Another Seige... They Brought Some friends this time...
« on: April 09, 2012, 09:15:36 pm »

I got seiged a second time by goblins, I'm more prepared this time with PLENTY of traps, a MASSIVE wall, and the dragon... Except this time they have a hammerLORD and a pikeMASTER with them... And I checked the civ screen and it appears one of the swordsmen in this opening strike is their war leader... Provided their last names are the same cause I think its a bit cut off on civ screeen... Regardless, I have 7 mixed soldiers, a war bear, a dragon, and enough traps to catch ANYTHING that comes near me and if they make it through, a barrier of 3 10 serraded disk traps done almsot masterfully awaits them... This a goblin christmas or a slaughter waiting to happen?

EDIT: I'd also like to make note they brought a Troll with them...

EDIT2: I'd like to restate they have 7 trolls comming now...

Jee wilikers, I think Highmax is near invulnerable, must have been dunked in the river styx like achilles was.
Just make sure he wears a boot.

I just found last week, a way to view those long names in DF.  Press F12, to toggle truetype on/off.  On mine it shrinks the text down and lets me read long names on stuff.  Good luck surviving the siege.

So far, I've slaughter all of their swordsmen, captured like 6 marksmen, and they still havent retreated yet... The bastards killed all my wolverines... :'( I WILL MAKE THEM PAY! *bear continues to rip off goblins head* HELL YEAH!

EDIT: Two brave soldiers went to fight the crossbow men, and killed all but 4 and they dropped dead side by side... They will be remembered for the years to come, and the other four are slaughtering trolls

Good news: I captured about half of their army and the rest serve as a warning to the rest of the goblins, and as it turned out, he had PART of the war leaders name in his, so it wasn't him (weird...) and I captured their hammerlord and their pikemaster who will be executed once I make a place for them to be

Execute them by long drop, that's how I do it. (Don't execute thieves or crossbowgoblins with this method.)
