Was that generated by the game? This is incredible.

It might look unreasonable in words, but I imagine it makes quite nice heraldry.

I like how everything is either falling or suspended.

Also prostrating circles.

!!cats!! is a natural result of worldgen + dwarf mode + McStumpy

It is inevitable.

As for the 10 million wombat demons - I prefer the unnumbered option. "The dwarves are surrounded by anvils". Who's gonna count 99,999,999 plump helmets?

Jesus doesn't embark in terrifying biomes, and these forums certainly count.

That moment when other dwarves are looking at your computer wall, and ALL of the adds on the link you're viewing are engravings of erotic women...

You do realize that this feature realistically took 2-3 days to make while doing other stuff, while multithreading might take 6-12 months of dedicated programming, right?

Posts like this almost make me wish bay12 had a downvote system.

To add to the post above mine, said year of programming would likely introduce new bugs on top of not actually adding anything to the game, something that I doubt Toady would be happy with. We all want multithreading, but it's rather absurd to equate it and this feature.

Blue Dwarf has been happy lately. He did some !!science!! recently. He admired a fine forum post lately. He was enraged by a forum troll recently. He was upset by the delayed release of the new version of Dwarf Fortress lately. He took joy in planning a noble's death recently.

The one hundred thousand cats are burning. The five hundred dwarves are massacring the one hundred thousand cats.

I imagine this looked like the famous battle scene in 300. Just with cats. That are on fire.

A noble just suffered a genuine unfortunate accident.
Has that ever happened before?
