Accidentally turn the ONLY weaponsmith in the fort into steel sword golem (read, lvl 50+ ultra legendary...) - FUCK 

Wait, does MW allows levels above Legendary+5( 20)?

[Innocent Dave]

I'm currently recovering (I hope) from a necromorph apocalypse that wiped out half my military and a number of important artisans.  The only dwarf completely unaffected was the archaeologist responsible, who calmly sat in his lab messing about with another artifact the whole time while chaos reigned outside.

@broken
If you mouse over the skill in dwarf therapist, it will tell you what the raw level is. Anything over 20, will have the EXACT same results as 20.

My herd of about 50 pekyts somehow beat the crap out of a goblin ambush, with only 8 (non-deadly) injuries to the pekyts.  I am now stationing herds of pekyts all around the fortress.

My lead pekyt, Abeontim, is no longer a war pekyt and has a private field.  He is blind in both eyes and is missing one of his legs.  Although the game doesn't keep track, I've witnessed Abeontim bite 27 goblins to death.

Quadruplets are tough... especially if their skin = hardened leather, but 27 seems a bit high. ^^

Gingerbread men. Never would of expected that...

I have a friendly, named, Troglodyte maceman down in the caverns, guarding my door. I think he killed a forgotten beast that hadnt pathed to a visible part of my fort. Part of me wants to capture him, and bring him inside to hang out with my beards, and get some beer as thanks for wiping out 3 ambushes of his fellow troglodytes so far.

At the same time, I forgot to open my front door to let the outpost liason leave. I finally remembered, he got 3 steps onto the surface, and went berserk when he saw the snowing dwarf blood. (hooray for embarking on a terrifying tundra) But he continued to path off the map. Since he (kinda) safely left alive, even tho he is doomed to death for being berserk, will i get my requested items next year? or do i have to wait for 2 more years before i can get my trade license?

Wereiguana attacks in the first year and it changes back into its regular form which is a rime giantess. Death count: An orc farmer and a baby pekyt.

To test the workaround for the Digging Invaders bug, I booted up my latest autosave, which is midway through a Necromorph Apocalypse of mildly epic proportions, and let it run.  Returning to the game after ten minutes afk, I find that half my fortress has been butchered by the corpses of their friends, but the game has then paused for the dire warning:

"A Rhesus Macaque!  Drive it away!"

[Aristion]

The alert was important. They might steal your socks.

In the beginning of the second year, one of our miners turned into a werewolf and broke my military commander's leg before getting killed. Then a bunch of forest spiders stormed into the fort and killed everyone except said military commander, who then went insane.

And so ended the story of Silkcities. How fun.

Funny how that worked out with forest spiders and the fort being named Silkcities.

There was certainly a lot of silk, alright. Blood, too.
