Even if he did it would not matter. Fort mode dwarvs are to stupid to harness the raw power of throwing

3x3, all temperate, three different biomes, part evil biome, part savage biome, enough trees to soil an elf's pants, has a volcano, a small aquifer, water in the caverns, two adamantine spires THERE ARE THREE MAGMA PIPES AND A VOLCANO ! PRAISE LORD ARMOK !

Also a duck. I think we should have better ducks, to be honest.

I have my own modding (nothing noticeable, I removed some redudant/pointless animals and plants, the Pleistocene mod...), plus fortress defense, plus that plant mod.

Also there are 500 megabeasts and 50 civilizations in a pocket world. And it's year 2, so no towers.

4/5 of the civilizations are hostile as well. But seeing it's DF2014 i'll probably not get sieged. Unless I get eight hydrae in a row...

Started a new fort, currently the goal is to document everything with pictures and a log of happenings so that I can write a story over it and put it up on community games. Good writing practice I would think. Definitely very different from what I did before, now I have to try to pay attention to everything to squeeze out all the little bits of drama. Quite the challenge.

Also got a breeding pair of Giant Snapping Turtles from the elves. They hatched nonuplets. Plus they can really move freaking fast when they want to.

And entire 30-man seiege of goblins was broken by three giant tortoises and a pair of war rhinos. The goblin sword and pike troops exhausted themselves beating on the turtles in their shells.

Then the rhinos noticed the goblins lying gasping for breath around the turtles went a-stompin'. My lazy elite sword unit spent the entire battle deciding who got the MW oak shield.

One turtle had his shell cut off. He has been sent down to the caverns to act as breeding stock. He will live the rest of his days in a land of sex and plenty, as is right and just for a wounded warrior.

The purple overseer hat weights heavily on one's head. Some would argue that the leadership of Doomforest is uneasy to bear for too long. Others would simply suggest that we don't craft the next overseer hat out of rutile.

Shell cut off...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Mount a siege weapon on him because only a true tank of a turtle would be able to survive through that.

That's some impressive digging to reveal a whole layer like that.

I'm pretty sure it's the DFhack "reveal" command.

I created a huge cave-in which killed all but the expedition leader.
Then the unstable floating ramps caused more mini cave in and killed some merchants and a whole group of white storks.

It turned out to be a fun hermit game.
