NEW ORDERS!

It had been peaceful lately - at least when it came to the Queen and her Advisor. You doubted you could say the same for the rest of the fort. You started to relax slightly, not bracing yourself each day for the note which meant the Queen had devised another idea which you would have to carry out. For whatever reason, they were giving you a break.

Then the advisor tracked you down.

"The Queen has heard of the battles which have taken place here. She wishes for a way to execute any prisoners which may have been taken in those battles - the grander the better. She has given you discretion in the type of construction, mentioning several different ways other forts had devised - execution towers, drowning rooms, gladiatorial pits..."

He trailed off, seeming to realise how bloodthirsty this demand must make the Queen sound, and possibly wondering where she got all her information from. Then he shrugged and handed over the signed note.

So Ledi's been training the cats into an army of disposable warbeasts?  Why did no-one think of this sooner?!
Hellcannon seemed to be constantly on the verge of death and Levergedon before my turn helped, but ultimately what killed it was Ledi's cat army.

oh Hell , i was Hoping the Order Wasn't to Build some Tall Structures to go "THIS , IS , SPARTA" on Random Captured Goblins , and i am too Half-assed to even Work Around with Cages and Shit to Create Fighting Pits for Them GreenSkinned Goblins with their Heads Too Far up their Asses to see a Prickle Shit

But i am Bothered with Placing Cage Traps on Bridges , and Retract the Bridge to Execute the Whole Lot of them , since it's Pretty Simple and i don't have to Go Running Around like a Moron Searching which Hell way to , i am Restricting myself to the Simple Shit until i Manage around this Hard Interface , Damn , Why the heck does this Challenge be on 0.31.12?

i am not complaining or Ranting , i just Can't Figure out what does what , since Everything is different from 40D

I've been playing along on my own. I updated my post with latest pics. I don't feel like writing in character text right now but maybe I will go back and edit it later.

I already have a sacrifice tower and a drowning chamber. :) I suppose I'll have to come up with something else for the next year.

Just out of curiosity can people who are having problems with trees growing back answer something for me?

1: do you have a King or a Queen for your civilization? (hit c, enter)
2: can you catch any fish in the river or ponds?
3: do vermin spawn on the map? (lungfish, rats, lizards, ect.)

Updated original post for year 6 and the execution challenge. Awfully quick turnaround, but I just couldn't leave it alone while Ledi was offline. I ended up playing half a year before getting the challenge. My tower is built, but I'm going to be adding to it along the way.

You could use it to stage an Unfortunate Accident. I've used it to get rid of some cats and kittens. Although after last time I think I am just going to atom smash them from now on. The drop made a heck of a mess.

That's why I put my tower over the volcano. Into the magma, no fuss, no muss. I've already got too many body parts strewn around

I couldn't wait, I just had to see what happened next. :P  Turns out, not so much; it was a quiet year for my Windcrested. Updated original post.
