This is a really boner-killing piss off and makes me orgasmically joyful at the same time. A zombie kills a person, who then becomes a zombie who kills the next person and so on and so on. It's a fuckin' pain on embark (lost 5 teams that way; Damn zombie weaselpeople), but is awesome when a goblin ambush ended up fighting themselves after one lucky shot from a marksdwarf. Think Dead Space, including all the fun times with severed limbs.

Should be interesting to see what clever zombie quarantine efforts people come up with.

ZOMBIE MOAT.

The main problem with that is getting the corpses to keep dead long enough for you to drop them there.

Kill all creatures on a retractable bridge which is over the moat. Retract bridge. Profit.

Actually, I'm envisioning a zombie pit to drop my captured enemies into. Heh heh heh...

I'm just dumping all my dwarf corpses down a walled-off 2z-deep pit so they can't get out. They'll get incinerated once I get down to magma level.

EDIT: Also, I find it somewhat odd that my metalworker is still listed as 'missing' despite his zombie being listed as 'deceased'.

I butchered a horse in a sinister area. Next thing I saw was my dwarves being interrupted by crawling horse hair. Hilarity ensued.
It was only mildly annoying, but slightly later the horse skin also went undead and killed everyone.

I wonder, are there ghosts from dead dwarves, even though they are zombies?

I belive Toady said that it is possible to get both ghosts and zombies out of the same dwarf.

I probably missed the note on this somewhere, but does anything that dies in a sinister area reanimate?

[i2amroy]

Pretty much, yeah.

[Teneb]

Any evil area, actually. So as long as it is a biome that is classified as Sinister (low savagery), Haunted (medium savagery) or Sinister (high savagery) it might rise up.

There's a good reason why the dwarves in evil areas are vegetarians.

Cool site, a brook dividing 2 mountain biomes (one is normal and the other is an evil mountain) with a grassland patch arround the river forming a valley. First 30 seconds : My wagoon spawned in the evil side, an evil sludge started falling and contamined everybody (Fever), one weasel body is killed (Again ) by my dogs but one is bitten and get insta blistering on all body parts, after that a zombie eagle starts killing people (5)
And the situations ends with my expedition miner being chased by his friend and the miner who was away digging tunnels unaware  of the whole carnage.
