... Now I'm having a little bit of trouble using my purging chamber for the unwanted dwarves.

Humans are different to dwarven-migrant fodder. Humans, unlike dwarfs, have emotions I don't not care about. And that's why magma misting them is fine.

E: Also, I've seen that movie. Makes me wonder just how different human and dwarven children really are; they both seem to be stupid as all hell. And blunder into mistakes. They don't have kick-ass child beards though.

Remember Urist being struken down after colliding with an obstacle.

Remember all that dwarven blood spraying on the walls.

Remember the Dwarves on the bottom cushioning the dwarves tha fall on top of them.

Did I fix it? If not, try reading it all again with elves.

It's treated as completely normal because this is Dwarf Fortress.  There's absolutely nothing wrong with surrounding yourself with a wall of flames, only to later realize that you're surrounded by a wall of flames.
There's nothing that can't be solved by hurling fifteen roc birds at it.

Just arm them and send them to destroy the evil empire(elves), then use their bones for new bolts.
Ah the glory of the Dwarven army.

I guess it was only a matter of time before a DF Auschwitz made its way onto the forums. What do you do? Gas them with miasma until they go berserk?

Uhm, guys? They're digital bits of information. About, oh, a few quadrillion times less complex than a bacterium. Much less a human.

"Kill off all migrants" is already a challenge... Primarily a challenge in ghost management.

And, anyway, however much we kill off pixel dwarves, I kind of doubt we'd be willing to support it in real life. Knowing what we do about history, I'm willing to bet that more than a few of us would happily die to prevent the Holocaust from happening again.

Lemme reiterate: Dwarves Are Not Sentient. Okay? Right then. No guilt necessary.

...Anyway, FB syndromes are much deadlier than miasma.

Well, the drowing chamber is starting to get dirty... maybe I Should take a break to clean it out. That will give me a bit of recoup time while I made the Condemned (That's what I made their labor) go pick up refuse outside.


My fort is like a labor camp.


Good lord, I love this game, but it's turning me into a sociopath (Well, more of one than I already was)

I use water chambers. Drop dorf in chamber, pump in water.

I seem to be only person who plays this game ethically  :P

Of course, I get to watch my dwarfs all die horribly when I fail and I fail often.

So it really was a shower.

And don't worry masked miner I do too.   ...Primarily because I like having a horde of idlers able to clear goblin trash in the space of a minute.

You fail because you can't sacrifice the few for the good of the many.

The weak and stupid are not wanted. They are undesirable and must be destroyed for the good of a master dwarven race.

I have 80 dwarves, of which only half actually do anything useful, and they still all manage to keep busy. Migrants are mainly useful for hauling stone from big mining expeditions, so I wouldn't kill them in fun ways. Yet.
