I'm going to update the fort to 42.06 on my turn

Opinions?

Sigh…
Back in my day we had proper forgotten beasts. None of this namby-pamby nonsense! I mean, I don’t want a Supergoat or anything, but it would be quite nice to be “slayer of something-or-other” and have people actually impressed by it.

I have an objection to his death. Please wall him up in a room on a diet of water and raw plump helmets. I have a use for him. Whens my turn?
Make him a farmer and give him his own personal living quarters.
It's like astville all over again

I vote in favor.  Yes.

I'm new to succession forts in general, yes, but do all forts designed by multiple overseers inevitably degenerate into a body-filled labyrinth of chaos and despair like this? Or is this just a Battlefailed thing?

There isn't much middle ground between killed-by-dragon and never-seen-by-dragon.

I vote no. Updating will cause a lot of bugs.

I vote that we give it a shot, unless there are known bugs that would kill the fort.

Welcome to Doomforests, please, choose a cult of your liking or head to the overseers office to register your own cult. Religious freedom is pride of this fortress!

[OOC] Doomforests save is compatible with 42.06, checked it before. [/OOC]

In the spaceless void

Gogol meets with Dark One again. Strange nature of this realm makes everything infinite in size, up to paradoxical dimensions.

- The time has come... - Gogol begins ominously.

- Let's begin now! - with excitement Dark One starts to chant an eerie incantation.

Back in Doomforests

The Klan-Master was assigned to butchery work. He took a pig that queen yelled at just a minute ago and took an axe. Just as he wanted to cleave it's skull, striking in between it's eyes, the pig spoke:

- Stop mortal!

- What!? - Dark Two was horrified, he couldn't butcher that pig.

- Behold my power!

The pig started to move it's convulted legs. Dimmension doors to hellish realms shot all across the room, dreadful souls of the damned tried to make their way to Doomforests and shred everyone to pieces, but they were stopped by pig's power. Pig shrieked out a sinister incantation and a stream of red energy striked Dark Two, easily passing his magic protective armor. This must be a really powerful pig, as it's magic got through soap protections.

- You will know what to do when the time comes! - the pig burns with chromatic flame, but it's not hurting it. A moment later it's just an ordinary, stinking swine.

Whoo! Excitement!

My sincerest condolences to the family of Gwolfski. He will be missed much more than the Giant Gray Langur who was the other victim.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Imic! You’re going the wrong way!

Well, many congratulations to Vabôk, who was the first to stop following Imic’s leadership and actually attack the minotaur, stabbing its hand and knocking it unconscious with the first hit. She made quick work of it after that.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Please be interesting!
Too much to hope for, I guess.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Webs! I’m sure our brave soldiers will deal with it…
Hang on, that’s the cavern I haven’t yet sealed off. I guess I have no choice.
Everyone up! Soldiers to the caverns!
I regret to announce that the Wood Intern was in the caverns at the time of the attack and is probably being torn apart as we speak.
His heroic sacrifice may allow others to escape.

Oh. My mistake. It seems that the Wood Intern is in an area inaccessible from where Osman is. As is the fortress entrance. Emergency over! Just a drill!

Human merchants!
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Sounds like a good idea.

Frankensteen’s resting in hospital, having (I think) been attacked by a tantrumming child.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Hang on, is that another hospital? Good grief.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Sigh.

I think that cavern’s sealed… You know what? Pest control.




AARGH!
It’s all going horribly wrong! I’ve just noticed (OOC: 1.5 hours of almost continuous running later) that the cavern was not sealed, meaning that the tunnel I’ve just sent many of our soldiers into so that they can get to the forgotten beast is not where they need to be.

Planned path to forgotten beast:

Problem encountered by miner on way to clearing path to forgotten beast:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Well, the miner (Mate888) escaped unharmed, despite falling asleep within about twenty metres of the thing, rather that going to the burrow as I said!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Ah. Maybe not unharmed, but he’ll probably recover…


Spoiler (click to show/hide)
You’re meant to be fighting a forgotten beast, not climbing a tree!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
OK, maybe Mate888 won’t recover. Still, rather him than me.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It’s all fun and games ‘til someone loses an eye.

I would cut my losses and seal it in at this point, but I’m not actually sure how to seal this cavern against a flier.

Aban Zursùlzas is dead.
Mate the 888th is dead.
Rovod Vabôkenkos is dead.
Såkzul Stinthädnakas is dead.
Vabôk Olinidor, minotaur slayer, is dead.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Right. I’m retreating to here. Everyone who can get out of the caverns, do so. Let the swift not wait for the slow.
A stand will be made here, which hopefully will allow the masons to sort out the building works.
Scrap that, even that’s not secure against fliers.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
That should be easier.
Now for the masons to get to work.

OOC: I know it's not as important as I'm making it sound, but I've not had much else happen, so I had to make something of it.

So what does the syndrome do? Has anyone been treated? Does it rot everything or just what's been exposed?

It seems to knock people out, turn everything yellow and then kill them. There may be intermediate stages, but I was distracted by forgotten beast.

Holy shit... Mate888 died.  That was... a seriously old dwarf, in terms of this slaughterhouse.

Too bad about the smell.
