Heh. Remember, I am simultaneously Derm Hellbinder, and also Derm Soulchopper.

Which came first and which holds sway over the Fearbringer is a matter lost to the heat of Armok's forge. Maybe it's someone new.

Anyway, enough ego boosting for me, back to the story!

But one missed strange mood and you're liable to become Derm Dwarfchopper.

Quick, check him for rum! The bastard's probably spirited some off to his lair office, to act as pleasant refreshment as his evil scheme unfolds!

Do military dwarves get strange moods?

Yeah, I've had dwarves assigned to squads get moods before. I can't recall clearly if the dwarves were on active duty at the time or what, but I know for sure that my axedorf military commander got a strange mood at some point and became a legendary stonecrafter.

I think Raptor was a military dwarf, and he got a strange mood, so I'm going to say yes.

I'm sorry for the lack of updates, but I've been slammed by homework this week and have a big presentation coming up on Friday that I must prepare for. If you're willing to wait, I can probably finish my turn, but if the next guy is itching to go I can post a short farewell entry and upload the save.

The raws aren't duplicated - The tilesets just change the art for the pieces. If you have LNP, you can update the savegame to the tileset. Or lack thereof.
No you can't, that does not work on modded games because LNP does not preserve the modifications.
You have to change tilesets on modded games by hand.

I am unable to complete my turn fully, sorry guys :( I'm uploading the save so the next player can continue on.

Things I was unable to accomplish:

   -The Temple of Armok is basically useless for the sacrifice of farm animals, though it should work better for genuine enemies. Also, I never did get around to putting in the tables and such to make a dining hall.

   -Nobody ever had a successful mood. The Spirit World and I do not get along well.

   -There's a cat loose in the fort. Not sure if it's male or female. Kill it anyways, it is a sacrifice to Armok and that must be completed!

   -Never exacted my revenge on Anima Rytak for booze-hoarding. ("Saint" Ducimakum, Military Governor, is stricken by melancholy!)

In-Character reason for abdicating the throne:

~~~
From the Journal of Saint, Military Governor of Murdermachines, Templar of Armok, Empress of the Underground, and Former Master of the Void-Wraiths


LIMESTONE 3, YEAR OF ARMOK 252

Nothing...has...happened...in...months.

I can't do this anymore. There are mosquitos to be hunting, a son to be raising in the way of the Templars of old, skills to be maintaining - and here am I, scratching a quill scross some blasted cat parchment and filling out Mok-damned immigration forms!

I'm going into the damned portal tonight and dragging that deserting heir out of the Void and giving him a body here. I quit! I forfeit! I resign! Someone else can have the damned job, I have Giant Mosquitos to kill! I didn't repossess someone's body and annihilate their soul so I could become a petty bureaucrat managing some two-bit outpost on the ass end of creation! I'm through!

...I'm keeping the apartment, though, I think. It's a damn fine apartment, even if only half-done.

I'm leaving this log and a list of my regrets in the top drawer of the Overseer's desk. Raptor just walked by and I want to laugh at his failures one last time before he can do something about it legally.

And with that, Insanity Incarnates turn is up.

As per usual, you have the option of completing both Saints year and your own year, in order to keep future overseer transitions smoother and easier to remember.

Welcome to Murdermachines. Try the gecko sauce; it's delectable and delightful, a wonderful blend of savory and spicy that makes any dish delicious without being too overwhelming.

Insanity, one favor, since we never got confirmation on it:

Please verify that we do have a marksdwarf named Krosan II and a baby dorf named Lashidang in the fort right now, I have no clue if Saint got around to it.

Would appreciate, for the sake of curiosity, a screen of Krosan II's details page to see what kind of antisocial prick he is.

I can confirm for you right now that I never got around to it. Honestly, I entirely forgot about Lashidang.

I think a dorfing list would be a good idea.
