Human intelligence > Artificial Intelligence.

Procedurally generated HFS doesn't throw things for their range. They rely on webs, material breath weapons, fire, and acid blood.

Try "electu". It worked for that in the last version.

I'll be easy to dwarf. So...
Give me a (migrant?) dwarf named Urist, give him the Siege Engineering and food hauling labors and nothing else, and give him "Siegebreaker" as a profession.

I've had a dwarf show up with novice crutch-walking before.
Ditto.

I had a high master crutch walker.
...How did that dwarf regain his leg?

He was RPing.

an upright *adamantine two-handed sword* sounds perfect for his room. Have him get it himself, if you have one.

syntax EDIT.

My first migrant in this version was a high master bowyer.

Needless to say, I'm keeping the save with me at all times until the military stuff is fixed.

If you put your pokemon in the 21st or something slot in the storage, save your game and turn it off while it's saving, when you load there will be two of that pokemon.  That one turned out to be true.

This was fun. Except it sould be any slot. And the timing was a bitch.

There's a similar glitch in Emerald version which abuses a "partial save" that doesn't save the status of your PC boxes. You can clone 5 pokemon and a crapload of items at a time.

You know, if you let them "cool off" a bit before killing them, there won't be !!Fire Imp fat!! in your butcher's workshop.

They have [HOMEOTHERM:some-reasonable-number-that-my-lazy-self-forgot]. It's less than 10100. The magma heats them up to a point where their fat (the only non-magma-safe part of them) is generated upon butchering at a temperature where it instantly ignites.

Cage them and give them a year in your animal stockpile and everything will be 8)

I did this too. The catch was that my miner was a legendary mason, and I breached at the top of the helltube, from a diagonal. b-C-w.

Expedition leader: Proficient carpenter, novice appraiser/judge of intent/consoler/pacifier/leader. This guy gets an axe once I forge one, and starts deforesting.
Doctor: Adequate [all medical skills except crutch walking] - He gets my pick, once I forge it.
Farmer: Proficient grower/brewer.
Crafter: Proficient stonecrafter/gem setter. Gems are valuable. It's nice to start with someone who can put them to good use.
Builder: Proficient mason/mechanic.
Metalsmith: Proficient weaponsmith/armorsmith.
Metalsmith 2: Proficient blacksmith/metalcrafter. See note on gems; replace "gems" with "platinum bars."

30 of each booze
ANVIL:YES
two pieces of (insert pretty-colored stone here) to build some stuff like my forge, then to serve as my main entrance doors.
1 piece of (native copper/malachite)
1 piece of cassiterite
30 cave lobster
5 of each underground seed (EXCEPT rock nuts and dimple cup spawn)
All the rest of the points go towards bituminous coal; fuel's important!

Tear down wagon

You are right. Looking at the raws, I noticed its high density. It seems platinum does equally well in warhammers, having a similarly high density.

Their densities are nowhere near similar. It's like comparing adamantine to steel.
