execution tower

...OR, if he absorbs that noble spot, you could just let him be sad in his cage and keep your nobles screen slightly less filled :D

I once fought a forgotten beast that spat balls of flaming fire and for some reason or other those burned my leather shields :'(
Lost most of my (poorly trained) military and a few civilian conscripts to that beasty...

yes, a nice chamber on top of a magma garbage dump would make a nice tomb for him... (don't forget to engrave a slab for him)

It says this on both the new version, the 34.11, and 31.25 articles.
Not anymore it doesn't.
TY <3
also, this is why we shouldn't copy-paste EVERYTHING from the older parts of the wiki; the dorf humor sections are probably fine, but verify before you cp the older useful stuff >.>

That is both hilarious and weird xD
Oh, and the correct quarters for any hostiles are either cages or walled off rooms.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Do dwarves run down up/down stairs faster than down ramps?

Like the question said. Is it faster for a dwarf to run down (or up) a bunch of z-levels of up/down stairs than the same z-level distance in ramps?
technically it'd be exactly the same time to move in the Z direction, but as already mentioned the X,Y should matter.

Actually more like 'If you need to move in only the Z direction then no, but if you also need to move far laterally then yes"
of course having something besides a central staircase can be massively confusing, so there is that to consider as well.

As for player races
Quote from: Spocktagon on August 28, 2014, 04:30:25 am
Reskinning the classic dnd races is probably the best way to go.
DF already has dorfs, humans, elves dirty tree huggers, kobolds and animal people (like serpent-folk and cat-folk).
And while halflings may or may not make sense as surface dorfs (when did halflings get good livers?), orcs can definitely just be larger-than-usual goblins and the half-dudes can already happen 'cause humans exist.
Of course not all of those are under-the-earth aligned critters but there are many ways around that (more extensive reskinning, diplomatic/trade missions etc.)
iirc animal folk in DF are cave dwellers, so rat-folk, cat-folk, and serpent-folk should fit right in. Drow or Duergar might make sense. Does anyone want to play a Kobold?

creatures that are members of your fort are trapavoid (incidentally, this can cause problems when you tame something and it becomes wild again...)

You can mark everything forbidden and dumped, and then go into the z menu to simply unforbid all the weapons (caravans will mess up your stocks info though)

miasma doesn't spread diagonally so remember that when you make the dump access points.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Armor and Weapons *Surplus*
« on: July 23, 2014, 03:50:46 pm »
I think only soldiers will store the weapons and armor you assign them in weapon stands and armor racks (and getting them to do so is mutually exclusive with having them wear their equipment always...)
you could always build weapon traps for the weapons though.
