Hooray! The next release will be the most exciting one since the launch of .31. Non-Sisyphian fistfights are going to be very cool. It'll be cooler once enemies decide to stay down instead of fighting to the death, but you take what you can get.

I'm looking forward to him dealing with the squad interface hang problem - it happens to me just often and randomly enough to be a bit annoying...

Several bugs related to ranged weapons should be up within a few days, but I'll probably want to check a few more things here.

Do you know that feeling when there's a really happy end to a movie, but you don't want to cry, so you just have this stupid grin on your face while you look away from the screen?

nothing is immune to 5000 tons of obsidian falling on their head

Speaking of which, I figured out a buildingdestroyer-proof obsidian cave-in trap. I will not give details, but it shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

I'd imagine it to be a support holding the obsidian from above, but with the support surrounded by walls (requiring a cavity on top of the walls but not on the support) OR instead of walls, surrounded by something destroyerprrof but non-supportive (fortifications are like this, amirite?).

Great, squads of hammerdwarves should be reasonable to use now.
