Automated anti cave creature defense?
Trap filled tunnel.
Automated anti FB defense?
Trap filled tunnel with tame GCS.
Webbed FBs do trigger traps and pressure plates.
Once you captured/shreddered the FB you also have some slik for more socks.
However, you need some GCS for that.
I didn't used this technic against FBs, but against the clown car, and it was successful.
Only three demons survived.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: ore cluster
« on: October 19, 2010, 11:20:53 am »3 Whole zlevels are magnetite? As in you mined it out edge to edge and the "layer" is actually magnetite?Well, I went "what the heck how bad can it mess thing up" and was running three copies of DF. (quad-core CPU being put to proper use).
That's pretty crazy. Clusters pretty much can't work like that, as far as I know. Have you been messing with the raws lately?
Yes, three entire layers of magnetite. nothing else.
then a few layers of magnetite/SMR.
WHERE THE HELL IS MY COTTON CANDY.
That quite sounds like duplicated layer/stone raws.
I played around with that and ended up on a cotton candy layer.
Was quite nice until the very first goblin ambush made me abadon it :<

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: I could have SWORN my embark site was labeled "Freezing" when I came here.
« on: October 15, 2010, 03:55:23 pm »
So in short, you tried making a fort out of ice, and that melted, so you made a fortress under the river or something, and the water froze again and youre stuck?
Is that right?

Beat that.
It also contains 36 images of itself.
And more then 10 from some random deity.
I sure love burrows and raw duplication

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: New embark, fits my cri- OH WH- the F**K was THAT?
« on: October 07, 2010, 04:47:26 pm »Same thing happened to me after genning a world in .16! Only thing I changed was moving site cap from 1500 to 1000.
First embark was sort of normal, it had about 25 layers, only 1 cavern (first time) and no adamantine. The entire top right corner of the map was all rock down to the lowest z level as well. I abandoned and embarked at another location and ended up in an area with glowing pits and slade for like, 50 z levels in both directions. No trees.Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Yeah, modern dwarves go straight to hell.
To colonize it of course.

I had a cult praising BACON.
At first I thought they wanted me to buy their bacon.
But now I know better.
"before every meal consider bacon"

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Tame sapient babies are doomed in .13--bug or feature?
« on: September 19, 2010, 06:01:23 am »You could also make it so babies don't require food or water, or take a day to turn into a child.
Thats not possible for now.
The least time it can take for a creature to bcome adult is a year.
Sorry, no days in it or something.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: Heavily wounded kobold thieves no longer trap immune?
« on: September 09, 2010, 04:42:25 pm »Didnt web creatures also get trapped no matter what?
Unconcious and webbed will make the creature trigger the trap.
Even if it has [TRAPAVOID].
I have heard dragon fire does the same, but I haven't seen it yet.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Whats the best civilization symbol you ever had?
« on: September 06, 2010, 03:19:24 am »
The topic says it all:
What was the best/strangest/dwarfiest symbol one of your dwarf civs had?
My newest civ has dwarves as its symbol, kinda fitting...

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: the 'relatively simple/dependable FB/Titan capture plans' thread
« on: September 01, 2010, 02:05:06 am »I remember someone somewhere once mentioned that if you get a demon webbed by a GCS, you can capture it in a cage trap. Perhaps that is worth trying?
Yes, that works.
I tested that with tamed war giant cave spiders (modded to get faster access to them) and had some Fun with clowns.
With 20 WGCS, 10 of the 40 clowns ended CAGED, and 4 survived after all the WGCS died of poisoned blood.
