Dwarf CSI is good. Really good!
« on: March 20, 2012, 02:01:46 pm »
Lost an animal trainer a few minutes ago to dehydration, I forgot I sent him down into the kennel to train war dogs.  Never levered him out.  Doh!  What shocks me is he was missing for two weeks in the middle of a pack of war dogs and from his remains the Captain of the Guard determined dehydration!  Amazing.  Wouldn't that body have been gnawed upon, and then torn to pieces in a dog kennel?   Those were either some really obediant dogs, or I have a short bearded Sherlock Holmes in this burrow.  Knutor

While adding magma to anything will make it dwarfy, adding the word "magma" to your post does not necessarily make it funny.

I'm gonna setup a crime lab for my Captain of the Guard.  Not quite sure what to put into it, but he definately merits his own personal cubical after that fine deduction.

A personal chemistry lab (still), dissection and forensics equipment (butchery) and ballistics testing area (bowyer/archery targets).  Plus a desk and chair and lots and lots of (filing) cabinets.  :)

- Weapon racks.
- One of each type of weapon.
- Terrariums for various insects and vermin (Urist McGrissom).
- Bins filled with bolts made out of every possible material.
- One crossbow. Your military standard-issue. Whatever that is.
- You might also have to mod in something to craft dummy targets, or statues made out of cloth, leather or wool.
- Skull collection. One of each type of skull. Try not to go all Predator on this.
- An interrogation room. Build a room and build a glass wall in the middle of it. Pretend it's one-way glass, the other side is mirrored.

Ha!  Those are some wonderful ideas to think about.  I roflcoptered about the skull collection and going overboard like Predator.  To do that, would definately be dwarfy, indubidibly. Err, Elemenatary. 

I just gotta find Cupid, equip him with an Adamantium Crossbow and shoot my Hammerer in the toosh.  To plant the seeds of love between my Captain of the Guard and my Hammerer.  Sometimes a gore filled thriller, or Dwarf filled Fortress, needs a little steamy Romance. Like in Bones(TV miniseries).  Sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G, Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan and Special Agent Seeley Booth.  Captain and Hammerer. 

Blade has a labrat sidekick.  No love there, tho.
007 has Q.  No love here, either.
