Zombie monkeys stole my pants :c





All those clothing symbols on the left are, in fact, zombie monkeys with my pants. bye pants 

This is funnier than it has any right to be.  Maybe I've had a bit too much rum tonight, but I am in tears from laughing.

[StagnantSoul]

God dammit, giant tigers got enraged by my hunter, killed everyone. Embarking on a biome that's half sinister, half serene. Bringing a bunch of ewes and a ram, going to try out the textile industry after four years of not using it. I always just used leather to make my clothes, as it could double as armor producers for my lighter militia.

As far as I can tell, if an animal that likes to steal things dies, it retains that tag when it becomes undead.

[StagnantSoul]

A sworm of thralled giant kias. Had to deal with that once... Oh, the dwarfanity...

[Cryxis, Prince of Doom]

I'm tired. I took a benydril. I'm playing DF trying to get this fort to last more than a season for the third time because the same necro keeps coming back before they are even read. Finaly just started with seven fully equipped dwarves and scavenged food from previous fort attempts.


This is a serious text message I sent to a friend a minute ago...
"Nice
I'm playing DF
Waiting for day dayum necro to come back so I can finaly woop his ass and get the vengeance the spirits of my past forts deserve"

He's playing dark souls, that poor poor soul

I started up a new fortress a couple days ago. I always end up building some sort of castle or citadel on the surface for kicks. This is how it looks so far.

Anyway, I got attacked by about seven goblin archers but they were no match for my macedwarves.

Then the elven caravan came with a giraffe, which are apparently war trainable. I must have an army of war giraffes now. This is happening.

It will make an area extending from the cursor to the east (range x) south (range y) and upwards (range z) hidden, black, and below ground as though it were never revealed.

The same effect can be achieved with revflood but it can be wonky when you're trying to re-hide a specific chunk of map.

So if you were to set the dimensions of this tool to the dimensions of the map after sealing off unwanted areas, would the appropriate areas be revealed immediately by your dwarves or would everything go horribly wrong?

Sorry should have explained better, you can pick to leave areas unrevealed, do it in blocks or clean up a whole level and then do h 0 l 1 on staircases passing through it or so forth.

[StagnantSoul]

So... Uhh... Embarked on an area intersecting a tropical freshwater swamp, savanna, and shrubland, so I'm getting everything the tropics can offer, elephants, rhinoes, giraffes, giant lions-tigers-jaguars-leopards-cheetahs, gorillas, all those, and... well... Slight problem with my perfect spot...

Is that thing going to attack once I unpause? The u menu says he's a current resident. Is he on my side now? Because I really don't want to have to fight a titan with hazardous spit right off the bat, with only four copper picks and an axe for defense. I don't want to leave, either, as this is a perfect, literally perfect spot. It's flat, has a lot of trees to the north, has a river, has every type of stone layer, and has limestone, my favourite building material.


Edit: Okay, one lucky axe swing from behind while it was busy with three giant wild boars killed it. And yes, it does attack.

[utunnels]

My dorfs had successfully exposed the cavern to the sunlight.

[NJW2000]

Making my militia stand over piles of corpses to toughen them up, always fun.

Also, suddenly we have 500 dwarven wine. Did I buy this from the traders, brew it from my own farms, brew it from plump helmets bought from the traders, or some combination? I have never had over 200 of any drink before... weird.

[utunnels]

[Loud Whispers]

Do your dwarves all live on that platform?

[NJW2000]

Good grief, utunnels, how long did that take?

[utunnels]

Do your dwarves all live on that platform?

Yeah, currently they are. But there are only 6 of them since I've turned off migrants.
I will soon let them move into the cavern after the project is done.

Good grief, utunnels, how long did that take?

About 8 years with seven dorfs. Unfortunately one of them was killed by a crundle.

[utunnels]

Another two dorfs died. One was killed by a giant toad, the other by a cave crocodile.
Now only 4 are alive. Time to receive some migrants.
