I am still so confused.
We necroed your thread which was the oldest dead thread in this section of the forums and made a succession game out of it and modded the game to suit our needs. After the fort perished, we decided to start a new fort that would be the continuation of Necrothreat I and so Necrothreat II was born. End of story.
And it continues with human traders. My new depot is incomplete due to a disturbing lack of microcline blocks.
The traders moved into the old depot. I prepared to take all their crap, when a goblin ambush arrived.
My recruits hastened to defend their great fortress...
... by which I mean ONE recruit took my commands seriously, while the rest attended some last-minute combat training.
The training soon concluded, and five
brave AWFUL forumites charged from the newly-constructed Gates of Necrothreat, into the hail of silver goblin arrows.
They were all crippled and unconscious within a few seconds, and dead a few seconds later.
More forumites ran out to collect the socks of the fallen, only to be slaughtered in the unrelenting waves of silver arrows.
Seriously, there are so many arrows flying around, it looks like they have some kind of semi-automatic crossbows.
Kobolds began appearing, to steal things. The human guards chased them off, though.
And then, a random hunter named Kel Wheelvision fired some lulz at the goblins. Stricken with laughter, they fled from the hilarity. The forumites cheered, for they had won. Scavenged socks for everyone! A doctor took advantage of the celebrations to claim a workshop for some reason.
Anyway, our entire military is dead. To a
man dwarf forumite. Even the named axedwarf, who didn't even get a single shot in before he became a feathered pincushion.
Some other random forumites are dead, and a mason took an arrow to the knee. Altogether, a very productive first two seasons. Autumn is here now, and I have a horrible feeling that things will only get worse.
