Extra-bonus dwarf-mega points if you use the build wall then tear it down trick to put furniture on the ceiling.Double the bonus if you do this for both sides. Furniture on both the floor and ceiling.
I thinks those are a kind of pants.I always thought they were a type of bra...
But yeah, infinite recursion artifacts, they're e'erywhere.
That would require the revival of 80s hair and not even dwarves are that hardcore.We could make them too high to notice!
Yeah lately my gobbos have been turning up and fighting eachother. They're not attacking the other squads, and they're not being led by demons; they're just immediately turning on themselves. It's bizarre, and quite disappointing. My squads are itching to thrust their cyan shafts into some greenskins.That does not sound right bro. Not at all...
Start drafting females. (You can do that right?)You've got 80-90 and few idlers? Shit, I've got like 60 and about 2/3 are useless. They're just haulers, carpenters, and masons. Quick construction effort, but otherwise pointless slobs.I've had a 220 dwarf fort with <5 idlers constant.
Y'all are small time!
Granted, I'm down to 1-2 FPS, but I have something like 330 dwarves right now. I shouldn't have adopted those tigermen, though. They're breeding like crazy and slowly taking over the place.
Whatever happens, make itironic.dwarfy.
Minotaur arrives on the map. "Oh no worries, if i send some ranged militia then he wont be able to close on them before they kill it."On the bright side, you have one less kitten-factory clogging up your fps...
Send 6 poorly trained marksdwarves with xbows and leather armor out to fight the beast. It goes badly. As soon as he hits the first archer he knocks her to the ground, grabs her quiver and beats her to death with it. He then proceeds to beat the rest of my militia to death with the same leather quiver without any of them leaving a scratch. Thank god for cage traps

Another thing not mentioned (admittedly, I skimmed the thread) was the time it takes to hatch eggs. In another post a couple weeks ago someone created a modded drake creature which laid eggs that had a size of 2100 and he reported that after three years of sitting on those drake eggs they had not yet hatched and in that thread I recall the general consensus was that egg size was proportional to gestation time. Dragon eggs are size 6100. If this relationship is directly proportional you could be looking at a decade (or LONGER) before any eggs ever hatch.That just makes it more epic once he achieves a massive fort that has the sole purpose of breeding dragons and making the room for said dragons
Elf bones are a renewable resource too. And you don't need to separate as you have to do with trees.But elf bones are a lesser insult to elves! We can't be having that now can we?
Only if you want the kids bones to be on the spikes.
The elves are trolling you. Literally.
Kill them!On another hand, is rumored that ambushes come with caravans... but that's just an elf rumor.Kill themso they don't spread more lies.
