Random idea: gem men siegers that drop gems! Train the jewelers and soldiers at the same time!

Is there a minimum population to get the tier 4 civs in basic mode? I'm at 10mil fortress wealth but capped to 120 pop and haven't yet seen them. They were shown as neighboring in the embark screen.

The minimum population for the last tier is 140, although in theory enough trading should cause them to come.

aww ok :) do you have any stronger civs planned? or any that breed REALLY fast?

You can take a look at the challenge mode civs, and add more of the bonus civs if you want more enemies. However, bear in mind that the limit for a single siege is about eighty civ members, a similar number of mounts, and possibly a couple of 16-man auxiliary beast squads, no matter how populous the source civ.

is that 80 civ members for each civilization; as in 80 strangers and 80 thunder giants? or just 80 overall?

and I've added the bonus and challenge, they are great, i find thunder giants to be the best though (never faced fiend spiders though)

80 per. That's how, by cunning duplication of the elven civ, I ended up with 500 elves and their allies attacking me at once.

What I meant to say was that if you duplicate the ferric elf civ, this is indeed possible. I can release an edition of Fortress Defense like this, actually, it's pretty trivial.

I was thinking, is it possible / plausable to make the various Beak Wolf enemies tameable if captured?  I just happened to have captured a half dozen and was thinking "Man.. these would make great guard dogs".  Rather than my usual butchering them for tasties. 

And if its not plausable to do so, how would I go about modding it into my own game? I'm guessing its some kind of [TAMEABLE] tag somewhere.. just not sure where.

You'd add [PET] and [TRAINABLE] to their creature entry, but since they're invaders even after taming them they'll still be treated as hostile by your dwarves (though the UI will disagree) and so the military will kill them and civilians will run away.
On the plus side, it's a useful way to pacify prisoners.

They should be compatible, but I haven't run any tests, personally.

One or two civs that are just huge numbers of (intelligent) small creatures would be cool, especially if small (but still dangerous) enough to be sent flying.
