But those were some really good ☼Biscuits☼!
« on: July 16, 2009, 08:55:38 pm »
Now that my engraver has finally gotten legendary, I've set him to engrave the bedrooms in the Legendary dormitory wing.  The first one is a exceptionally designed image of a plump helmet - fair enough, it is considered the town's symbol after all.  But the second engraving - was it of the army gloriously slaughtering the first goblin siege?  The bravery of Feb Shorastgikut the hunter who with only his hunting dog at his side slew six ambushing goblins before finally succumbing to an arrow in the chest?  (The dog survived minus one eye).  The cruel deaths of every female kitten that made the perilous journey from the mountainhomes only to wind up impaled upon +menacing bronze spikes+ by their owners?  No, he chose to commemorate this...

You'd think handing out the crossbows to brain damaged dwarfs would be a bad idea but it isn't

Save the catgirls!

I like to slip into bear caves around midnight and gently caress the carnivore inside before leaving a small cut of fresh fish and sneaking out.

Awesome. I had a thought about my housing state recently. I can never expand/change any of them, because I make my dwarves legendary with smoothing before they're even allowed to engrave their first thing. As a result, everything is a masterwork (give or take a few) and so expanding rooms makes the engravers unhappy.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.

Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

You need a Legendary Dining Room. They fix everything.

I loaded up my save in the new version, spent a minute trying to find my archery range before figuring it was the room with Xs down both sides: bins of ammo and archery targets.
Urist McCrossbower cancells practice crossbowery: Unsure of which end of the room to shoot at.

I think you could shrink that three-screen-wide screenshot down a little.

You never know when you might need a berserk dwarf to set loose somewhere.

As with most of their pursuits, dwarves take food serious.

Could've been worse. Could've showed up on an artifact.

I think they were probably frozen sliced ham biscuits, made with artifact-quality frozen ham sliced by Clougherty McUrist
