Yes, that would be great! Sentient steamtanks guarding your fortress?

And I have tried it. They've wiped out one of my fortresses, plus TWO reclaim parties at the same location.

Does my creature work?

As you journey to the center of the world, feel free to read the death announcements of those dwarves that suffer your neglect.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the cosmos. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips, I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my veins. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.

They worked, but they didn't move. It just took a small amount of tweaking, though.

Edit: Perhaps this could explain their impossible sapience? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreadnought_%28Warhammer_40%2C000%29

What needed changing? I wasn't sure whether or not the Bodytype of wagon was complete for animal use.

I got the joke, I just thought it sounded like an interesting explanation.

My bad. I just edited the existing wagon based on what you posted, and I must have missed something. Copied and pasted yours, and it worked fine.

Now I feel the urge to start playing Warhammer again. The nostalgia I felt from reading the bit on Venerables is too much to ignore.

The wagons do what they do on their own, all I needed to do was add some basic pet tags and an attack.
