((well no. Thats Sarvesh's response. He handles everything, beside military jobs.))
"Sarvesh! Oy Sarvesh!"
"Wot?"
"We dug down and breached the 3rd cavern layer. Right on top of an empty magma pipe. And guess what's under it? A magma pool!"
"Ooh"
"Magma's great. There's nothing magma can't fix. We should make a forge fueled by magma."
"Of course"
"And build a suspended arena"
"Wot?"
"And prepare a doomsday device against invaders"
"Whoa there. Hold on. We haven't even finished building our gate yet. Our only defense is Thunderbeard's squad and a couple cage trap on the surface. Before starting on those grand projects, we need to finish building our main defensive line."
"But.."
"No but! You've seen them! Goblins! Smelly, ugly, nasty, and prone to siege us! Get to it boy!"
---
"Sir?"
"Wot?"
"We found cave spider silk on the first layer."
"Thats it? You disturb me for silk?"
"No sir, you don't understand. We found cave spider silk. Tons of it."
"How much?"
"A hundred at most."
"Oooh... wait. What kind of cave spider?"
"Normal-sized, sir. We verified."

Allright tweaked around. Reduced flame's temp to 110. Thats low. Really really low. Its still frail but it'll freeze and burn your dwarves to death. And everytime its struck it release a burst of blue flames. Unblockable blue flames. Your dwarves will be melting in no time. While freezing. And Bleeding. Oh god. Its glorious.
All Megabeasts had an attack trigger added.
New version's up.

I am going to use this to make ghosts which do nothing but scare your dwarves and die in 1 hit.
Anyway to make fire immaterial? So it doesn't get chopped out?

Version 1.0.5 going up
Changes:
Lavabloom wheat growing on all biomes (DRY/WET) but still in magma.
Behemoth material's value improved.
Quetzcoatls fixed and now roam the world freely... only to die in the first day by cherrypicking.
Underground entities improved. Wild goblin tribes now roam the underdark.
Quetzie is terribly weak. A naked dwarf can punch it to death in a single stroke. If its hit, it dies. Because its internal organ, soul, has only one layer.. bone. And flames. Strenghtening the bones did nothing to help. Considering removing the soul.
Also considering halving the Tarrasque's triggers (So it attacks sooner) and having the Demonic GCS megabeasts.

I entirely support the making of DF remixs!
Retro: Can we have a version of Histories of X & Y with Piano as main instrument?
I vote for Greed as Y.

Gnomes: Summer. Drow: Winter. None found on Grey Dwarves. I'll put them on autumn.
Note to self: Increase Behemoth's material values to match Sasquatch at least. Right now its the lowest.
Edit: Just got confirmation on the material screen: The underground races exists.
Edit2: I think I just found what was wrong on the Quetzie. Duplicate error in bodyparts. Ver 1.1.0 coming up.

"Listen lad. I've got bad news for you. Our scout has..."
"We have a scout?"
"Shut up and listen. Our scout signaled a new uninvited guest. A forgotten beast"
*gasp*
"The good news, its nothing more but a large spider. The bad news, its a big one. Now, us two are the only military we have. So loose your wooden axe and get ready for some action. And beware its poisonous bite!"

"Sir..."
"I know..."
"The beast...

"I couldn't save him"
"He was too headstrong"
"I should been with him"
"You saved us all, Thunderbeard."
"But he was so young!"
"I know..."
"My poor little dog..."
((The battle has been fierce. Axebane charged headfirst and was struck down. Thunderbeard took his sweet time playing with the forge. A dwarven pig and a war dog were struck down. So was our only Mason. And our crypt is ruined. Despite his wounds, Thunderbeard prevailed and saved us all. Beside Axebane.))
((And I just had a set of bronze armor ready too! Should kept him in another squad.))
