A question I want answered
« on: June 01, 2009, 08:50:30 pm »

If you catch a megabeast capable of talking, and lock it in your fortress, then abandon and enter as an adventurer, what will the megabeast say? This question must be answered. FOR SCIENCE!

And you can't eat them, either, sadly. Even though it'd make sieges so much more fun; dwarves lining the walls, drooling and carrying sharp knives and forks, ready for the upcoming meals.

Megabeasts tend to hate everything, so it would probably speak to you only in the universal language, viz. blows to the head.  I'm not sure there's any way to keep a creature on your map after abandoning, anyway.

In that case, we'd check the legends, and see what happens.

A question I want answered: why can't people make descriptive thread topics that actually say something useful? Not just you, Varkarrus, but threads like "Is it common" or "How do I", or "Help". Some people seem to have forgotten that the purpose of a thread is to give you some idea of what the thread is about, beyond just that the poster is asking a question.

Bah. </rant>
