Enemies in coffins
« on: December 21, 2014, 12:26:05 pm »
I want to surround my fortress with the coffins of my enemies instead of just their sun bleached bones.  It would seam a simple option when selecting a coffin would do it.  As well as the 'allow pets' toggle an 'allow enemies' one would do it.

I haven't posted on this page before I hope I have used the correct edicate.

Buriable enemies?  I guess if you wanted, I wouldn't do it for most.
  Ironically Id do it for animals that killed my dwarves more than sentients.

You can engrave memorials to them, and if you build coffins next to the slab . . . who's to know you didn't bury them?

I've done that for some of them, I find it quite tedious.  I want the axe lord to be able to visit the grave of her notable kills when she is feeling maudlin.  I also want the goblins to have to walk through dozens of their countrygobs neatly laid to rest on their way to attack my fort.  If I am going to bury that many of them it needs to be automatic.

Considering that my expedition leader in my latest fortress literally went to red-arrow levels of stress from just seeing a dead kobold twice, I second this.  Besides, don't worthy opponents deserve a bit of respect?

We just need a special 'War trophies' stockpile for displaying corpses and bodyparts that are especially disturbing to a certain race (may as well fill the elf-pile with wood, bahahaha..) Should just make it so that any coffin placed outdoors becomes a "display case" for the bodies of enemies.. but that might be too dwarfly, going by the pampered niceties we've received in the past couple updates (the three F's! Food, Feelings, and Friends!) ;)
