The Strangest Megabeast Yet
« on: January 24, 2013, 07:59:16 pm »

I have an aboveground castle I've been working on for a good long time now. The Fortress Defence II mod is installed with various added civilizations, so I deal with a great number of invasions.

Nothing has really topped this one..

He arrived right in the middle of a Beakwolf siege. I've only had one other megabeast attack this fort, and he was a breeze.
Hopefully this guy is similar. Here we go and wish me luck!

This is surprisingly common.  That poor dwarf is an untransformed werebeast.  It will either run off the map immediately, or transform and stir up throuble THEN run off the map.

Break a leg! Or four.
Maybe some ribs for good measure.

Just a dwarf-form werebeast. Pretty common.

"Strange" would be a titan that is a gigantic pink-scaled serpent with one eye, named Love Creamspew. Yes, that's theoretically possible.

Wow.  I'm just impressed by your commitment to fortification.  Now that is a dwarven wall!
