So, how do we go about having conversations with wagons in the new version?

[Henny]

I imagine various "unit select" sound effects from various RTSes with siege units playing when talking to a wagon.

The wagon spits at you.
The spinning +steel mace+ strikes you in the head, and the injured part explodes in gore!
You have been struck down.
Wagon McMurderer: It was inevitable.

I don't know why, but the word "scuttle" is pretty much guaranteed to make me crack up, even in writing.

This thread endangered my health with laughter.

Someone needs to mod a Wagon cult into this game.

[RealFear]

I once had a wagon get stuck against a ditch outside my fort where it hanged around for a few months before EXPLODING! It was pretty cool. Got free stuff.

Well, normally people destroy the wagon after awhile anyway, so "free stuff" isn't abnormal.

Has anyone tried giving wagons [CAN_SPEAK]?  It might actually work.

This thread just got more melancholy and more amusing at the same time.

*Tips hat*

You're weird people. Weird, but good. I think.

[Karkov]

As I trundle through the valley of the shadow of scuttling
I take a look at my load and realize there's nothin' left
Cause I've been rolling and wheeling so long,
That even my wainwright thinks that my axel is gone
But I ain't never crossed a wagon that didn't deserve it
Me be treated like a plank you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you're talking and where you're driving
Or you and your dwarves might be lined in dolomite-sarcophagi
I really hate to scuttle but I gotta lob
As they croak, I see myself in the bridge malfunction, fool
I'm the kinda W the little saplings wanna be like
On my wheels in the night unloading goods in the trade depot

I know it's a couple of days late, but I just read that as if Weird Al sang it, instead of Gangsta's Paradise.

I've heard that [NO_THOUGHT] causes anything, regardless of [CAN_SPEAK]s presence, to be completely silent.

[Cptn Kaladin Anrizlokum]

Someone should give wagons a language. Would that be possible?

[King Kravoka]

They would need a civilization first.

[Max™]

Oh no, we've got some wagonmancers... wagonurges... wagonicians... wagonorcerers?

...wagonturgists perhaps?

[TD1]

A land of Free Wagons, harshly enslaved by the Dwarves to be Menial Beasts, their minds active and thinking, always aware, but with no mouth to scream their endless, torturous anguish...

Yep, sounds like Dwarf Fortress.
