so...does water have to be one block below a pump, or can i say...break into a cavern high above water, and expect the water to magically enter the pump?

Yeah, it's a reclaim.

There's also several completely blank spaces that just say "Carve memorial"

Is there a program I could use to permanently remove the ghost?

runesmith, you can kill the ghost via runesmith

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Axes or Swords
« on: May 06, 2011, 01:53:48 am »
I prefer axes, but swords are good enough for many of my fighters - sometimes better. Axedwarves prefer to chop most limbs off before killing common enemies, while Sworddwarves kill faster.

And spears can sever limbs too, quite surprisingly. Many times less often than axes, but still.

i can definately attest to that, i made my speardwarf the captain of the guard once like an idiot, and it stabbed my legendary mason's arm off...

Wax IS edible, tho, so you know.  Ever had Wax-Lip Candy before? And Honeycomb is edible raw.  Good for ya, too.

motherf*ckin wax lips were disgusting! hated that candy...and those little brown squares with the skulls on the wrapper...i cant remember the name right now, but they were SUPER hard and gross...

and on topic...

all the other forms of hats, the spiked, and coif thing...is there an armor difference to the spiky helmets? and can a coif be worn with a cap helmet and hood?

urst mchipster cancels mining, no longer underground >.>

my current plan for sieges, is to make a 'turret" of sorts...right behind my main staircase on my first floor, is a craftsdwarf workshop, pumping out bone arrow's, with fortification walls there, when sieges happen, im gonna have my sole marksdwarf head up there, and lock him in, and tell him to shoot the things standing outside.

dear andymann

check his skills, if he has glassmaking, you need to make him a non magma glass furnace

10
there is a giant sandworm in the visible range of my fort's tunnels (playing genesis) it says that they have twice the meat of elephants >.> im probably gonna try using it as live fire training for my one marksdwarf...

11
...it cant actually tunnel places right, cuz...that'd blow -.-;;

12
...well there goes my plan to use it for live fire training...i still want it, it has twice the meat as an elephant...

13
alrighty then!

i got a possessed armorsmith (yay boo)

he made some steel lamellar armor...is that a shaped piece of armor? can i put it on over my mail shirt?

also, sandworms...are they trap avoid, i saw one, and i wanna capture it...and use it as live training for my archer's

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Re: What's going on in your fort?
« on: May 04, 2011, 12:33:06 am »
A Minotaur came to my fortress while I was gathering wood for charcoal-- one of the few times I let my dwarves out. I hastily draft the lone woodcutter that happened to be extremely close to the beast, hoping for the best but expecting the worst...

The first strike:
Quote
The Woodcutter hacks the Minotaur in the head with his +steel battle axe+ and the severed part sails off in an arc!
...Wait, what? Okay then. Free Minotaur meat for everyone!

In other news, the first Dwarven death in the fortress happened to be the result of an enraged giant badger boar. Punched straight through a hauler's chest, then tore off both his arms and chewed on his head until he bled to death.

i was unaware that you could butcher minotaurs...i'll have to remember that next time i see one
