Diacetyl, that's the plan.
It'll be after I finish the challenge and get the king in, but I plan to crack the HFS and go out in style.
Jess: Swimming is harder than it looks at first glance. You've got to force them into 4/7 to 6/7 water to train it, and is generally annoying to do, as well as injury prone. You're actually better off creating a minecart ride through water (see the wiki) to train swimming up. I suppose that's easy enough to do and show off.
I don't typically use danger rooms, but the concept is simple enough if your troops are armored. Coinstars are harder to pull off. I'll start the setup for that, I think. Well, really they're just more annoying to setup, but same difference.
Dwarven Day Care is a long running thread that has a lot of odd science in it. I haven't caught up on that in a while. I'd have to do a bunch of research for that for little reward, really. Though, I've had an idea towards Dwarven Kindergartens. Does anyone know if there's been any significant charting of dwarven weights from childhood through adulthood? IE: At 10 years old a dwarf weighs ~x, at 12 ~y, at Adult ~z? I couldn't find any offhand.
The fort itself has had a few false starts on the next episode, and what I've got is so disjointed it doesn't make a lot of sense, so my next update will be a review of things done. However, I just had some major dental work done so I sound ridiculous at the moment. Literally new teeth and learning how to use them. It's given me time to play, however, which is always nice.
