The new engravings in the burial chambers are underwhelming: foundation of the fort, a cheetah, a leopard, some boring masterwork items, dwarves crying over no longer being militia commanders. Come on, I want some dwarves in foetal positions and laughing demons, or vice versa!
Bit old quote... well, you need engraver that has "admires tradition" or something like that in his description to get those engravings.
Yeah, I looked it up later... Some engravings with demons started appearing then, including one depicting the mortal wounding of Radavi by Fatesank.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am happy to announce that the first level of the caverns has been fully reclaimed. Many valuable goods, especially weapons and armour, is again in dwarven hands. Cleaning the area up is almost finished, and an expedition into the depths should follow soon.
In the bad news, a few dwarves rushed to deep even though I forbade everything that could've attracted them. The results were predictable.
She would have probably survived, but a FB appeared and bit her head off.
However, thanks to them I'm sure the remaining demons have utterly broken pathfinding and won't move unless something gets very close. I should be able to hunt them down one group after another. According to my military research, killing demons with moderately skilled dwarves is possible under several conditions:
- the demons must have their legs (and wings, if they have any) broken, preferably from distance,
- the melee dwarves are heavily supported by marksdwarves,
- a large number of dwarves is used so even if the demon starts tearing apart one soldier, the others can attack it,
- and of course the warriors have the best gear available. A limited adamantine supply is probably better used for weapons than armour, since demons are so massive their blunt attacks like kicks won't be stopped by anything except maybe shields or dodging.
I have an idea about what to do with the demon remains, but that will come later.
