Serves me right (I hate elves).
« on: April 14, 2012, 05:11:03 pm »

I lost a fort just now. The elves are the cause of its demise. 'Twas not they that did the killing, oh no. They just left a door open. A door that was the last line of defense against the five-squad goblin siege that would have otherwise been no threat. Because I trusted them enough to not slaughter them on sight. Because I attempted to show them mercy. Never again.

I hereby, with you all as my witnesses, will endeavor to annihilate all of elvenkind from this and all future worlds. There will be no survivors.

And plants. Without them, the elves would hardly have anything to trade in the first place. Gotta kill all the plants, too.

Oooh, that's exactly why I use redundancy in my defenses. Even if a siege somehow gets into the fort the mayor can ,from his sealed room, activate any or all of a series of drawbridge locks separating the stockpile from the quarters from dining hall from the hospital from the trade depot.

Ideally the quarters are a panic room, the mayor has some food and drink in a secret area behind his room for the dwarves to survive outlast.

Kill the dwarves.

Without them the elves would have never come to your fortress.

From now on use only crundles as civilians.

It does serve you right, but I wouldn't be blaming the elf caravan.

Jam a door with its corpse and let all the goblins in. Hey, nobody said it had to be a weapon against your enemies.
