Secretive mood, a milker claimed a jeweller's shop. Also, 5 of my dwarves decided to take a nap next to the river.

Dealing with tantrums and berzerkers because I decided to clear up all the xClothingx and other crap clogging up my FPS and issue copper armor to most civilians. Went from single digits to 100 on most uneventful days. Still slows to a crawl when invaders show up, but oh well.

Lost a legendary hammerdwarf to a thief with an iron dagger. Poor guy got his upper spine nicked and suffocated. Also killed off a necro siege with unarmed, naked militarydwarves, because they decided to drop all their gear and pick it back up when I reorganized their squads.

I hope you're not in a crocodile-friendly biome!  Do you have enough beds?

No crocs, (no real hostile creatures in general; I'm in a good biome and no goblinite shipments have arrived yet.), but I think all of my beds are claimed. I'm building a dorm right now.

Aaannd he made... a bucket. Skinnedship the Routed Legend is a bloodstone bucket. It menaces with spikes of bloodstone.

At least it's not a figurine or something like that.

I once got all excited when I thought the artifact announcement was for a gold war hammer.  Then I looked again I saw that it actually said gold TOY hammer .

I thought that outfitting all of my dwarves in full iron armor would come in handy when a siege came.  With iron axes, no less, and many masterpieces among both armor and weapons.  Then a small siege came: goblin lashers with a swordsgoblin commander.

Well, I lost like five dead and ten injured.  Forgot whips cut armor like butter.

Relicshield, pop. 158, Later Winter of 344 (Year 93)

Though the dwarves of Relicshield have long felt an affinity for dragons, wild ones have remained a threat.  Nganiz Brandedfire attacked before any preparations for capture could be organized.  She was slain by the swordsdwarf Mebzuth II Orbgroup, with the help of the marksdwarf Uvash Cresenttours.  Unfortunately, a civilian, Libash Graniteright, was nicked by Nganiz's breath and died soon after.

From my first (ever!) goblin ambush:

The Swordsdwarf punches The Goblin Maceman in the lower left back teeth from the side with his left hand and the severed part sails off in an arc.

Successfully avenging his militia captain's tragic tooth loss to the sea lamprey from a couple years back.

Funnily enough, that was Ingiz the "incredibly tough" Swordsdwarf's entire contribution to the battle. Didn't even bother to draw his sword, just went straight for the teeth. One punch, one kill. Hasn't even upgraded his wool gloves to gauntlets yet either.

He has a calm demeanour but does NOT handle stress well.

I had extra embark points so I took 20 cats. By the summer my carpenter adopted ALL of them.

Well done, Ingiz!  What was the rest of the battle like?

2 goblins killed, the rest (6 or so) dodged their way into to cages. No military dwarf casualties or even injuries (steel > leather) but I did lose a hauler who stumbled across the first goblins outside. There was a reason he was given that scavenging job though and it was not because he was unexpendable.

I was planning on holding back and using the goblins for target practice but my marksdwarf militia captain had no ammo so charged straight at them armed only with his artifact birchen crossbow. He entered a martial trance (which I guess kept him alive). The actual infantry kinda had to charge in there too to save face.

You know what you must do.

RELEASE THE CATKRAKKEN!

I like my military. They're barely trained, and it's only the second autumn, but they managed to take out an ettin without it actually getting a hit in. Seriously, its only meaningful action was to free its broken right lower arm from my commander's toothy grasp.
