The poor thing, he just wanted some honey. Then got all dirty on it and went to take a bath. See? He even used sponges.

Can I get dorfed too? Make me a swordsdwarf and if possible a miltia captain. And I would like a turn. Turn time is one year right?

I would be careful... Kamatec may seem jovial, but he secretly leads an endless legion of Lawyers.

I hope you can: I may have harvested all the hives on the map. My apologies: I saw honeybee's and just lost my shit.
         
In hindsight I should have protected the hives better, or at least built a backup hive in an underground location. Just inside the entrance ramp would have still allowed for outdoor access while being protected by the external trapdoor.
         
Oh well. Worst case scenario we kill off all the ant colonies and wait for a new honeybee spawn.

I do. I've got two saves at the same time, lucky me. :-[ Mountainbreed is a bit more pressing at the moment, however, as I have my week due tomorrow. Here I have two weeks, which are due on 5th June, so I expect to get here on Friday.

First. Sign me up.
Second Dorf me as the armour/weaponsmith and make him spam stacks of bolts for exploits. Capture a goblin and set up a repeater to open and close doors in front of him then setup dwarfs to shoot metal bolts at him from behind fortifications. The doors should open for long enough to allow dwarfs to target and fire at the goblin. The doors should close right before the bolts hit the goblin. I may be explaining this wrong but I can get the link for the wiki.

You can split stacks in the trade Depot and stuff. No more needing to do that.

Welcome to Shatterfate, Caesar Josephus!
 
Let's avoid deliberately abusing exploits here though. Part of the woodless/stoneless challenge lies in only utilizing resources that are a bit more difficult to obtain. Using exploits to create a magical metal fountain rather defeats the purpose of the challenge.
 
I'll add a 'General Rules' section to the OP so it doesn't look like I'm just pulling rules out of my butt in the future.

What? Me using exploits?  ::) Never in my life...

Also I would like to get dorfed...

Dwarven atom smasher is good, no fortress would be good without one. I assume quantum stockpiles are good. Roadar is good. No infini-metal. Ok none of the mentioned "exploits" are to broken, besides getting infinite adamantium.

If there is an exploit that your feel is to cheaty just say.
