Stockpiles of green goo.

[Random_Dragon]

It was inevitable. Meanwhile, back in kobold kamp...

Anyone tried this idea of foiling climbers via an all-around moat and a high enough wall using blocks? :V

[Cptn Kaladin Anrizlokum]

Aren't Human Lawgivers supposed to show up with the caravan? It was four years before he showed up, and then this year he showed up but there is no caravan?
I've been a great trade partner... I've given them piles of free crafts!

[Random_Dragon]

...why are the lungfish hovering in midair?

[Cptn Kaladin Anrizlokum]

I noticed the Human Lawgiver was flashing, so I looked in his inventory and he was wearing a dwarf bone crown.
I'm not alright with that. And apparently his guards weren't either, as they have done nothing to stop my military from cutting him to ribbons.

Yep, he was a vampire. Or at least using a pseudonym and wearing trophies from dead dwarves, humans, and magpie men. Mostly magpie men actually...

Elven hybridization experiments, they were crossed with flying fish to create the perfect amphibious waranimal but the abominations couldn't be contained and escaped. Just be glad they got away before the elves could further cross them with piranhas.

Just lost my fort to a desert titan, it had knock-out gas for breath and basically just one-shotted everyone as they ran up to meet him.

Now I'm wishing I could order my bowkobolds to kill the little buggers. ;w;

Built a water system that a) cleans people entering the fort, b) mists the tavern/dining room, c) fills a cistern for the well, d) muds an underground pasture, e) muds an underground tree-farm, and f) drains into the caverns. FPS only dropped from 197 to 194 from before it was operational vs now.

This Dwarf-getting-trapped-in-trees thing is starting to REALLY annoy me.  To me this is a bug and is starting to ruin my current Fortress and story.   

[bennerman]

get DF-hack and use Warn-starving. Should atleast save your dwarves

[Etc_Guy]

I finally got a fort off the ground and my dwarfs are surviving well. I have a trap-loaded entrance to I can profit off anything stupid enough to come into my land. It seemed to work a little too well.



It's not even finished yet

I have no idea what to do with crundles and trogs that have been caught, they can be butchered and eaten no problem and (the crundles at least) can't be tamed, they don't have any knowledge by anyone so they probably can't. The troglodytes can be taught to learn at slow rate but I don't have a library yet. They aren't scared of my dwarfs so I may have a chance to indoctrinate them. A caravan is also here so I can ship off the buggers and maybe go elsewhere so I don't have to care about them anymore.

Magma is a must, silver, gold, iron, and copper is useless at the moment and I need to go splunking to find some..... but something got some ant people and a troglodyte.



Yeeeah, I'm scared that what got them may also kill my spluenkers. It could have been a giant cave spider, or worse, A FORGOTTEN BEAST!

[Shurikane]

I'm failing to make any progress on my fort due to the game incessantly crashing.  I must've spent the past two hours going through the same few in-game days trying to "jiggle" it out of its slump.

...I got a goblin swordsman visiting my tavern. This is not only the first goblin visitor I can recall encountering, but seeing as we're kobolds...

I just realized, this means BOTH of my forts, desktop and laptop, have visitors visiting a tavern that has no booze. >w<

EDIT: Ohgod. I burrowed the kobolds and tried to station my archers in the watchtower, and the goblin...walked on past one of the bowkobolds. I guess she's...friendly? To kobolds.

EDIT 2: Here to relax. With kobolds. We have no booze. We don't even have a WELL, what is WRONG with you lady?

[nickbii]

...why are the lungfish hovering in midair?

Known bug.

Don't know if anybody has any idea why they can fly, or whether they fly consistently (ie: if every embark with lungfish has flying lungfish), but it's been on Toady's to-do list since 2012 and v34.

Goblins don't drink booze (unless someone sticks it in a mug and hands it to them, apparently).

I just love it when a were creature shows up with wrestling skill. One just arrived and jumped a couple of civilians before my military could arrive. Instead of biting them over and over, it has chosen to put on a wrestling demonstration with one of them. He passed out after having his knee bent in a direction it was never designed to go, but the weretapir is continuing to grab him in various holds, and releasing him. Over and over. There has been only one bite so far, and it just did bruising. If the weretapir keeps this up for a little while, my troops might just get there in time to save the poor guy.

It's also nice when they grab a piece of clothing and start beating people with it. Oh yeah, beat up that fisherdwarf with his own silk hood. Keep beating him. Pay no attention to that axelord coming up behind you. A little longer...
