Idea #1: Learn to spell the word "lair"

The way I see it you have three options:
1)use the dragon to kill the necroes & zombies
2)use the necroes to kill (and raise) the dragon, or
3)use them both on goblins. To wit: use a drawbridge, maybe, to close the entrance to your fortress but open a new one that allows them to get to the zombies. The goblins will attack the zombies with same ferocity as they would your dudes, and their corpses will add to the slaughter. Hold the dragon in reserve in case of either a)clown shenanigans, or b)the necroes get out.

Thing is, once you unleash the dragon on the necroes, the only way to take care of the dragon is to unleash the circus on the dragon... reminds me of the whole "release snakes to catch the mice, release mongooses to catch the snakes, etc. etc. etc. lions" story.

Also, I wouldn't worry too much about spelling. As long as you get the jist akros, itz know bhig deel.

I am disppoint.  Here I was hoping he had hit a z-level where he was mining out dragons.

Which gives me a mod idea....

I don't understand, though that is about right with anything DF related.
I just hope he dies the same death that all dwarfs deserve: liver disease.

ive gotten in the habit of replacing my chief medical dwarf as soon as he gains any notable skill in diagnosis.
It's really funny watching them do unnecessary surgery because of a wrong diagnosis.
the conditions were bad enough to turn a dwarf who didn't care about anything mad, that's pretty hardcore.
