also smake, wasps are like succubi and are meant to be targeted early by dwarves

Unless I'm mistaken though, the earlyness of any Dwarven attacks is set in the Dwarven raws (adjustable in the GUI), and have nothing to do with the wasp or succubi raws. 

[than402]

smake is right. did you set the dwarves to attack early?

[Insanegame27]

I didn't touch invasions, It's just that in all the times I've played it, dwarves always attack early.

There is a bug that causes dwarves to ignore siege triggers and attack as soon as the 'first contact' trigger is met, ignoring siege settings, and it is met immediatly by default. We consider that a feature because it's FUN.

[smakemupagus]

Aha.  I always set dwarves and elves to "early" or "very early" anyway so i never noticed the bug

[MDFHIVEWASP]

Rex are you going to finish your turn?

[than402]

I don't think so. Unless Rex finishes his turn soon or someone else wants to take over, I'm gonna take year 2 in sunday.

[Insanegame27]

I already updated OP for me next turn, seeing as i was skipped (with my permission, I had no time). I have time for another turn now, so I'll take it if rex doesnt post. I will start tomorrow morning if he hasnt posted by then

[Insanegame27]

Alright, rex hasn't responded. I will take over. Expect deaths.

[Insanegame27]

Initial reaction on loading therapist: Wholly shit that's a lot of Jackofallmosttrades.

And: OHGODMYEYES


PS: I specialise my guys. But JOAT/JOMT's may suit the wasps short lifespans better.

[than402]

in the first years, when you're interested in setting up your fort quickly rather than producing quality goods, jack-of-all-trades are actually pretty useful. what's a JOAT/JOMT?

[Insanegame27]

((JOAT=Jack Of All Trades. JOMT=Jack Of Most Trades. And thanks for leaving me with a party happening Than. and a constant cannot load cage trap spam))

Diary of Insanegame27. Second Overseer of Spawnedflies

8th granite.

Upon the queen selecting me as her second-in-charge in civilian matters, I immediately had one thought. Stop the JackOfAllTrading and specialise.

There's lots of work to be done. I have a plan for completely seperating the hive from the east side of the river, with a lot of traps involved

I will Dig a trench near the river and fill it with water so the only way across is a tiny land bridge, I have ordered this to happen.

9th Granite.

Today I noticed that we have absolutely no carpenters workshops. I mean, Wasp cement is good and all, but sometimes you need something a little more... Robust? Anyway, part of specialising meant that we have 2 dedicated woodworkers, So i'm going to order one to be built.

6th slate.

Migrants arrived today. we got a worker fleshwarper, a worker butcher, a worker miner, a worker peasant, a worker trader, a high master oven operator worker, a dyer worker and a hunter soldier (who will become the ranged leader. damn birds avoiding my traps.).

1st Felsite.

One of the wasps have been acting strangely lately, It stopped working and just sat in its room. It claims to have knowledge of plans for a super weapon and needs a forge. I have commissioned one to be built.

18th Felsite

Some merchants showed up today, I am ordering the small amount of crafts we have produced to the depot. I am ordering lots of seeds from the traders, whip vine, plump helmet, ald other plants and their seeds we need for the fleshwarper. I am also ordering assorted venoms to coat our weapons with.

25th Felsite.

The Wasp claimed the forge and drew pictures of a forest after grabbing an iron bar. Why do the two loggers have to go onbreak then?

27th Felsite.

Praise the depths! For we now have Errudarbilarri Hutsiemaiz! The Artifact Iron war hammer!

11th Hematite.

The work is going smoothly on the artificial ravine/tobe river. I am designating a trap line into the caverns to catch us some animals for a larvae pit


18th Malachite.

I was making a mechanism for the trap line, and all of a sudden I hear a high pitched scream of a wasp. Rushing to the surface, I saw a massive humanoid mammoth. I am ordering everyone inside the hive and quarantining any that get bitten

[Insanegame27]

Well, fuck. This is my first werecreature too.

[Insanegame27]

19th Malachite.

Fuck. It got Baztu. ((A logger)) and nearly got Egin. ((Our other logger)) I saw the whole thing. At appeared next to the ongoing trenchworks of the river divert. That's when I yelled out in my loudest voice to get everyone inside. The military assembled in the hive ready to take the fucker on. It chased down Baztu. It didn't stand a chance. Baztu got a single swing in with his copper axe, nearly knocking it into the trench. Unfortunately, the beast regained it's balance, grabbed Baztu and ripped it's throat out. ((I am dramatising here.)) Then as the beast raised itself from the kill, Egin charged at it. The two attacked each other for over five full minutes. But, eventually, the brave effort was in vain, as Egin charged it, The beast kicked Egin into the trenchworks, hurting it badly, but no biting. Then as it was poised to bite, a shudder cursed through it's body as an arrow appeared in it's head. Turning into a centaur, the evil being of creation turned tail and ran, helped by the cries of the military and another arrow in it's back.

((I refined the ranged squad. I am having the military as soldiers only until we have a surplus of workers. I also upgraded the ranged squad, giving the sole wasp in it a compound bow.))


16th Galena.
Beak wolves are attacking. I am sounding the alarm

21st Galena.
The beak wolves were no match. I ordered the military to stand to in the courtyard, left the gate open, and as they got caught up in our cage traps, the military charged. The military killed one wolf and then the wolves routed. We killed another one as they were retreating. We now have 6 wolves in the traps.

I wonder if they're big enough for conversion.

23rd Galena.
One of the soldier wasps have been possessed.

1st limestone.
The possession resulted in a tin throne. I'll place it into the meeting hall to improve the room

23rd Timber.
Nothing eventful. The miners opened the trapline today. Let's see if we can get a few infectables

3rd Moonstone.
One of the farmers stopped socialising with everyone, and just ran and took over the clothiers shop

15th Moonstone.
Just as the trench/river/trenchiver (Note to self, that's the official name for it from now on the Trenchiver) is complete, the river freezes over. Great. And the Farmer is yelling for some cut gems
Will make plans for a wall along the river, maybe even some fortifications

17th Opal. A sad day.
One of the farmwasps has been stricken by melancholy. A brief check of the others determines it is a one-off situation. It didn't get the cut gems it wanted for it's grand creation

((This is actually my first time failing a mood))

[MarcAFK]

PTW. Awesome concept. Though I would have liked to see a nightmarish labynthine network of cells like a real hive.... Ugh, succession forts end up this way anyway :p
