And everyone just got mindfucked.
Dwarves of Mabdukanam is digging, diggind and digging. But there is no gold, silver, iron; even cooper. We have dug deep. But we found only zinc. My best is only bone. Traders only bring cooper weapons.
İnstead of iron, i have too much gems. İf i could make weapons out of gems, i had dominate the world.

Or you can do as I did: draft all men to the military, set all women to the regular jobs.
Send all the men to the danger room with exactly 1 shield and regular clothes.
Lose two thirds of your men, honor the survivors.
They get pretty badass too. Just had a FB in the third cavern layer (fort is 2 years old, 30 dwarves strong). It escaped somehow. I was pretty sure I had blocked all paths? Anyway, this FB gets on a rampage and is moving quickly up the main exploratory shaft. I got to know about it because I saw an annoucment about one of my craftdwarves getting killed while making glass serrated disks.
So I send my military. They all have their (wooden) shield, their clothes, and nothing else.
Well, the fight was rather short. The FB got brained by a kick very very fast.
I was really surprised.
Are they the ones who did Game of Thrones? I have my doubts.
Personally, I believe that if the Silmarillion were adapted, it would be best done as a miniseries, possibly by someone at the BBC or other Britain-based studios. As a film series, I believe it could be done in no less than 6 or 7 long movies.
I know this is WAAAAAAAAAY off topic, but is it bad that I can see the main dwarves of Spearbreakers (Fischer, Draignean, Splint, Talvi, ect) doing the Caramelldansen?
