It's down on the right

WEASELS RIPPED MY FLESH

oh, don’t know how I missed that

[scriver]

Terrible choice of colour for that placing

[Bralbaard]

I just started a new embark, and my whole embark team, animals included starts out on top of a tree on the edge of the map.

With the yak and weasel incident, I have seen the same type of event when a wild boar was fleeing from something and it ran through a cavavan, and ran too close to one of the wagon beasts. The wagon beast attacked the boar and the wagon exploded. The "something" that had frightened the boar was chasing another boar and never came near the wagons. The frightened boar never attacked the wagon beast, but it might have come out of its condition of fear while it was near the wagon.

My king has arrived. He's 27 and an arrogant sod. He's also marked as "Prisoner" for a job and white, vs purple. Seems like a bug.

Maybe it's just a revolution in making, and he temporarily escaped his captors. Better decapitate him to be sure it ends as it should.

[pisskop]

You would deny the people their right to see him tried?

The only reasonable thing to do is to send him off to fight for glory!

Sounds like there's a story behind that.

I am currently attempting to domesticate capybara. This is my first time domesticating animals, and I think it is going alright. I have 5 capybaras in a pen with varying levels of training. I am waiting for a baby bara to show up to fully domesticate the species. Hopefully my dwarfs will be overwhelmed with their new capybara pets, or I become a factory for capybara leather shoes. Maybe a mix of both!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

if ya use same animal trainer, ie. level one dorf up, animal knowledge will progress faster.

My new 5x5 embark with null.stress dwarfs, has a river with two branches. Building inbetween the branches, for the moat effect, area does not freeze.  The aqua layers were seriously bugged, I had to use dfHack to dry all aqua in order to dig down. A moose trampled my hunter, because instead of refilling his quiver the naughty boy, started meleeing the moose, according to logs.

Alr+f4, and then scumload. Removed moose, with dfHack: exterminate this. Progress has been made, just recieved 2nd migration wave. 5 miners, 6 hunters, children are all mechanics. 1 named grazing pet, exterminate this. no named pets.

4 guilds have formed, made no promises to them as of yet. Really exciting with 2 dwarf min for guild/temple and 5 dorf min for priest, change this anytime in d_init. Helps a dull game, gain life.

Im utterly screwed my map will not unreveal. I wanted to see if I had any good gemstones. Now, I guess I can design rooms with engraved gemstone pillars.

@Knutor If you unpause the game after using dfhack reveal, unreveal doesn't work anymore. Dfhack revlood does.

It turns out that, in addition to being absolutely lethal, minecart grinders have the fun side effect of frequently blowing enemies apart by slamming them into walls. This means that they leave behind stacks of bones when allowed to rot. Normally ethics would prohibit dwarves from using those bones, but the corpses of undead aren't treated the same way as normal sapient corpses. The result is that my dwarves will happily pick up that stack of "dwarf speardwarf corpse bone" and use it for crafting. Pretty much every artefact my fort produces is now decorated with some combination of human, goblin, and dwarf bone (the elves are already extinct in this world).

It's kind of fitting given that most of my dwarves are now necromancers. Although I really need to figure out a reliable way to make them drink. The slowdown from lack of alcohol is pretty severe.

Oh, and I've run into a fun semi-bug with some pet giant cave toads. I made the mistake of allowing females to be claimed as pets while caging all the males. Every few months the toads give birth, and since they're adults from birth, any newborn males immediately get the females pregnant again, thus continuing the cycle. Hopefully some lucky RNG rolls will result in all-female litters in the near future.

[knutor]

@Urist, tyvm. Giving it a whirl.

Those rapidly breeding Toads make great siege fodder bait. Some are quite big, I pitty their mother.

Amxu Arstruktongmul, Ghostly Goblin Performer has risen and is haunting the fortress!

Hadn't seen that one before.

Most of my current military is goblin immigrants.  None of them seem to die.
