A truly fitting end to Hellcannon.

I'd like to call dibs on one of the starting seven for the next foray into madness, if that's alright.  If they're going to a Haunted Biome, it'd be rather strange that the carpenter was seen near one of the wagon's axles with his saw during the night during the journey to somewhere pleasant...

I think I'll pass on being one of the starting seven - the chances of horrible, horrible death are a tiny bit high - but I'd definitely like a turn in the next fort.

The miasma caused Sethrist to go miserable and throw a tantrum. During the tantrum he mauled a dog to near-death and that caused his mood to go all the way up to content. Apparently, beating the crap out of dogs is the best way to achieve happiness.

holy shit... I was the last dwarf alive, ME, this feels like some great accomplishment, even if I was only alive a few seconds longer... That seems more like an actual victory for this fort

Good news everyone, we have a caged zombie dwarf.

Knowing the Battlefailed saga, he's probably going to get elected mayor at some point.

KAR WHY DIDN'T YOU RESPAWN

Oh well. Being the ninth one standing and also being the last noble of Hellcannon is respectable enough for me. Especially when another guy of the "Presidential Crew" (Kar, a medic, the captain of the guard, an armorer, and a farmer? I don't remember if the farmer actually was there.) managed to end up third and explode a demon with the power of FIST! So when is the fourth edition popping up? Or are we going to dare a reclaim?

How many incarnations of El Presidente was that? Also, fighting FB's in magma? FUCK YEAH! Disregard that I didn't kill my opponent, though.

Oh, and IT is waiting for Hellcannon's power to grow before IT kills the fort? ELF SACRIFICES FOR THE ELDRITCH ABOMINATION!

Anyway Eric is leading the next fort, since he volunteered. Now that this one is dead, I'll go back and finish up the update links.

Aww, it died.  We had a good run, though.

I'd like to request one of the starting seven, with some medical skills.  I want to be the CMD again, because...  Well, I'm not really sure why.

Yeah, I wanted that bit about the fort still standing but still taking lives to fit in, but I also wanted to put in my idea for the reset.
I justified it by have the Foul One hold back the reset until a little extra life energy was collected. Why it is doing that is up for interpretation.

Bravo indeed. A fittingly epic end to a phenomenally epic fortress.

Glad to know I did a good job relating to everyone the craziness of what was going on. I personally found the cats involvement in a lot of the disasters after Andreus's death to be hilarious. I heard of catplosions killing forts through FPS, but this was ridiculous. I was sort of hoping Ledi would have been the last dwarf. Just because Ledi probably would have gone berserk with no one to "goto meeting" with. The crazy cat child going berserk could have only been hilarious no matter what happened.

KAR WHY DIDN'T YOU RESPAWN

Oh well. Being the ninth one standing and also being the last noble of Hellcannon is respectable enough for me. Especially when another guy of the "Presidential Crew" (Kar, a medic, the captain of the guard, an armorer, and a farmer? I don't remember if the farmer actually was there.) managed to end up third and explode a demon with the power of FIST! So when is the fourth edition popping up? Or are we going to dare a reclaim?

Yeah, I didn't intend Kar to die there. In fact, I pretty much summed up my real reaction in my post when I realized he was in the smoke fighting.

As for exploding the demon, I was actually surprised by that. I didn't know that demons made of fire would explode when killed. It even left behind some burning remains called "Flame Phantom's Fire". At first when it exploded, I thought it used one of the gas-type attacks. But when the smoke quickly cleared the demon was no where to be seen.

The weird part is that Halbezbin's legend entry says he died by skeletal ox. But I am certain he died from fire related injuries.

That said fire killed us, but it wasn't very effective. I was surprised at how long it took for most creatures to die by fire. If it wasn't for that fact, the fort would have ended really fast once the demons made their way up.

An interesting end to an incredibly interesting chapter of the best chain of Succession Forts to ever exist. I'd like to be part of the starting seven of Battlefailed 4, if at all possible. I also wouldn't mind a turn on the new fort.

I volunteer to start the new thread as soon as Eric has the new world. Also want a starting seven member.

Who will get the first turn, EmeraldWind? MagmaMcFry, who was the next in line? Will the turn list carry over or will we have a new one?


Also, nice ending.

My assumption is that Eric will get the first turn, since he's starting it. My personal opinion is that carrying the list over is probably not a great idea, since there are as many people on it as took turns in the whole of Hellcannon.

Well I didn't intend to take the first turn, I was just setting up the bombworld.

It's coming along nicely. No new creatures added, but that's because nobody seems to take anyone elses' suggestions seriously.

So the demons finally figured out the pathing...

I'd like a turn in the next game, and if I'm not too late to claim one of the starting seven...?

Bravo!  A fitting end for such a glorious hodgepodge of rule and fail.

I too would like to be dorfed in the next fort, please, although it needn't be as one of the starting seven; coming in as a migrant would be fine.

Silverlock -- "Innocent Bystander" -- Brewer or, really, anything.  I'm not picky.


Thanks,
