i just found what i thought was the perfect 4x4 area, volcano in one corner, a cave in another, plenty of metals, fire clay and sand spotted.

i embark, and look around.. the outside of the cave is completely littered with goods, gems, and.. uh..
unit list other: 248, all kobolds
various professions on a lot of them..

what the...?

can i actually play on this spot?

i'm not too optimistic about starting a fortress with an army of kobolds in plain sight...

In the words of the Dwarven King: Jackpot.

It was only a matter of time until the good times (read FUN)  came to your home.

Oh gawd, not this again!

Get a room, you 251! Keep your interspecies biggamy to yourselves!

BLACH!

Why not making it a ZOO?
To watch kobolts in their natural enviroment
build the cavern layers out of glass
And become the number 1 tourist attraction in the world!

Playing DF is like getting into an elevator where you know it will freefall forty stories after it climbs about two.

The Least Dangerous Game.
Until there's 248 of them.

Yeah... 248 kobolds is something to be concerned about.

I agree thoguh with walling them in with you. They'd make an excellent distraction for invaders, and having some decent neighbors is always good.

Unless you want to preserve your precious fps.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

The solution is simple. carve a channel from the volcano to the kobold lair so it exits just inside the entrance, and use a diagonal breach into the cave so that only 1/7 drips throuh at a time, so  we can watch as the magma slowly flows ino the kobold lair, cutting off their escape, and slowly pressing them into the last corner of the cave. ither wait for them to be incinerated, or open the cage filled with rabid badgers/wolverines/other wild hairy deathbeast that preys on kobolds. which you placed earlier.

Bay12 doesn't have moral event horizons, it has goals.

I recently embarked on a camp of 314 friendly kobolds. The save (immediately after embark, DF 34.06) is here: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=6165

They've got a bunch of Bone Doctors, shame I can't outsource my healthcare to them.
