umm, mayor, y can't you promote?
« on: March 30, 2012, 05:04:14 pm »

well, i have a mayor in a community of 192 dwarves, the lisaon has came once since i had 183, but hasn't returned due to the fact that i was seiged 3 times in 3 month of the season of winter, by like 7 squads of goblins (who is now rotting in my dungen for training), 1st

1. is there a way to relive the attacks, i mean i only have 2 casultys, and all the goblins haven't even got past my 1st wave, but they jsut keep on comeing,

2. what requirements are needed for baron/ king ?

1) Releiving the attacks usually involve in a retreat or if its just an ambush, use (u)nits screen and look under Others and look for any hostile units. Then send all squads after ONE guy and then the other goblins will show up, and then slaughter will ensue (hopefully its giving the salughter, not taking it)

2) If I recall, its 10000 exported wealth, 80 population, and a total accumilated wealth of over 50000, but im not certain about that last number

open/close the bridge a lot and smash the green skins. Trapped hallways, drowning chambers, magma dumping... If you can do it it is worth doing it the dwarf way, complicated!

Jam a door with its corpse and let all the goblins in. Hey, nobody said it had to be a weapon against your enemies.

You do not recall correctly - getting the Baron/Count/Duke requires only 20 population (back in 40d and earlier it was 80/110/140, but Toady reduced them all to 20 for some reason in 0.31.01) plus 10000/20000/30000 exported wealth and 100000/200000/300000 created wealth. Unless something has changed in version 0.34, getting the King still requires 140 population.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.
