[38a] Goblin snatcher/ambush overlay, dead goblins
« on: February 15, 2008, 10:44:00 pm »
So this was weird. I'm not sure what happened, it was over very fast.

Mt announcement log looks like:

Snatcher! Protect the children! x4
An ambush! x2
Snatcher! Protect the children! x3
An ambush!

There are also three goblin spearmen, a goblin maceman, and four goblin bowmen on the map now, and 5 dead goblin master thieves. I'm pretty sure I didn't have any dead gobbo thieves on the deadlist before, and there's definitely none left alive now.

It looks like either:

a) Goblin ambush squads saw the thieves as enemies, or
b) Thieves came in first, and were killed because they were occupying tiles that the ambush squads needed.

Happened way too fast for me to see what happened exactly. Just a lot of announcement spam.

ACtually for now thieves are killed by everyone.

Same thing happened to me here: http://www.bay12games.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=6&t=002865

Don't know why, exactly, but if they're supposed to be allied, some parameters are probably just set incorrectly. For now, I'd just say that nobody likes a green thing dressed like a ninja.
