Well that's odd, since all of my animals larger than a dog are outside in a group of pastures. Are there any other reasons why animals might attack one another?they'll attack each other if they stand on the same square too long. Are you sure your pastures don't overlap, or that there's more than a single animal in them?
oh, I have, and it was glorious. it's just that for some reason, I always seem to slip the elves a wood item sooner or later. So I preemptively trade them lots of *rope reed fiber rope*, hoping they'll hang themselves from their precious trees on it. Except it doesn't always work either,so I have to resort to steal the stuff I need.It seems you have yet to experience the joy that is buying the entire caravan with nothing but Dwarf farmed xXclothXx items.Well, my simple suggestion is- never doubt the use of the "repeat task" order for workshops. Just set your bone carver to repeat making bone bolts, and you'll never worry about ammunition again. Set 1 clothier workshop to repeat make tunic, shoes, pants, and whatever else, and again, no problems there... as long as you have enough cloth. But that's a farming thing, and takes minimal effort to do.Farming? That's a "looting elves caravan" thing, rather. They bring cloth bins by the dozen, 'specially if you don't have any. Now, if you're feeling charitable, you might even let them leave with twice the value of the items you've bought (at least). If you don't, or accidentally slip 'em some wood, well who cares? Seize it all!
Whimsicle: What's left of child's dreams after said child is brought to a terrifying glacier, and then said child's dreams(and the child itself) are utterly crushed. By a blizzard man.zombie blizzard men. Who'll tear the boy apart and have its body parts be raised to add to their growing army.

If you abandon a fortress because things are going wrong, you're doing it wrong! As long as one dwarf still lives, there is !!FUN!!fixed for you
Yes, Boatmurdered was abandoned too soon!
But isn't this thread about adventurers in fortress mode? Unfortunatly, dwarf mode doesn't quite allow that level of micromanagingQuite true, but weren't you talking about adventurer necromancers? As in, controlled by the player?Necromancer adventurers will spontaneously raise the dead, who will be friendly to them and eat the other dwarves. Sadly they suffer from no booze slowness.Wrong; they only raise the dead when they want to.
Which is everytime they see a body part or corpse in my experience. While this can be very useful in army training, they need to be kept away from corpses, refuse piles and workshops with body parts.
which is a shame, I'd love to order Urist McUseless to light on fire those wooden walls he oh-so-casually got locked inside
Sounds like how I imagine a day goes in the Umbrella labs when they have an outbreak.oh so true...
Only with more fire and magma.
