Okay, probably my last update for a while.
I redorfed Tryrar as the marksdorf with the most kills, again.
Migrants arrived, right into the undead siege. They can't get in. I have no intention of letting the bridge down, either. One of them is an adequate axedwarf and a talented marksdwarf. He fired a few bolts off, then stripped down and killed some undead with his bare hands and nothing more than some animal blood covering his body. Soon, however, he was overwhelmed by the hordes. He is now dead, though he took out about 10 of their number. He has died valiantly, and will hopefully be commemorated if we can get his body back.
There are now less than two pages of undead. I think they might be fleeing!
Another good military dwarf fell victim to a vampire. They seem to choose our useful dwarves. Can't they just go after the soap makers and fish cleaners?
Hey, I found out how Dariush died. He was killed by the vampire "slowpokez."
A stroke of luck, namely an ostrich woman, has brought quite a few within the reach of our marksdwarves, who are accordingly slaughtering them.
Vampires strike again, this time against a suturer. It's time to take action. I will lower the bridge, send the vampires out, keep the normal melee squad behind the bridge to defend, then raise the bridge again.
The vampires are outside. A foolhardy marksdwarf went along with them, and has been killed.
I have sent the vampires to attack the undead. They've killed a decent amount, maybe 10, but 1 out of 3 has died. The others are Xieg and Slowpokez. Zieg is equipped with an adamantine short sword, and Slowpokez has an adamantine battle axe.
Xieg is dead. Now Slowpokez is dead too. Fortunately, this has killed a bunch of undead and has gotten rid of 3 vampires! They were expendable.
Hatch Cover is dead of dehydration. So much death. Population: 47
Twangykid, our resident Mayor marksdwarf vampire is stricken by melancholy. I have also arranged for all the vampire children to be dumped outside. I intend to use the natural resources readily available to us to get rid of our vampire problem.
It is in a place where it can get in. I shall attack it with the military.
Okay, I killed it, with no injuries for the military.
This one can't reach us, I think.
A dwarven caravan has come, but the wagons bypassed our site.
Looking around at all the body parts strewn around our site, I reflect upon the fact that we are screwed if another necromancer shows up.
Allright, I have to wrap up for now. It'll be a while before my next update.
