Had a bigger Aqir siege pop up. One of my axemen got decapped, although the monks proved themselves to be quite deadly in this one.



The mace squad captain also neglected to bring her mace and instead opted for...breaking her buckler over one of the invader's heads.

Oddly badass, shame that after that she was reduced to only using her fists.

Meanwhile one of the axemen is thinking of opening a horse lobotomy company.

Just lost my fortress to an undead siege. While the undead massacred my dwarves, I managed to seal the entrances and unseal the caverns, allowing a forgotten beast into the fortress that cleansed it of living and dead alike. All that remains is an impentrable tomb, but it is at least clear of foul undead.

I was browsing through legends and learned that a goblin fort had been sacked by the humans. Not once or twice, but one hundred and twelve times. There's been over a thousand deaths on both sides over 200 years of fighting, and just about every historical figure in the human government body has participated in this semi-annual sacking in some way.

Not sure if dying of old age is an honor or a shame for weaponmasters. On the one hand, it means they never got the opportunity to die in glorious battle. On the other hand, it means nothing could beat them in glorious battle.

Had once a goblin master that went undercover in order to participate in competitions during frog man festivals. He was doing it over two hundred years, then probably got mad after losing a morningstar throwing championship and conquered the frog man lands.

Procedurally generated customs sure are curious.

During a siege, one of my elite monk wrestlers grabbed a boat hook from one of the drowned invaders...and proceeded to go absolutely ham with it.



I love this game.


Pike squad captain also let out an anime scream as the siege was nearing its end.

Nothing personnel drowned one. It is the apex of Dwarven martial arts to defeat the enemy with their own weapons

Meanwhile, my dwarves are turning the outside sculpture garden into a vomitorium:

As is tradition the dwarves go outside and coat the surface with their vomit, painting it a lovely shade of green.

I mean, once you have a population of 100 and more or so, your whole fortress is one big vomitorium.

Vomitorium seriously needs to be a in-game term, tho. Just imagine, pressing i-v, define borders for the activity zone, and your dwarves now can sate their vomit needs in designated place.

Or make it a stockpile.

Just imagine being able designate a cistern to be filled with vomit then dumping it out on the goblins and elves when they invade.

Getting back into DF after some time off, genned a new world and started a new fort, as usual.

My first migrants were two undead dwarves who were raised by the same necromancer after rotting in their graves for nearly a century and then, after few decades of unlife, became romantically involved with each other. Apparently they're also both deeply involved in a huge necromancer conspiracy to take over the whole world and will probably start plotting against the fort at some point.

Now what should I do with them? They're not exactly prime migrant material, so should I just draft them and send them on suicide missions? Or should I try to get them married and to produce unholy babies, despite me being deeply disturbed by the idea of ghoulish lovebirds smooching in my corridors?

Maybe I'll just let it play it out as it goes; I sense there's a Story waiting to be told in this fortress.
