Silk farm in a succession game? Oh man, the memories...

Are they the kind of memories where the critters get out and everything dies because three turns down the line nobody remembers how to control it?
The kind of memories where half of the fortress population ended up caged and hauled to the stockpile.

Welcome to Murdermachines. Try the gecko sauce; it's delectable and delightful, a wonderful blend of savory and spicy that makes any dish delicious without being too overwhelming.

A few words on how the things going.
Human merchants came to trade. We didn't open the gate, but voidspawn ambush met them instead. Caravan guards fought back, but fell, and voidspawn killed all the rest. Unfortunately their poison doen't affect humans and horses, I am so disappointed.

I just saw a guy with two broken legs push a minecart with a corpse in it. Yeah.

The closest thing we have to what some call 'allies' gets slaughtered in front of our gates. Unfortunately they don't transform into mindless beasts, trying to kill us.
Today is a sad day.

Are you sure? I thought I've seen lots of weird stuff get enthralled.

Did it actually give some kind of message, or did they just poison but not get a thrall? Because if that's the case they probably killed the thing before the poison kicked in, it's delayed.

There were conbat log records about abyssal taint injected into horse's blood and then they pursued that horse all over the map. I think there passed enough time for the transformation to take effect.

I want to say I saw someone successfully enthrall a yak or something to that effect at one point. I did have a caravan get eaten by voidspawn during my turn and there were a couple of enthrallings that went on.

Thrallification is not species specific.
It is, however, semi-resistible and has a delayed onset.

You have been warned.

It's probably worth mentioning that AnimaRytak is the only ecstatic dwarf in the entire fort.
Quick, check him for rum! The bastard's probably spirited some off to his lair office, to act as pleasant refreshment as his evil scheme unfolds!

It's not like I tried (but wouldn't that be cool?)

I don't care. I have discovered that if you spawn elves this way, cats will chase them down and eat them.

Please use the Dorfinator (link in OP), these requests regularly get lost in the threads...

ExCellEnT!!!

well i can safely say now im a dwarf in deathgae now...definetly looking to see how this plays out! *hopefully the fortress doesnt fall to kolbolds again...otherwise its worthy of a facepalm*

Still if we do fall, lets do it in dorf style...Dig out the candy and unleash the demon hordes from hell into the clutches of the voidspawn! itll be a heck of a ride...or they might actually run from us...because we all know what happened the last time we breached hell...they might even run away from us because we dug on by to say hello!
