Last time I did this, I set 50 cage traps on the entrance corridor.
Goblins came.
But, like, a lot of goblins. That must have been pretty much their whole civ.
They scoffed at the cage traps, and then pretty much steamrolled the fort.
Lost about 150 dwarves out of 170, and all my military but one badass female.

Okay, so I genned a pocket world.
Find site, tab, tab, civs... what's that?
Wagons War.
Legends: the wagons switch general and king every year. They get trounced by dwarves very frequently.
"The defenders were lead by the wagon Ineth Luckstricken".
Oh, so goblins joined on the wagon hating... bandwagon.
Aaaaand all my wagons peasants scuttled on embark. Logs everywhere. Oh well.
And how would you play an undead wagon civ?

« on: November 22, 2010, 04:54:01 pm »NVM, the fort just got wiped out by a goblin ambush.
I guess outfitting your 3 dwarf army completely in adamantine isn't enough to stop them from being killed instantly by a swarm of goblin archers.
You do not understand warfare.
First, cheesemakers.
Then, war animals.
Then, military.

EDIT: ONE OF THEM IS AN ADEQUATE STUDENT.
NOTHING MORE.

This is surprisingly realistic.

Lots of traps near the entrance, turn off refuse hauling, and send several squads in there.

JW:Do you know much about engines?
ME:DWARF FORTRESS.
JW:The answer is magma.
We already had 4-5 "the answer is magma".
We are training it well.

Of course that conjures images of elven forest retreats where the trees have all been carved into elven effigies with enormous...ears.She likes elves for their enormous ears.

« on: November 22, 2010, 06:25:55 am »War elephants suck. I ended up training like 20 of them, and then I unleashed them upon a squad of goblin lashers and the elephants were pretty much decimated without killing a single one.There's your problem.
While I really wish whips and scourges would get a crude fix (size reduced to 'size of the business end, i.e. before there's any slack') until the game can account for the flexibility, lashers are actually a good thing to sic your elephants on: Whips don't really do any better against fleshy targets than goblin-quality edged weapons, but they defeat the finest dwarf-made armour with absurd ease.
Whips != scourges.
Also, when I get the time, I will try modding in war dwarves.
