Wait no longer!
The
forced-to-participate brave warriors of Badwild prepare themselves for their hardest battle yet! The sounds of the demon horde grow louder, the only miner who ever did anything
against for this fort flees upwards out of the spire towards safety, and the rabble of epic warriors stands and waits.
And then the demons roll over them like nothing.
and then the gif breaks, again. T_T
I'm not sure if my forces even took out a single one of them, much less several of them. Lets have a look at the old dead list, hm?
We killed exactly one.
On the plus side, while looking at the very long list of deaths, I found out that we actually killed a dwarven king sometime along the way.
Time for the second phase to come into play! The demons bang on the three sets of stone doors while I wait for my miner to arrive and open up the caverns.
I also wall up the only overland entryway into the fort. There's still a path in, through the caverns, but that's all part of the plan. One poor sap gets walled outside, but I'm not waiting for him to crawl his depressed butt in here.
The demons finally get through, and rush the
second doorway, the one with our trapped guy behind it.
He actually gets a nice hit in before dying, though.
And then the plan takes into effect! The demons start hunting down every single thing in the caverns and beating the crap out of it.
One of them also lights things on fire, because just metaphorically lighting the caverns on fire wasn't enough.
Then, a hero comes!
It gets instantly killed, and then reanimated a few times and instantly killed again and again.
Did I mention that there's some children playing down near the caverns where all this is happening?
In morbid hindsight, I wonder if they were waiting for their parents to come back upstairs after fighting the demons. Man, I feel guilty now. Screw you, children.
Oh wait. Nevermind. The plan is still working perfectly, though. With how flight and pathing works, these clowns won't go into the fort unless they coincidentally go up onto the ledge while chasing some cavern creature, and then the said creature dies. This keeps it a slow trickle, which means whatever warriors didn't kill themselves at the mass-suicide booth can kill a few demons before they themselves get killed.
Those demons soon come up to the barracks.
The battle actually goes in favor of the goblins, thanks to superior numbers and the fact that all of those demons were made from ash.
At this point, population is down to 7, and three of them are insane.
After a while of demons running around murdering random cavern wildlife, I get bored with the carnage and tear down the wall that keeps them from pathing into the fort. The horde streams in and murders everyone.
Except... wait, my game isn't over? Who's left?
... Ah. The girl who tore down the wall fled into the caverns.
She too, eventually gets chased down, and is finally cornered in the battle corridor.
She's a legendary lasher, yet has no gear other than a silver halberd.
Remarkably, she kills
eight demons before she gets overrun. How that happened is anyone's guess. They were all soot and snow, but still, that's astounding for a warrior that is merely legendary + like 8.
So ends Badwild. Mission success. Well, it was sort of impossible to fail since dying is literally like the only thing that is guaranteed to happen. But y'know, take what you can get. Anyways, here's a gif of the entire fortress.
And they all
died horribly lived happily ever after.
