Anybody else have a weird issue with Magma Crabs and food stockpiles?
« on: March 12, 2012, 09:14:46 pm »
The hardened Basalt from Magma Crab spit keeps getting placed in my food stockpile, and it's driving me nuts because I can't dump it fast enough and it clutters the place up. How do I kill these things?

I prefer making a water trap above where they come up. Pull lever. Instant crab statue.

Imagine the will it took to create a fortress like this. And what have you elves built? Nothing. You can only loot and break. You're not dwarves!! You're just termites at Versailles.

It's not that I don't suffer, it's that I know the unimportance of suffering, I know that pain is to be fought and thrown aside, not to be accepted as part of one's soul and as a permanent scar across one's view of existence.
