Pretty sure it all happened in the previous ambush, actually, which was a big one with 5 ambusher groups on mounts. I noticed several dwarves were injured then, just didn't realized it was all of them :)

That'll do it to. Just be careful of those occasional grapples though. I wound up with dead soldiers that way...

I had the same happen to me. Forgot to assign my militia uniform, noticed when Urist McCareful decided to throw his colleague, who promptly skidded along the ground with his head, leaving his brain smeared on my barracks. It's amazing how dwarves can train with masterwork adamantine weapons and never injure each other, but wrestling can kill them ...

In other news, I had my first bronze colossus ever. Of course I've read hints that they are dangerous, and so I sent my entire military at it (>100 dwarves, mostly legendary). It still took them quite some time, and I guess I was lucky that the colossus missed all of its 10 or so attacks. In the end, my captain of the guard removed its lower body with an adamantine pick. Now I have a statue of a forgotten beast in my meeting hall.

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

After tapping this adamantine vein safely, I'm fairly sure that if I go too much further I'll go straight to the circus and disturb the clowns. Time to set up plan Airlock.

I've been playing Dungeon Keeper. It makes me really want to whip my dorfs to make them go faster...

Had that happen once in another fort when I made the mistake of leaving them on training duty (ALL legendaries even) while I had them change out the iron armor for steel. It was a wierd freak accident which one dwarf bit the others hand and then threw it the other dwarf that way, the thrown dwarf died.. The thing is that it didn't show up as sparring and the thrower didn't get any bad thoughts over it or be accused of a crime.

I THINK you can with DFhack?

You should be able to regenerate it, the history might come out slightly different, but the embark geography will be there.

Edit: A quick look at the DFhack manual doesn't show any way to do so. If there is a way, someone more knowledgeable with DFhack would know.

Yeah. It was a lucky shot. I need to default all my world gen presets, because I have a crapload of ungennable parameters. That was lucky because it genned one world out of 10,000 rejects

Well, I mean, technically 2 out of 20,000 rejects. I forgot to disable aquifers on the first one :P

Can't you export the seed? You can recreate the same world if you have the same seeds. Go to legends, export the legends and look for world gen parameters.
