Terrorist fortress. Strike the Infidels!

After seeing this I immediately thought of Dwarf Fortress. That fortress is pretty dwarfy despite the lack of traps.

This makes me want to start a game with the mayor being called "Urist bin Boatmurdered" or something.

The title strikes me as a bit offensive, but it looks like a fun themed fortress.
Now the only question to ask is whether Bin Laden accepts women to Al-Quaida, at that point you'll have a proper challange, seeing as not trading with humans and elves isn't that much of a et back.

If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing.

I remember when Something Awful was a competent humour site. I miss those days.

To get it completely right you'll have to spawn dragons occasionally, to take the place of attack aircraft+napalm.

Taking terrorism to serious is one way to make it win. They Bomb us and we get harsher Laws that, thanks to people who take terrorism to serious, destroy our Freedom. And since it the Goverment fears terrorism (or rather instrumentalizes it) slowly freedom, any kind of freedom, dies.

What do we have left ,if not a short joke, if we lose our Freedom?

^^^ Actually, terrorism is mainly carried out for two reasons: 1) as Guerilla warfare, to make military presence unworkable, and 2) to get a cause spread by the media. Terrorists don't hate freedom, they want to violently disturb the status quo, get their message across, and get people to "convert" to their philosophy. Freedom has little to do with it.

As of yet, the current outbreak of violence against the US is not working at all with the first reason, and, thanks to its decreasing frequency, is starting to fail in the second. The terrorist attacks from Lebanon against Isreal were very effective in both regards.

On topic: We need terrorist strikes against sieges.

Nope if they siege us we are rightfully "Partisans".

Someone needs to make a creature that can explode in gore on command. Add socks that automatically unforbid for the win.
