Well, founded another fort, in another good/evil biome split, this time with a necro tower close by. Only copper on the map.
First year passed uneventfully.
Second year saw a necromancer siege, and it was pushed back by a goblin ambush.
Third year, I get the message "Aditha Iyathialala Diwiqueca Alu, the Goldenrod Stones of Water has come! An enormous, eyeless tick. It has lacy wings and an austere look. Its dark peach exoskeleton is warty. Beware its fire!" It seems to have melted its fat off itself.
Elven mechants got to it first, and managed to light themselves on fire, along with their stupid wood crap.
I send my military, clad in the best copper gear I can manage at it. After a few minutes of deliberating whether or not to attack (no valid reachable target) the 2 melee squads engage! Clouds of smoke and ash mar their vision, but the brave dwarves fight on to the death!
One of the original seven, a legendary swordsman, manages to fell the beast after blocking its fireballs of doom. (Unfortunately, nothing amazing happend in the combat logs, except this
)
He is now known as Led Adagezum Edtulkez, or Led Soakedhames, the Grooved Negator".
He is also on fire, along with the entire surface, and the first 3 levels of the fort. We have lost 13 dwarves, and may lose more to madness and grief.
And the slayer of the titan has succumbed to the flames, and can finally rest.
