We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

I'll take .34.11 thanks. I want to know I'll get to kill things for sure.

The requirement just seems to be pissing them off. The creature is a cerer, a random critter I got out of Talvieno's creature script. Two headed, cow sized predatory grazer if that makes sense (basically they greatly enjoy picking fights with everything and anything.) I also learned a leather shield makes a great bludgeon in a pinch.

Spearbreakers 2 will be awesome. Though with the amount of stuff that wants to kill everything you might want to change the amount of embark dwarves.

[Lolfail0009]

No, just give dwarves [SPEED:850]

They'll move just a little faster, maybe fast enough to get away...

[Aseaheru]

will there be Hobbits?

[The Master]

Splint, how much would you say your dwarf enjoys life?

[Splint]

Why.

[Corai]

Calling it now, he is dead.

[The Master]

Ummm...well...you see...Ummm...Zospu ordered take out.

[Splint]

I want that monster dead. YOU HERE ME!? DEAD.

How the fuck did it even get in, and why was I were it could get near me? my shit is one the TOP FUCKING PART OF THE FORTRESS.

[The Master]

Oh ho ho...he's dead alright...BECAUSE THE GAME CRASHED AGAIN! Oh well, it's gotta be my computer...

[The Master]

As for the reason why he was down there, I enlisted everyone into a bunch of temporary armies to deal with the beasts once and for all. DIDN'T work out...

[Splint]

There are no words for the rage in me right now. I will inform you, we have professional soldiers for a reason.

EDIT: Please humor me, because now I'm in a VERY foul mood and must vent my frustration. it is being spoilered to prevent you all from having to actually read it.

Temporary army to kill FBs = stupid even for an insane person.
"I did it for !!FUN!!" No. You did it just because you wanted to kill us all and you were bored.
No matter what it's made of, you send the professionals. Not conscripts, you send the people who know what the hell thier doing. That means you send Fischer or someone from the army. Not Talvi, not Splint, Not Choppa, you send soldiers.
To reiterate: Made of coke? Professionals. Made of mud? Still professionals. made of anything? SEND THE FUCKING PROFESSIONALs. We also don't need literally anything in the caverns. The FBs are in great numbers, can't fly for the most part, and one is stuck on a tree. We don't need to kill them unless they get into the fortress, in which case, send the fucking professionals, or barring them, whichever miners happen to be closest. We're already hemorraging people, and while I expected negligence induced deaths your turn (or badluck in a siege) I didn't expect you to pull something THAT STUPID. Just because a soldier can kill them with a stiff rap on the chest doesn't mean they aren't capable of killing anything they can reach with thier sheer strength. Also, do note our army is short on recruits and a danger room should have been built to get recruits up to par with the surviving veterans. None of the noble hammers were danger roomed. and therefore not even up to snuff to fight spawn or most goblins yet, let alone those fucking monstrosities. Hall, most of the fortress isn't up to fighting those, let alone fucking monsters. I understand your character is insane, but that's full blown idiocy, not madness. And that's not even stupidity for the damned dwarf! That's player stupidity! What the hell were you thinking!?

There. I feel a little better now, pardon the petty insults and cursing. i just needed to vent at the aquisition of such information.

[The Master]

When you're ready, I would like to explain why.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I had an interesting idea, granted it failed, but only because I didn't give it enough time. The plan was to train everyone a little but in basic combat, that way, in the event of a crisis and the worst of the worst happens, and the whole army is wiped out, the citizens would still have a better chance if they forced into a situation where the only option is one final charge. I trained them for a while, but I was getting impatient, so I tested it out on the beasts, and well, you know the rest. It can still work, I just need to train them more.

[Mr Frog]

Splint, please refrain from berating people when they experience what may have been an honest lapse in judgment. Trust me when I say it doesn't help.

[Splint]

As I said, I needed to vent. I' walking away from it now and not reading that response mostly so I won't fly off the handle like i've been known to do, largly to avoi freaking anyone out. I just needed to vent, I apologize. Just needed to vent.
