I can use trees to climb over streams and rivers now!  Swimming is for chumps.

You can also get a running start and jump over them like a pro.

I hope there will eventually be cities with multilevel buildings so I can scale them and jump from rooftop to rooftop with stolen goods.

  And then someone will create a Assassins Creed Mod for Adventure Mode. Now I have something to look forward to! :P

  My favorite feature would be the roving bands of bandits, adds a bit of misfortune and hilarity when a DF Veteran's Fortress is put down by a band of Bandits... hehe.

Edit: NOT talking about myself. There are a few bits of "creative language" around the internet because of this.

Just found a new favorite feature:  You can give your companions stuff now, which means that archers can be resupplied with arrows and no longer become useless wrestlers when they run out.  At least I think so.  I haven't verified that they *use* the ammo, but they at least put it in their quivers.  Of course, if you give them a sock they put that in their quiver too, so...

I enjoy demanding tribute, I don't know what or if it has any function but I still quite enjoy beating up the lords/ladies to get them to agree to it. c:

when migrants arrive, the jobs screen shows them as new arrivals instead of no job so it's much easier to find them.

my absolute favorite feature is probably the decreased eating/drinking time. dwarves take like a second to drink now and it's making things so much faster. A project that used to take 1 month could now be done in a week simply because dwarves don't spend half that time having drinking contests.
