Attack the imp with my sword.

Most people using danger rooms armor their dwarves first.

Ehh, couldn't find the right opportunity. Also, your spelling is pretty good, apart from that one word.
Thanks.

Challenge idea: make a burrowed fortress in which dwarves stay in their assigned sections, but don't use burrows. Use minecart tracks with strategically-placed gaps instead. More of a logistical challenge than anything, especially when dealing with items that are always put in containers or moving dwarves between sections.
Hm...

I got an interesting challenge from the dworacle.

...yup. First try, too. There goes my holiday break.
Ye gods, what horrors has my post unleashed?
Just an average day in the life of a Dwarf Fortress player.

i menat that if you made it so that wooden weapons did something, and for this i mean training weapons, then danger rooms would hurt.
Whack someone in metal armor with a big stick some time. They might be annoyed, but other than that they'll be fine.
Also consider that this would mean that dwarves with wooden axes could slaughter sieges...

I have never gotten legendary soldiers via normal training though, over a lot longer than 2 years, and I'm pretty sure I know how training works, so please enlighten me on how you accomplish that, socks.
Squads of 2, training all year. After a while they'll spar all the time. Starting with migrants that bring some combat skill, later mixing unexperienced dwarfs in. I also embark with one military dwarf who has some teacher skill. Also it helps alot to let them kill wildlife and prisoners. Depending on how many sieges and ambushes you get, and what kind of animals, live-training is really fast.
Live training is. Sparring? Well...I've tried that. Lots of dwarves in "Individual Combat Drill," not a lot of skill gain.

Well, Lazarus, I don't think this world is Earth. Given the sentient land-eels and goblins and such.

We don't need to baby them. Let them go into the cave, they can handle themselves.

My personal vote for what to do with the Left Stone gift: Pass it on to our son with instructions that he is to use it to impregnate whichever consort of his that he bestows his First Gift upon. This will give the first female troll Hypnotic Gaze, Tattoos, Teleportation Tumours, Camouflaged Body, Springy Legs, Divine Blessing AND possibly another talent that our son passes on himself.
We would have to impregnate his consort, but she wouldn't care
Assuming we can impregnate another troll's consort (probably possible, but you never know), and WOULD do so (imagine your parent having a child with your spouse), it wouldn't grant all those abilities. Better to encourage our son to earn a gift from Nocteclaw himself.

GM Turn:
The Horrible Monster ignores all of you and starts hitting the room's ceiling. Parts start falling down.
