It looks very much like the game is starting to make fortress self-destruct devices actually useful now! Well, in as much as a self-destruct is ever useful.

Imagine the danger if one of your migrants were a former soldier who immediately goes berserk...

I remember one time I got a migration wave of one baby. I lol'd and wondered how he managed to make it here.

Also, mildly off-topic here, but Dorfimedes? Please find a different avatar, your current one creeps me right the fuck out.

No! That avatar is hilarious. I laughed out loud the first time I saw it.

Instead of killing the old fort off, why not embark as a different civ?

Ha, great accidental feature there.  Inept fortress managers may have to skip town and start fresh in a new kingdom, far away from their unsavory reputation.

So did I. Then I realised how horrible that really is. Then I laughed again.

I'll go for third'd. I chuckled a little when I realized what it was.

I actually felt pretty sad about that, somehow. It seems that the game hasn't made me completely jaded yet, I was struck by how tragic it all was. So much senseless death.

ledgekindred ponders Dorfimedes' statement.

I don't understand, though that is about right with anything DF related.
I just hope he dies the same death that all dwarfs deserve: liver disease.

Hey, I made a Self-Destruct device QUITE useful, ah-thankyou  :P

Dorfimedes, I find your avatar both off-putting and disturbing.  I laughed like a goddamn idiot for a solid minute after watching it.  I'm STILL trying to stop bursting out into more laughter just from thinking about it. 


...I'm a bad person, aren't I?

I had an above ground garden built in the grounds of my castle and two young dwarves spent time socialising there over the summer and at the end of the summer they were in love. Remember those long summers of your childhood? That first kiss in the gardens while crossbows dwarves shoot goblins above your head? The rain of dead birds as the hunters get to work? Truly Spearhills is a paradise.

Bad, good, it is all subjective, and I haven't met many people who subjectify standards by the amount of hentai drawn.

Bay12, you so weird
