Hooray for goblins!
« on: August 03, 2012, 12:59:17 pm »

So, from day 1 of my new fort I was intent on making it secure and full of traps. Then two goblin ambushes came. I freaked out! My citizens list kept shrinking! I lost at least twenty dwarfs. Then I noticed something.

They were all rangers, fisherdwarves and herbalists. My useful dwarves had stayed inside where it was safe.

Thank you goblins, for ridding Blockadespray of its twenty most useless idlers.

  • They said we have to aim higher, so we dug deeper.

Rangers aren't useful?

Mine generate about three "Ranger cancels Hunt: Cannot find path" messages per second.

Mine generate about three "the flying bolt hits the goblin everywhere" messages per second :P
Just remove their hunting labours and give them military gear.
Well, before they're dead anyways.
