I'm going to see if I can build a defense that causes enemies to kill themselves via jumping/climbing into hazards. Breaking the pathfinding in general is on the to-do list.

Make sure you embark near a river, so if you are disappointed in your efforts, you can easily create an extremely powerful water cannon to blast huge groups of enemies into unfathomable pits.

Weaponise tears into the deadliest dooms-day weapon known to dwarf-kind

Something that cries cyanide or some gaseous toxin?

I'll learn how to mod and make a bipedal walrus crab creature of death and go on the ultimate rampage and retire somewhere.
train an adventurer and attempt to slay it.
If adventurer is successful the world is saved! (for now)
if adventurer fails the walrus crab creature of death will continue his rampage till either he dies or everyone else does. :P

Scratch what I said before. I'm first going to find out of vampire tears can turn one into a vampire.

Accidentally made over 5000 copper maces once. I have no idea how that happened.

The vampire interaction only adds the turn-into-vampire interaction to RESERVED_BLOOD (I.E whatever material the creature has that its blood is made of), so unless you replace the intelligent races' blood with tears, it won't work.

If this is also the update that will allow us to send out our military dwarves, then I'm going to launch my campaign against the world.

There is currently a minor problem in that the veteran demons fighting in the corpse factory have failed to die in the 2 year battle and have become legendary unkillable gods of war. I may have misjudged this possible outcome.

Then realise that it has been 21+ months since the last release. Holy ****, that’s like the time between commercial game releases, despite everything.

I will then play it, probably try out an adventurer before setting up a a new fortress. After it is done, I will retire the fortress and do more adventuring! Worlds from the next version are going to be much more alive, so that will be a possibility.

If this is also the update that will allow us to send out our military dwarves, then I'm going to launch my campaign against the world.

No, but I hear you can go on a crusade as an adventurer.

Given current events, I've altered my profile pic and I'm sorry it took so long to fix. If you find the old one on any of my accounts elsewhere on the internet, let me know by message (along with the specific site) and I'll fix. Can't link the revised avatar for some reason.

That's fine. The addition of smells and reactions to smells is ripe for having the hippies experience extreme self-loathing from the stench of their BO, since they are so adamant against soap. (Wood ashes, et al.)

That alone could have some very comical impacts on the worldgen spinner. Causing internally non-reconcilable social conflicts with the races in general would be fun to play with on worldgen.
