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

Our enemies will have to wade through a carpet of pushy doom before they may face our warriors.

Carpet is right-

*emerges from the deeps*

Your problem is already solved in the form of "pit gorlaks". :P which are already in canon.

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeey, Talvi exists again!

And pit gorlaks aren't as adorable as "a carpet of pushy doom" :P

Well well, look who it is! And pit gorlaks are less push and more bite. Very much bite.

EDIT: Damn, ninja'd.

Not so much bite if you're wearing anything better than copper armor.

Won't stop them from latching on and shaking. With big freakish mouths like theirs they could probably pull an armored dwarf's arm out of its socket.

Lol, you'd be surprised. I was actually disappointed with how dangerous stock gorlaks were, and was forced to beef them up a bit just to make them a threat to civilians.

I've had more than a handful of legendary miners killed or injured by them before, so pit gorlaks must be comparatively nasty.

Splint: I suppose. I'll run some tests in Arena mode to be sure, I guess.

Reudh! Hey! (: Great to see you again. lol  How've you been?

Hello!
I have three questions.
1. Cavy warriors.
2. What is frogradio.kpl?
3. ...My math sucks.
1. Cavy warriors are a joke related to when Talvi said that the fortress would be saved from the timewar by cavy warriors, or some such nonsense. lol  They don't actually gen with worldgen.

2. Frogradio.kpl is just source code. Changing it won't have any effect on anything whatsoever - you could even delete it. I just included it so people could see how the program works - and feel a little safer in knowing I'm not putting any viruses on their computer. :P
I ought to rewrite it in Java now that I know how...

3. Ummmmm? Not sure what you mean by that.

He claimed to have three questions, yet he only gave two; "[his] math(s) sucks"



E: Considering the silently pondered release date of DF2014, I figure I may as well write a little interlude for the Creator, show what happens after he got "Double sushi'd".


I know it's short, even by my standards, but it's hot down here :/

Since we appear to already be posting stories, hopefully nobody minds a short and mostly-pointless entry in the saga of Thol Avalrigoth:


E: @Talvi: Good to hear from you again.
