A question about slabs and caravan guards.
« on: April 09, 2012, 02:02:36 pm »

During an ambush, one of the caravan guards that charged at the gobbos gave his life to help the caravan. I had him entombed with the rest of the honored dead (behind several feet of wall), but I notice that I can't engrave a slab for him. I can, however, engrave slabs for my own dwarves - of course - as well as the goblins the guard helped slay. Why can't I memorialize him? I'm stuck with his corpse anyway, and I don't see why not. Is this a bug?

Yes, it's a bug (it was already mentioned in the dfhack thread on the modding board).

Build a mausoleum over his corpse. So even if he gets necroed, hes stuck there. -OR- Maybe as undead, he will defend you from yet another goblin attack? ;)
