Dwarves definately know something I dont!
« on: August 29, 2008, 05:18:19 pm »

I was building my above ground castle (made out of andesite blocks) and I look in the announcements and it says "The Dwarves have named a resident cave swallowman *bla bla bla" So I am thinking that the dwarves are now hiding secrets from me! I look in the unit list and no cave swallowmen. WTF dwarves why not share the news of where this guy is at so I can flood their homes with my precious magma?

No they aren't on the list at all.

My guess is there's a swallowman in a hidden chasm underground who killed some other animals.

occasionally, certain creatures migrate onto and off your map... whether that is the case here, I'm not certain

I know that, but since they are cave swallow men they would have to be in a cave and that means that the cave would have to be part on and part off the map. I also checked the unit list as soon as I started getting that message.
