I had one that's not a notification, but did make me smile, about a troll.


"His heart is broken."


Poor troll.  No wonder he's so moody.

That would explain his trolling.

"Become sane"?

You can only become sane by jumping in the magma reserve or beating the milkers until the dogs rip you apart.

A one-tile choke point will force the demonic pace to a trickle, where they will be beset by dwarven steel and holy adamant. Then, I will conquer.

Must...not...

"Ready your breakfast and eat hearty, dwarves!  For tonight, we dine in HELL!"

Lead me not into temptation.  I can find it just fine on my own.

"-Urist, I can't find any silk!
-Go to hell.
-Why do we even have a stockpile here?"

Also, read thread title as "Elves only bring female breasts" and I was very confused

Same here.

have you tried with simple dubble fortifications? That way you can move in water/magma while not allowing demons to move trough.

Duh, they do go tru, the bastards.

I... I'm flabbergasted.

Massive goblin siege, they duke it out with my military and elephants.
Everyone dies but ~= 10 goblins and an elephant that was still inside. The goblins are preventing my surviving civilians from taking the stairs and drinking, scaring them across a channel. "Doomed fortress, tch", I think.

Then the elephant goes around the trap corridor, and charges the gobbos. I prepare to write him off, but then he runs away, splitting the goblins, allowing a tigerman to pass in their midst.
The tigerman brings caravan guards toward the scene.

The goblins chasing the elephant eventually give up; but the bolt-riddled corpses of their comrades await their return.
They starts fighting the guards; then the elephant does a 180, catches them from behind and starts the painful crushing.

That is one badass elephant.

But now she vomits everywhere...

Well, the lessons of the day are that I think killing HFS without cheating might be doable.

If you can kill off the initial flood with cave-ins or the like, then you're only going to be facing a random couple of demons floating in occasionally, which a very good military with plenty of expendables should be capable of handling.

After that, screw obsidian casting, you can pretty much pave HFS.  I don't get any "Too close to edge" warnings when I put up walls underground.  It seems like you can just put floors over the glowing pits, and build walls along the edges outright.

(The roads to Hell may be paved in good intentions (by which we mean adamantine), but the roads IN Hell are paved in marble!)

Okay, I'll try if not bored beforehand.
The pack of war elephants is VERY effective.

Fb comes in, kills dwarves left and right... then an elephant notice it and brainstomps it. This pattern repeated with the last 5 FB (sometimes it takes 2 or 3 kicks, tough). Guess it's the blunt damage.
Still no male Cave Crawler, goblin civ nearby, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a siege.
