Had 2 funny baby related deaths today. A mother gave birth while training in a danger room. To say the least the baby did not make it. Dwarven abotion I guess The mother had a tantrum and kicked a dog breaking it's lower spine. She was tossed in jail and I kid you not the baby came back as a ghost and killed her in her cell. Deathworked has to be the most interesting fort I have played! The dog is still alive, update when the dog dies.

Well my fort DeathWorked(good name considering...) has been set up completely. Had one mining related death due to a cave-in. 5 dwarfs died due to a really bad infection that spread quickly. They where sealed off in the hospital till they died. Made a new hospital so I don't have to worry about the bodies exposing other dwarfs to that nasty thing. And the last bit of excitement came from many ambushes happening at once. First was kolbolds, they killed my guard dogs quickly but the floodgates cut off their entrance to my fort. Just after that a gabbo ambush appeared and started fighting the kolbolds. That happened 3 more times but in the end I got lots of metal to melt and not one dwarf was hurt at all. Now I am trying to get a breeding pair of elephants or black bears from the elfs. I got one of each.

welcome to dwarf fortess and remember losing is fun

But gory deaths are hysterical!

I got 3 ghosts haunting my current fort. I can not find the bodies to bury. 2 of the ghosts just haunt one dwarf at a time, nothing hard to deal with with lots of expensive stuff in their rooms. The other ghost has killed 2 dwarfs already. Should I let them just all die to the ghosts? It's that or a magma flood.

I have had great luck by killing them with swords. A scimitar can take off their legs easy and then they become slow. Just pick them off after that.

I just turn the dwarfs room in to a tomb after they die. It's already decorated and and it save me from having to dig more shit out.

Now that sounds like fun fish!
