Where's your smasher?  I was looking for that earlier but couldn't find it.  What exactly did you do?  Kill them and smash the corpses or did you smash them while they were alive?
it has note on it describing it's construction. Plate with smasher behind it, then plate+hatch combo. Sometimes crundles make run over bridge before it raises.

So it's an automatic atom smasher?  Ie.  I just clean out the fort, dump the corpses outside and wait for them to attempt to re-enter the fort upon which they will hit the plates and smash themselves?
You can dump them somewhere inside. Deads raise if the tile where they are belongs to evil region. in our case it that is what under snow. Courtyard along the walls, moat and such are safe, I was dumping boudies there with little problem. I even made butchery next to guard tower - it's safe too.

I really should have wiki'ed this shit before playing my turn.  Oh well live and learn.

...not the best phrase for this situation but what ever...

Likely won't be able to re-claim it before saturday because I have an exam tomorrow so sorry for the delay there guys...

It's really funny watching them do unnecessary surgery because of a wrong diagnosis.
the conditions were bad enough to turn a dwarf who didn't care about anything mad, that's pretty hardcore.

So...no one has buried or memorialized any of my dwarves? Have their zombies caused trouble?

actually the only undead version of you (that i saw) is GreatwyrmGold's  ghost. there may be a couple zombie versions locked down in the caverns. oh and the undead in the caves have managed to kill every forgotten beast that has come our way. thankfully, FBs stay dead once killed.

Yeah.  Thus why I didn't make a trap.  In it's current state the fortress didn't need a trap, the whole damn fortress is a trap.

Words cannot describe how tempted I am to magma flood the place and then just reclaim it after the magma has dried up...

That's why I asked for volcano when we were chosing the location.
But since Ashton spawned some magma with dfhack, you can transform it into infinite source.

I'd rather not hack more...

forgot to mention this earlier, but i never got around to the random killing during my turn. frankly i think that rule should be scrapped, in any other fort it would make a fun addition, but between the zombies and the traps, we've got more than enough death.

Agreed.  I don't think anyone has actually done it so far.

On a side note, I think I might just roll back to your save and go from there.  What do you guys think?  Should I re-claim or roll back?

Re-read my post. I actualy meant the it's ok to rollback to save if reclaim is too hardcore. I did some savescumming at my reclaim, to be honest.

My only concern is that Reclaiming will take too long.  I just don't want to keep everyone waiting.

I really should have looked up how the zombie thing works.  All this happened because I was trying to transfer the zombies to the smasher. 
*sigh*

Oh well not like I had done much before they stood up XD
