According to the Mantis change log, it's now been fixed.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

They said the walls were impregnable. You didn't have to prove me wrong by giving birth on them.

Will it ever be possible to build your own Necromancer tower in adventure mode, founding a new site with all the normal interactions?

It would be amazing to be able to play a long game as a successful, god-like, adamantium-clad Necromancer, and then try to defeat him as another adventurer or try to survive the onslaught of his undead armies and raised legendary companions in fortress mode.

Being able to affect fortress mode with adventure mode actions and vice-versa would bring out the soul of this magnificent game.

But will that actually have that functionality? Will my Necromancer "control" that tower and invade my fort with his undead armies, or will he come alone if at all?

You can't take over the tower, no. It seems in early DF2014 you could conquer bandit camps, and I assume you could do the same to towers back then. But now only hamlets or towns can be taken over.

You can ask to join their group I think, so THAT might work.

The biggest siege I've ever gotten in 42.03 was 120. However, all the sieges after it were smaller, even though my fortress continued to get wealthier. Is this a bug?

The Goblins could be running out of population.

How do I check for this possibility? Legends mode?

When might the master/apprentice system enter fort mode and a skill system overhaul so that some dwarfs can only get so far in a skill and the speed a which they progress a bit like how attributes are limited?

Would this also mean dwarfs would need to learn how to craft certain items either from their master or reading it from a book/scroll, thinking that scholars would be able to study weapons and other objects and come up with a detailed design of it then that could be given to another dwarf to try and then think of a way to craft it.

Engraved is a superior rendition of an image of Arkoth, the local deity of balance and speech, and two elves. Arkoth is burning the two elves. Arkoth is laughing. The two elves are suffering. The image was commissioned by the Round Guild, a local dwarven government.
