Those forges seem somewhat vulnerable to magma critters. You'll probably want at least a wall around them, if you weren't already planning one.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

It's usually best to dig a channel from the magma pool to an area some tiles away for use in smelters and forges.  Magma crabs have the tendency to fire at dwarves that are standing around an open magma pipe.

I build a pump to extract the magma (through a fortification) then through a floodgate that is later sealed to prevent magma men getting at my civilians.  They're very easy to kill, but their fire attack can lay waste to an entire fort.

Might want to insert "[Spoiler]" in the title and replace "adamantine" with "candy." Almost everybody on the forums knows quite a bit about spoiler-prone content in the game, but there are always a few new people who don't.

But congrats! I've never really done that much with adamantine...never had enough security to deal with it in large quantities, and it's such a pain in the butt to manufacture :P

It's only a spoiler if you talk about the consequences. The ore itself is listed under economic stones before you even find it.

Fair enough. Adamantine itself is sort of uncertain ground.
