We need a wall along the Elvish border
« on: October 29, 2016, 11:08:55 pm »

They're bringing herbs, they're bringing cannibalism, they're hippies; though some, I assume, are good kings.

Urist won't admit there's a problem, he simply conforms to their environmental mandates and it's really causing us to lose out in trade with goblins when we can't have our Legendary Wood Crafter mass producing on the scale that they are allowed to, all our woodworking is being outsourced.

You can build a wall, but they'll just fly over it on their giant eagles.

Now, while I like the booze, the nature, and the unicorns they have, I got to agree their desire for non-wooden items is annoying, though encourages you to not waste all your wood when there's more renewable options.

Not if one end is attached to the sky.

They will use their elfy powers to grow a tree that tears it down.

This thread needs a post-it note drawing of a dwarven Donald Trump.  Hopefully the artists will grace this thread.

Well, not a post-it, but still something.

Good Lord, I've never had to look at his chin before. I've never noticed how flabby and lumpy it is. He should think of growing a beard in real life. I think it'd compliment him better than having that quivering wasteland bare.

Trump has placed a mandate for a wall.

Wait, what colour are mandates given in? I haven't played in a while.

Bad hombre elves and nasty humans. They claim that he is friends with Snagamir Putin the goblin lord on the other continent because he remarked that he'd like to get better ties with them.

Theologians also state that besides flying the wall wont stop elf sympathisers tunneling in illegal goods including saplings, flower chains and ideological drivel books affecting the youth of the dwarves. These tunnels have rail-carts, lighting, heating, plumbing, everything and connect to a small building on the outskirts of the mountain border.

The elves are beating us at the border, they're beating us on trade, I've talked to caravan guards. When was the last time we beat the humans on created wealth? I beat the humans all the time.

I tried making a df language version of The Donald's name, and the closest I got is Donad Etrunpa, which funnily enough means MassiveHair EarthCompassion.
