Warning: You are about to play Dwarf Fortress.  All your dwarves will die horribly.

This.  Right here.

It's all the warning you ever need ;)

I'd like warnings. Not because I'd need them, but because I would have when I first started playing! Besides, how could it be annoying if it only happens around once, and a simple press of the enter button would bypass it?

"Warning: You're embarking without clothes. They can't really be used, but now your dwarves lack something to shove into cabinets, and may resort to a bunch of goblin crap."

Clearly, this represents six side-by-side wheelbarrows, as indicated by the right half of the icon.  The left half indicates they are carrying babies with hats in these wheelbarrows.

Presumably, they are lining up to dump them into the baby furnaces.

That's why I mod clothes out.

Also results in a bit more Fun with FB toxins ;)

There's a mod to fix clothes claiming as well? Could I perhaps have a link/guide? :D

EDIT: Oh, I'm an idiot. Out. As in gone. Okay, nevermind. XD

Yeah I just "imagine" the dwarves have clothes.

Why socks would protect you against toxic goo is beyond me in the first place.

Because the goo is sperm and the socks are like condoms.

Dwarf Fortress: The only game where people will hold a logical discussion about why dwarves are putting on clothes.
OK, I have to reload the save.
There was a bit of a problem regarding flashfreezing, a ballistae, and a barrel of dwarven ale. Gonna fix it up.
