So, the invaders felled the titan, but not before it claimed a great many of their lives. A few invaders managed to get past the trapline and smashed the trade depot, but that's okay, it was wood anyways. Though my dogs gave their lives valiantly, I lost no dwarfs. The siege was broken utterly; all that remains now are 3 trolls. One of them is unharmed and hasn't gotten himself off the map yet; the other two are a bit more of an issue. One has her right upper leg and both her lower legs mangled beyond recognition, while the other is missing his left horn, has a right upper leg that is mangled beyond recogniton and has his right lower arm, right lower leg and left upper leg fractured. Normally, I'd be happy to let them bleed to death, but they're INSIDE MY FORT and everyone refuses to go near them.

a werelizard managed to kill my captain of the guard, and bite one of my civilians before being pummedled to death with goblets by the military.
I drafted the poor sod straight from the hospital into the military, so she'd be surrounded by 'friends' when she turned.

Sadly, when she turned, she managed to latch on to her 2 month old baby's head, and rip it off before being dispatched by her squad mates. Oh, and she also put a chockehold on her 10 year old son who had rushed to avenge his baby sister's death, and strangled him to death. So very DF.

My world has passed into The Age of Goblins. My slaughter of 2 semi-megabeasts and a titan no doubt brought this about. I wonder to myself: can I kill enough goblins at my fort to end their age?

Oh, speaking of goblins, here's another siege. 300.....that's almost as many as the traps in my near-complete trapline. Hm, I think I need a bigger trapline.....

[greycat]

My militia commander, of her own free will, by the grace of Armok and Ugath (local deity of dreams and nightmares), has removed a cap from her head, and donned a steel helm!

I didn't even have to specify "replace clothing"!  It's a miracle!!

[Iamblichos]

Inkblots has lost over half its population several times.  This is... unusual for my forts.

The first time was to a flying FB.  Eh, it happens.  Webby flying beakless sparrow, one eye, three tails, all trouble.  Got tired of slaughtering everything (EVERYTHING) in the first cavern and flew in through the damn well.  Militia was killed, but enough dwarves dogpiled it that it ended up dead.

Second time was to a goblin bowman siege group.  Been a long time since I saw the dwarves do the Headless Chicken Dance.  During the time of .40.X, I seem to have forgotten how to prepare for real, honest-to-god goblin sieges.  This should be fun.

[TheFlame52]

Remember when I said Admiredbrass would fall if I got another victory like that?

I got another victory like that.

Everyone is dead but one kid, playing in his room.

[cochramd]

The trolls and beakdogs absorbed the brunt of the falling stones, allowing the goblins to get through and wreak havoc. Oh well, time for another fort....

[Dozebôm Lolumzalěs]

Which is why you use drawbridges and cage traps.

[Bouchart]

A parakeet woman bard visited my fort, and just flies in mid-air a good distance from my fort.  Wonder if I should report it as a bug.

[cochramd]

Which is why you use drawbridges and cage traps.

And where is the fun in that? Nowhere, I tell you! Still, for my next fort, I think I'll make a failsafe magma-lock to kill everything that the trapline doesn't....

[Glyphon]

I cried.

Goblins attacked my 50ish strong fort, every animal and all but two people survived, a mother and her son who was incapacitated during the slaughter. for two weeks that mother did nothing but look after her son in his bed and in the end he died anyway, after which she just walked slowly out the fortress, through all the still, silent blood and bodies and drowned herself...

I stopped playing after that.

[Rumrusher]

so started a dwarf fort on a glacier

had it get wrecked by zombie Puffins,

returned to the place as goblins and walled them in outside of one fishergoblin.

who got murdered by a rotting cat, who now keeps killing yetis on the surface.

I’m going to start a inn at the top and see if I can sacrifice more people to the murdercat
oh and one of the dead dwarves turn into a ghost soo that's going to be FUN.

[Lordhermitcrab]

Suddenly out of nowhere, all my dwarves decide that it's a great idea to completely ignore all the food that needs to be put away. Excellent.

Yes, all the fields full of withering plants, the entire refuse pile full of masterwork apple roasts and rotting fish, because of you, dwarves.

I don't know what's going down here. The food stockpile isn't even full yet.

[Amperzand]

My dorfs kept doing that, too. I'm still not sure why, since it turned out that altering hauling settings only fixed it for a short while.

[Monkeyfacedprickleback]

One of my dorfs got possessed and made an artifact statue. I'm going to put it into the centre of my non-denominational temple... as soon as i figure out how to get it out of the damn wheel barrow.
