Cage a monster and stick it on the path you want to web. Lead a tamed spider (If you have one) within sight from the direction you want the path webbed, and let the shooting commence.

Triplets, ofc.
My guess is that demons lack the MULTIPLE_LITTERS_RARE tag.

A goblin fortress is trading with a human town . . . ?

The Dark fortress is firmly goblin, in composition, loeadership, site-name and leadergroup name, and even 3rd party utilities agree, but its trading with the humies and I dont know why.

The larger goblin sites do seem to do this, Ive noticed a few weird trade routes when I export them.

Is it real trading or just a sort of kidnapping relationship?

Yea.  Trade export supports it too.  The large gobbo sites are connected to the interciv networks.

According to the gobbo I talked to, 'Ticklock trades with no less than 5 major settlements.  the largest is finlove [a human city].  there are six villages that utilize that Trade Depot.'

Goblins actually trade at their major fortresses.  Or do in my games.

I know Im in here a lot recently, but I found out that, as odd as it seems, critters will keep track of knapped and raised family.

A dwarf necromancer told me about his niece with a goblin name.  His sister was 'knapped as a baby, raised by gobbos and gave birth to a daughter, who was given a goblin name.


This necromncer, who has been isolates from dwarven society for almost a century, knew his kidnapped sister had  a child.  This child has never known dwarven society either.

Haven't poked at this behavior too much, but it appears that growth happens discretely at daily intervals.  That is, if you put two very different sizes on a creature one day apart, it will quantum leap between them rather than grow linearly through the day.

I would like to know why they sometimes camp out and gather 1000+ zoms and zero followers or choose to take over sitwes instead of building a tower.

'Tower' necromancers tend to only engage in conventional warfare.  they seem to exist as a site loosely tied to their parent civ.

Wagons are apparently allowed to go through 1 hatch cover.  :v

They can fit through any 1 tile wide space. It's just that the wagon accessibility map tells them not to do it. All bets are off in adventure mode.

Are you saying the accessibility map doesn't take into account floor tiles if they could otherwise access the below area from going around? In other words, what's the layout of your hatch?

The hatch is in the middle of 3 ramp tiles.

Wouldn't the hatch just swing out of the way, then?

Edit: Are you implying they can't go through more than one?

Thats been my experience.  Those times I do make hatchway entrances.

Fire men melt unmined ice, turning it into liquid (usable) water.  Kinda neat for a glacial surface volcano.
