Another Dawn of War quote.

To fill up the space...

On the wall is an engraving of a large human, a small human, and a rhinoceros.  The large human is raising the small human.  The small human is screaming.  The rhinoceros is striking down the small human.

DF General Discussion / Re: How to farm outside?

I've been able to plant pricklies and wild strawberries outside, with no issue.  MAYBE it's because I'm doing it right next to an outdoor river, but not sure how this all works yet.

Appears to do that for all stocks, not just for your food.  So, it's likely that you'll need a bookkeeper before any of that makes sense.

DF General Discussion / Re: Mazes

Mazing is a popular tool used by players of the PC game Stronghold as well.

Due to how the siegers' AI in that game works, if there is a direct route to a castle's keep, then no matter how long, winding, or on fire it is, an attacking force will ditch their siege equipment and just charge en masse.  I've never endured a siege in Dwarf Fortress yet so I don't know how the exact mechanics in that game work, but my imagination is that mazebuilding would be an excellent way to increase archer and trap coverage as well as buy extra time to get troops positioned, new traps set, and civilians away from the action.
