To this day the elven warrior castes hunt the enemies of nature for the purpouse of bringing back slain intelligent beings for consumption by their leaders and generals, for the good of nature and the survival of elvenkind.

And that is the story of how napalm was invented.

Fortunately it left without any damage but then a "silly" tantrum spiral and some troglodytes came in and
 I digged a little hole in my close to fortress volcano with beautiful redish orange liquid inside.
After most of them died migrants came so I put the children in a burrow near the beautiful orange liquid and made my migrant dwarves smooth and engrave the volcano for more migrants but I left 1 space for a fortifaction in the smooth rock that you
could say "killed" another dwarf.

Sounds fun to me.
If anyone manages to promote a zombified creature to management/upper military, post it FOR SCIENCE!!!

It turned out that the goblin thief was from a necromancer civ instead of a goblin one.

Funky.

And now, It's time to play "Bug or Feature"! Today, we will discuss the implications of thieves made into zombies.  Noobnubcakes, you go first. Is it a bug, or a feature?

a kobold can die as any other creature, and as any other creature they can be brought back as a zombie, and as with any other zombie they keep the original creature abilities, it works within the system set out, I would say it's a feature, now if it was intended as a feature or not... =D


Just to clarify, the (kobold) zombie thief came ambushing like a normal kobold thief until it was revealed?

What I'm wondering is what happens in worldgen when an animated gobbo thief steals a baby. What happens? Does he bring it to the tower? To his original dark fortress? So many questions!

I remember that kobolds prefer evil biomes? So there should be a big chance to have zombie kobolds if there are kobolds in the world?

Time to lock this, I used genesis mod so it doesn't apply here.
