Goblin prisoner
« on: November 29, 2011, 08:40:07 pm »
Yeah, it's me again. So the last of half a dozen goblin snatchers walked into a cage trap (at which point he was detected. I wanted to release him in the barracks so that my military could get some practice, so I stripped his stuff and ordered him released, but the dwarves just put him in a different cage. How can I release him?

because everyone here is OCD and ADHD, and then complain when their dwarfs act similarly in game.

Look up Mass pitting on the wiki. Or just put the cages in your barracks, make a pasture on the other side of your barracks, and pasture the caged gobbos there.

link cage to a lever, pull lever

this is also how to make kittens of death: put all kittens and cats in a cage in a small room with a presure plate. As the goblin thief triggers it, the cats are all released. In a small room they will fight anyway, and the goblin will fight too, creating an early detection system AND an environmental friendly way to avoid catsplosion

Jam a door with its corpse and let all the goblins in. Hey, nobody said it had to be a weapon against your enemies.
