Now my slaves can have their own slaves in addition to their robot slaves.
All I need now are torture tools, spiked metal armor and pool cues.
Edit: Oh dear, I had one of the worst starts of all time for my new fort.
Embarked on an area with a 3z level aquifier covering the whole embark zone practically just one z level bellow ground, meaning that there is no easy way to breach it.
On top of this my wagon found itself right next to a whole pack of radrats and just by the edge of the map was a pack of 4 black radscorpions looming about.
I drafted a quick makeshift milita with the silver security batons I brought with me and chased the radrats down, the commotion accidentally attracted the radscorpions, which charged straight at my pack of robots and scattered milita, using the chaos and thick carpace to kill almost all of my chicken, 7 sprite bots, 3 ponies and 1 turret before dying or fleeing.
As soon as this was over a pack of feral dogs came in and began interrupting labors left and right, and that's when I just cut my losses and abandoned fort, knowing damn well that it's impossible to get anything done with 4 unhappy ponies and when everything is still above ground waiting to be hauled underground while everything tries to eat you.
HO WELL
