Snatchers
« on: January 26, 2015, 03:36:37 pm »

Has anyone seen a goblin snatcher since .40.01 dropped?

I have seen tons of kobolds trying to sneak into various forts, but even forts which received regular goblin sieges now never get a single snatcher.  I've had dozens of forts in the past 6 months or so, and not one snatcher (compared with .34, where it was a regular thing).

Anyone?

I'm new to succession forts in general, yes, but do all forts designed by multiple overseers inevitably degenerate into a body-filled labyrinth of chaos and despair like this? Or is this just a Battlefailed thing?

There isn't much middle ground between killed-by-dragon and never-seen-by-dragon.

No, I haven't.  Nor have I heard of somebody confirming they have.
  I can confirm their existence in adventure mode, as well as worldgen.

I also wish to point out that people said theives didn't show up, but I found those in for t mode.  groups of 4 kobolds, even.

I've never seen babysnatchers in any 0.40.xx version, and only had a single goblin ambush. Sieges seem to work more or less, in the most recent versions, as long as you are careful about your embark site's proximity to goblins (preferably at war, rather than just hostile).

Snatchers are a thing of the past. Well, there's a bug that hasn't been fixed or the BABYSNATCHER token isn't working properly.

It's not like tantrum spirals who have been completely killed by the emotion update.
