Why does everyone wanna just smushem?

Seriously there's some great story potential here! Send them off on adventures that sound hilariously stupid, post about it. Who cares about a mandate or 5 if they're dressed in regal attire trying to beat goats with scepters.

In Dwarf Fortress, nobility protects you!

[TheBiggerFish]

Make it a story!  Yes!

[sirdanilot]

Definitely make a !fun! story about this, rather than just squash them under a bridge. This is awesome.

[Sanctume]

This is a great opportunity to have a squad or two composed of Barons.

As far as I know, you can still put them in a squad, equip them, and have them train / explore caverns.

Thunder (Baron) dome! 12 barons enter, one baron leaves!

Sadly we can't get them to fight outside of triggering tantrums... which I suppose you could do.  Get them to strip (military order, but leave them shield+weapon) and wall them in an area with nothing but a horde of plump helmets and water to drink.  No beds, no nothing.  Hopefully they'll start snapping and a loyalty cascade will trigger.  If anything survives... congratulations! You know have a seriously traumatived (true) baron!

[Dunamisdeos]

11 Barons, eh?

Kill them all before they kill you.

[Hvinnir]

Could you provide us any more detail than that? I'm curious to see how this situation came about. If you can't get a good picture of their family tree from just the relationships mode, could you pretty please take a look in legends mode?

I have no experience at all with legends mode and don't really have the time to get into it atm. But I could upload the savegame if someone is interested...?

Thunder Baron Dome sounds awesome! But I think I might try the Baron squad and maybe even write a story about it if something interesting happens!
This has potential

Perhaps make a tavern in there to start baron bar brawls.

Oh, I just got my second baron today. But it seems only one is shown in the noble list, so it is not too bad after all.

[Pirate Santa]

Please don't smush em. Oh please please please.
Pimped out Baronsquad sounds amazing.

[Dustin]

Ok new idea, baron squad is just used for exploring / digging, and or distracting the horde of goblins while the army comes out from behind to kill them
idk

[FantasticDorf]

Wait wait wait.

Baron-Dome.

Burrow and lock in the barons behind walls in a completely separate bastion complex with only a hatch entrance for exchanging goods from the main fort, and a hatch back at a lower level for dropping of excess goods the baron's make in return.
