Wait for Next Version, Use current (.40.24,) or use older release (.34.11?)

Wait for the next release. I want usable mugs damn it!

We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.
- 17 (22.1%)
I'll take .34.11 thanks. I want to know I'll get to kill things for sure.

Nothing but artifact mugs? You, sir, are extremely lucky. I would give kingdoms for such a treasure. As it is, all Spearbreakers has is the following:

23rd Obsidian
...He made us a mug. A MUG. I swear, I'm tired of mugs. I've seen 'em everywhere, I've seen too many. I cain't take the doggone things anymore! They're ugly, disgusting... (no offense to you, Miss Bombzero) Ugh. Anyhow, Feb proudly bragged that his mug was worth 16800 coppers. However, he was outraged when I suggested we sell it... (editor's note: he's a good dwarf) so, worth a lot or not, it's still worthless. Looks like he wanted to be able to drink his enemies, maybe?

This is a gypsum mug. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encrusted with round gypsum cabochons, studded with iron, decorated with holistic spawn bone and encircled with bands of oval gypsum cabochons. This object menaces with spikes of win.


... we need more. :(

Shitty news, guys. My grandma's visiting this weekend, which means that it'll be really noisy and busy around here, which means that my work rate will likely drop from 'slow' to 'glacial'.

Y'all have two choices now:

{A} Wait up to 3 days for things to settle down a bit here

{B} Demand that I hand over the save now

The choice is entirely yours, Spearheads. In this, I am your puppet.

Well, how far along are you? if it's nearly new years in game then you may as well pass it along with an update if you can.

However, it's up to the Overseers.

Wait, it's made of gypsum, of all things?
How does it even... I mean, gypsum in water... Buh... huh...

Certainly you could argue that DF is a lot like The Sims, only... you know... with more vomit and decapitation.
If you launch a wooden mine cart towards the ocean at a sufficient speed, you can have your entire dwarf sail away in an ark.

Honestly, I haven't even started playing again yet :-[ It's been a reasonably busy day today.

I'd be more than happy to resume once things quiet down a bit; I'm just not sure if this thread will survive 3+ days with no updates :(

Well... We have mugs... We have beer.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
We'll have a party while you're gone, maybe?

And yes, it's made of gypsum, Sus... I have a feeling it's far from being unique in that. =P

No idea. But Humans came to my little running of it the third year. The wagons bypassed, but three merchants hell bent on getting to the fort led thier pack animals up with 4 guards. One maceman died, and a 14 spawn attack, PLUS reinforcments and three thieves fell to a swordsman, hammerman and another maceman.

Honestly it seems everything going wrong in the offical game is going the opposite for me. Which is unusal.

Stova didn't die (Tough an unfortunatly timed migrant wave did, resulting in a pair of stolen socks and some pants) I got attacked not by an FB but elk birds who got domesticated, I had an untrained inexpierienced marksdwarf oneshot another elk bird, and humans cleared out a spawn attack for me, after I fed 5 goblin POWs, who were the survivors of a massacre at the hands of Stova, to a captured minotaur. I also have a tree farm underground, and more crap left over from slaughtered caravans than I know what to do with. Can't really melt the human armor cause I don't have magma.

Okay, I've got a solution. My game's set to seasonal autobackup, so I have a backup from the start of autumn. I'll try to chip away at it over the weekend; if y'all start getting sick of waiting, I'll just post the backup and the next guy will continue from there. Sound good?
