Legends = Goblin Propoganda
« on: December 24, 2015, 04:42:13 pm »

I've just lost my fortress to a massive goblin siege.  And by massive, I mean a two-page olist of enemies in full-screen mode (about 160 goblins, plus about 20 trolls and a similar number of beak dogs).  I killed many, but was eventually over-run.

Checking in Legends mode, I see it described as this:
Quote
Utu Slag, "The Onslaught of Screams"
A: 1 goblin, no losses
D: 20 humans, 1 goblin, 1 elf, 61 dwarves, all lost.
Attacker was victorious.

The description of the battle mentions goblins etc being killed, so why does the summary think the attack force consisted of one lone goblin?

Engraved on the floor is a well-designed image of a kobold and a carp.  The kobold is making a plaintive gesture.  The carp is laughing.

The general of the invading army must have cleverly worded their report in a way that made it sound like they single handedly conquered your fortress.

Marines Goblins don't die. They just go to hell and regroup.

And they get turned into clowns?
