuff.

That's what I've been doing for a while now. I'm at the lowest z-level and digging until I find something. I have usually 10 miners at all times, not a drop of magma yet.

I hate the elves because they are useless. They've never had any caged animals I couldn't catch myself, all they bring is cloth (not even silk stuff for insane people), they sell wood for extremely outrageous prices, I can buy it from dwarves and humans for 3* each, or just cut it down myself, and they smell.

Just watch the first 5-6 captnduck videos. They show you the basics. Then as you progress, watch more of his videos. When confused on something refer back to the videos or the wiki. That's exactly what I did and the only thing I'm confused with is which is the most efficient/fun way to kill elves.
