^ Height requirement for gibs has increased substantially, since gravity was re-worked. I think it was reported that ten levels used to be enough, while now it's about 25. Last time i had a deep drop shaft, it was 35 deep and everything thrown in there came apart upon landing.
Blamelesscloister:
Shit, i need to deactivate goblin seasons again. 42 adults just cannot keep up with the ridiculous garbage bombardment of four "sieges" per year. Not to mention that without traders getting through, we can't even get rid of this glut of useless crap.
Just to annoy me even more than usual, the last siege was rather unexpected (didn't know i had lifted restrictions), so a bunch of trolls managed to sprint over the bridge beside the grinder, giving them access into the machinery, so they thoroughly smashed the gears and rollers before wandering into the weapon traps. Since the rollers were partially built on ice and unfrozen via construct/deconstruct bug which i couldn't get working again, i had to rip out _all_ rollers, wait for the dwarfs to shift the mountains of goblinite that were clogging the places, build track underneath, _rebuild_ all the rollers, reconnect. Yeah, it took a full damn season to get the grinder functional again, by which time the one goblin squad that was actually interested in sieging us had gotten bored and wandered off, the other had once again managed to get part of their crew caught behind the trench, so it was time for military action again. I better build a bridge instead of the stupid hatch covers - building destroyers inevitably catch themselves by destroying them.
In short - blargh.
At least the designated architect is finally listed with Architect as profession. Oh yeah, and i dumped the stupid caught war animals (four cave dragons and about a dozen giant olms and ~ bats) into the caverns. Let them have fun with the forgotten beasts.
