what is 2014's doomanimal?
« on: July 10, 2014, 03:56:29 pm »
We've seen trout and sponges be great threats in the past, and I wonder what the greatest non-tree threat in 2014 may be.

I think we need to get creatures to a point where they actively attack again before we can start choosing the next King of Beasts.

I understand that it is disappointing when a dwarf makes a spiked loincloth instead of an axe.

Sea lampreys killed two river otters and one dwarf in one of my first fortresses of DF 2014.

The river otters they bashed the fuck out of with their tails, while they knocked a dwarf into the water and had him drown.

Edit: It's safe to say any water-borne animal with a tendency to engage with dwarves are still dangerous, seeing as they can knock them into water.

The UNDEAD.  They do not have the feelings, so they can use the new combat system to the full extent.

Birds. They pass out in midair, fall in your head, and you die.

In a hole in the ground there lived a dwarf. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a dwarf fortress, and that means magma.

TREES.
They will lure you into a false sense of security with the fact falling from short distances no longer can cripple you, and then BAM.
You fall because your agility wasn't high enough, and your neck is pulped.

The greatest non-tree threat in DF2014 are dwarves.

They climb into volcanos. They run away from enemies. Isn't this obvious?
