I think all you're missing is that that is impossible.


Also, any idea on an embarkable volcanic island? Seed, maybe?

Keep in mind that the dwarves are essentially alcoholic toddlers, and act accordingly. Some toddlers cry when someone makes a sudden movement, let alone when a giant badger runs at them.
I can speak from experience that, while they are naive and careless at times, toddlers are not NEARLY as stupid as dwarves.

There is no such thing as a bad idea, just ideas that wind up killing dwarves at rates that would give OSHA a heart attack.

How do you make flat volcanoes?

I draft almost all of my migrant miners. They tend to come after the embark miner hits legendary, and picks rule.

So really, the more solid the enemy (or the less bleeding out it does) the more useful a pick will be.
Obviously. Rock is hard, isn't it?

It had better not have been intentional...

DF Suggestions / Re: Dwarfsmas

Hm, maybe. Of course, dwarves dedicated to work would ignore it, irresponsible dwarves would go to all festivals whether or not they were for a different religion, and the number of dwarves on holiday at any given time should average out to no more than 5%, ideally closer to 1% or less, or your workforce, but aside from these and other details it's a good idea.
However, I think Toady One was planning this.

It seems that most suggestions are controversial or already planned.

For some unfathomable reason, probably FPS, Toady One has elected not to have any animals give birth to more than three or four children at a time.

I don't know about the rest of you nuts, but I don't consider "covers one, very wide radius" "aimable." Not that a wide radius is a bad thing, of course.

...After rereading the quotes and ignoring the context, I have to agree: Things out of context are funny.
Now let's get back to flinging dwarves at goblins.

Nope, dwarves are finally getting the hang of basic economics. About time, they've had quantum entanglement for years.

Yet Another Update:
I don't think I can do anything with Slade because it's a metal ore AND a stone, which makes it both economic and impossible to smelt, and there's no option in the "Stone" screen to make it non-economic. I might try to edit the game: Slade Bolts would shred everything.
So?
BUILD THE DINING ROOM IN HELL, YE ELF-BRAINED BEARDHEAD!

Hey, I didn't mean for the dark stranglers to all go for the hole in the wall or for you to dodge! Blame your dwarf, he should habe known better! And if you kill my dwarf, who will make furniture for your new dwarf's room or a memorial statue for G? And who will brew the alcohol?

HECK this game is on it's alpha stage and it has more content than nay other game in history!
Ignoring the tyop, I think this is rather unproven. I think most MMORPGs have a chance at that title, if only by the sheer diligance of adding new dungeons and gear for several years.
However, DF might have more FEATURES then any other game in history.
Ignoring the typo, I agree.
Tyop was on purpose, for humor.

I hate it when people don't understand my sense of humor. I thought that since everyone was insane here, my humor would be appreciated.
