We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

Weaponization is still weaponization. I'm fine with obsidian casting to make crap, but even divirting hostile into it is weaponizing. No go.

Ooops, didn't spot there was a magma weaponization ban for the fort.  My bad!  :-[

's'all good Aussie. I decied to compress the challenges and such for convienience. Although it seems no-body read the part about the army but the overseers prior to mitch.

@ Mr Frog - Grimdark.

1. get a proper goddamn marksdwarf militia going. that oughta deal with the zombs. Use Ashsaber a random chained up spawn as a practice target.

Yeah, that's part of my plan. I'm pumping bolts as I type, though it is slow because of our lack of metalsmiths. Also, bolts suck against zombies, but we probably won't be getting any more.

Swords, axes, maces, hammers: Specialists.
Pikes, spears: Redshirts
Marksdorf: Support fire

Actually by the way you modded it, no dwarves have appeared with skills in swords, spears or maces. I think you set the civ preferences to ignore them and use hammers, axes and pikes.

So ,sir mitchewawa, any ETA on any updateage? Also, who ordered 600 mugs made?

I played last night, but not enough to write up an update. I'm also playing this morning, and after dinner if need be.

@Splint:

Excuse me? This is Spearbreakers, man. The baseline for it to be considered "grimdark" would be for Mr Frog to OD on drugs, chop Talvieno up into 5+ pieces, feed them to AshSpawn, and then carve the bones into mugs. Anything less is just another lazy Thursday.

Ok, you win. Not quite as grimdark, but still.

@ Mitch actually there were. In my play of the saves, they were in the migrant waves that got slaughtered.

Oh, then I guess they're gone because pikes and axes get given weapons and recruited, swords and maces get given no weapons but are recruited anyway  :P.

Hehe, I can see Fischer now:

Fischer: Here's your armor, now go take down that Spawn!!
Urist McRedshirt: Sir, uh ma'am, um boss?  We don't have any weapons.
Fischer:  :o Oh my... Let me talk to the quartermaster. Fischer, these boys have no weapons. *mocking falsetto* Oh, sorry boss, terribly sorry, here.
*Fischer passes out mugs*
Fischer: Take as many as you need, we got plenty. And don't put your booze in them, that's not what they're for.

On a funny note, mugs will be instituted as melee weapons, along with the mighty MUGHAMMER

In response to the DF limerick: Spearbreakers Haiku!

Set up new fortress
Spawn bites corrupt our dwarfs
Armok help us all

Six overseers gone
Seven doomed Starting Dwarfs
total still sane: Nil

Army full of pikes
Our Enemies are [NO_PAIN]
Splint is a moron

"Powerful pro army"
Primary cause of enemy death?
Fighting each other.

Edit:

Brave army fights our war
Carried home to hospital
Shoulda stayed down

I feel good about myself
