trog ambushes trog
« on: August 24, 2006, 10:44:00 pm »

So I was playing in reclaim mode... and I went into a less traveled part of my cave and lost some dwarves so I sealed it off. One of the monsters, a troglodyte, survived and was hanging out down there. Several hours later I get the "a trolodyte has sprung from ambush" message.... and it was next to the first trog. The resident trog proceeded to kick the crap out of the new trog. This sounds like a bug.

Rival Tribes. Monsters are not homogenous baddies.

... can't be long enough for dwarves to mutate/devolve that much surely?

No, no, clearly Trogolodytes have begun to develop civilization! After all, we all know that riots and civil war are the hallmarks of Dwarven culture...

Start a new game, and if you have any previous fortresses one of the options will be reclaim mode.
Obviously this doesn't work if you haven't abandoned or lost any fortresses.

You will definitely want to update.  It was added in a very recent version. ;-)
