So, I found some adamantine, and I was digging through it, when...

But if that didn't make my jaw drop, the way the dwarves...

HFS really lives up to the "F", now, and in more ways than one.

I need a bigger army.

unless you're at Nist Akath, you ALWAYS need a bigger army.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

I have a newfound appreciation for the military overhauls.

HFS: Hell fire shit.

Not just fire.  It was ice-fire.  HUGE clouds of it.  Constantly.

Let's shake hands if you want but soon both hands are gone, A-ha-ha!
Cut me down like a tree like the lumber or weeds, well discard who you please like the leaves off a tree. Drag me out of the sea and then teach me to breath. Give me forced health till I wish death on myself. Ah! Ha! Ha!
March on! March on! March on! March on! MARCH ON!

I went and breached HFS immediately because I could. It definitely wasn't hard to find... but maybe I was lucky.

Anyways, my dwarves were destroyed by giant quetzals. Yeah, those pretty birds. Except with 3 eyes. And giant mandibles. And they could breath fire.

I wasn't too impressed.  My cat fended 3 of them off for quite a while due to every attack they did PASSED THROUGH IT.

Yours were probably made out of fire or something. There's a bug where things like fire men, etc, still attempt to attack with their body parts even though it does nothing.

I love that the new demons are randomly generated. When I punched through just to see (also, the fact that the Underworld is actually a WORLD down there, not merely a few rooms with glowing pits), I was attacked by demon pterodactyls, fire ghosts, and blizzard men.

None of them, even the flying ones, attacked me until I built stairs down to the bottom (I'd savescummed even before drilling straight down). Then the lag as a GIGANTIC DEMON HORDE pathed to the surface as one giant union was even more crippling.

Thankfully, I did manage to get a few kills.

I got a horde of ice spirit demons who shot bolts of ice. Apparently, however, the ice bolts were not cold enough to freeze anything. I watched many dwarves (and mountain goats...) take upwards of 30 hits without getting hurt.

I visualize it as ice demons hatefully spewing a refreshing breeze at my dwarves, all the while getting more angry that they aren't dieing from it.

Not to mention to throw all available animals into tiny pits.

Okay, someone's going to have to make a fortress JUST to send a massive army into the underworld. Or dump magma and water into it.

Well, you know how if you take your thumb and forefinger and hold them up to your eye, you can make it look like you're squishing someone's head? It's like that, only for real.

I seriously believe that, for the first time, magma is not the answer (I know, "blasphemy!").  After the first wave of demons are killed--because you just know that place will continue to spawn them--a river needs to be rerouted and endlessly poured into the festering, Molten Core*-reminiscent pit.


*I'm sorry, but it really was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the place.  I blame it on the fact that I was drinking when playing both games.
