DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Vampires with rooms?

« on: August 31, 2012, 09:11:04 am »

Sup forum
Ok, playing for the first time MASTERWORK Dwarf fortress, and encountered a strange thing.
First of all, every migrant goes through basic vampire check by looking into his/her age. So far, zero encounters of vampires. However, after one year without any migrants [You fort did not attract any migrants this season], a dwarf has been found dead drained of blood. Looking through 'U' list of all the dwarves one by one in their thoughts, I found one peculier dwarf. She had thoughts on drinking and she owns her own bedroom. On the other hand, NONE of her family is at the fortress; and she took joy in slaughter lately, eventhough she has no kill list.
So, my question is: Is that a bug, or Masterwork's vampires can claim rooms and have thoughts on drinking.
PS going to lock her in room for a while for observing the thoughts
PPS DwarfTherapist shows different name for that dwarf
PPPS She got hungry while standing in the walled-in room. On the other side, she is a former member of groups such as: 'Gem of terror' , 'Immortal Demon', 'Devil of Twhirling' etc.
Damn I'm discombobulated

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Catching FB, Titans and Clowns without GCS webs

« on: August 27, 2012, 06:12:21 am »

Ok, I got an idea.
You now cage traps will trigger if FB or Clown will fall on it unconscious or immobile; hence, using GCS webs has been the best solution so far? However, I find the thing with capturing and then provoking GCS too much hastle. Here I am proposing a better solution which only involves pressurized water.

oo+oooooo
o^+ . . X # o k

o^+ . . X # o k

. - open space
o - walls
+ - floor
^ - cage traps
X - Floodgates
k - Levers
# - pressurized water

So, when a FB gets in this narrow corridor, drawbridges(not drawn) trap him.
Then on the opposite side, a lever is pulled that opens a certain FloodGate, shooting pressurized water at target, knocking him down on the cage trap.

QUESTION: Will it work? Would someone be willing to test it?

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Dramatic book-like adventure

« on: November 25, 2011, 06:54:01 am »

Hello, forum.
I have started this adventurer, not hoping for much. But he turned out to have such a dramatic adventure, that I am just in need of sharing it with the world.
He survived attack of the boogeymen who made him blind and were ready to shred him to pieces when sunrise dawned. Leaving him blind and bleeding. But not only he stayed alive but also continued his journey. After becoming legendary mace dwarf, he took group of 6 peasants on adventure to the ice-desert, half of which was a terrfying biome. In the end of expediture there were only three humans left. Then they found cave (with only two humans remaining). He spent couple of days there with some epic dramatic fight and scary moment. I thought that I would never find my way up, but when I put him to sleep, it teleported me outside of the CAVE! It was only my adventurer and human (whose left hand was missing), surrounded by skeletons of reptile-men.(On the surface). I do not know how they got there.
So, question:
Do you want me to write the story in details? What do you think, forum?
