159. When building a GCS silk farm with a wild GCS, de- and reconstructing it umpteen times does not make it work. Not using a cat as bait does.

[Vodrilus]

160. Disabling autopausing and minimizing the frame is a bad idea.
161. Trying to kill your imprisoned vampire queen with repeating steel spikes only attracts retrievers for the (always?) non-mortally wounded queen, killing or wounding the retriever(s). Thus a bad idea. Especially when failing to follow 160.

[Melzer]

162. You can't dig through the edge of the map.
163. Don't let anybody stand on a frozen pool in the spring.
164. Everybody loves cats!

[78325]

165. A bridge over a moat filled with water is not a good place for your military to meet the goblin ambush.Your dwarves will dodge.Off the bridge and into the water.

[Batman Wayne]

166. Keas are pests.

[Sprin]

167-NEVER FORGET ABOUT PRODUCING BOOZ AND BARRELS
168-Rock pots are a elfs way out

[Mobotium]

169. Deconstructing a 10 z-lvl tall up/down stairway beginning from the topmost level may cause a atmospheric phenomenon known as "Dwarf Rain".

170. In the event of a "Dwarf Rain", having embarked in a hot sand desert without any sort of river or lake can be very !!FUN!! indeed.

[GoombaGeek]

171. When forgotten beasts attack animal men, and the animal men kill it, then you now have highly-trained animal men, possibly with poison-coated weapons.
172. If they don't kill it, they've aggravated it, and it'll produce a lot more doom gas/venom/webs for your cats to step in.

[MightyDorf]

173. When the first areas are dug, define a burrow just in case, then check regularly the "other" screen : ink men, yetis, ogres, or fucking centaurs who haunt the mountainsides are horribly annoying. One death with seven dorfs at the beginning may result in tamtruming spirals, fun, and possibly a future reclaim.

[DanteThanatos]

174. Check if the dinning room isn't under and open to a traped 1 tile-thin bridge filled with serrated discs above it. Falling arms and torsos can and will kill many dwarves.
175. When making a moat, check thrice if it isn't going to flood the Mayor chambers...with the mayor inside the chambers...sleeping.Or not.

also bump.

[Slayerhero90]

Dude. Don't necro.

176. You will most likely abandon many forts out of boredom.

[misko27]

177. Crundles come in terrifyingly large packages.

[Splint]

177a. Crundles also make good training fodder for your animal trainers.

178. Living off elk bird bone exports on a glacier is a generally bad idea if you rely on  import booze. (SO MANY MIGRANTS IN SPRING D:)

179. Keep an eye on dwarves who have butchery enabled. Those piles of crundles you killed will draw thier attention and they will run the risk of being killed by a draltha or giant toad whilst recovering crundle skeletons for disassemblage. (lost a couple dwarves this way)

180. Legendary miners become even deadlier when issued both a pick and large dagger. It doesn't however mean they're immune to having thier legs broken by a goblin mace.

181. When trying to capture a giant cave spider, make sure none of your marksdwarves are off duty near the trap site. They'll end up oneshotting that spider you went out of your way to attempt capture of.

toad-edit: cleaned up a spat that messed up the numbering

201. Never butcher fire imps! Some dorf will bring the burning meat into the food store and put it right next to the booze, causing 25 kinds of fun. Also, always have a source of fresh water ready.

[Hanslanda]

No, Just stop.

Technically speaking, since you keep posting in this, it hasn't been necro'd since the first person necro'd it. And also, if you keep being all pissed off about people posting in a thread in an on-topic manner, then you're being a troll. As Splint said, if you don't want to see more, don't read it.

202. Caverns are a great place to set up your fortress if you embarked on a glacier. Just remember that terrifying biomes reach all the way to the magma sea. So... Many... Giant toad zombies...
