I'll be back from my holiday next week, so I'll probably get some pc time. It shouldn't take long to finish things off, the date of 40 years draws close. :D

Agreed. :)

I'v currently Cannal'd an area in a Glacier, and I have two dwarves - male and female - running the place. Migrants starve to death...Well, usually Dehydrate first... outside the Cannal'd area. :)

*yawn* I need an update... I'm... de-updating... :'(

Seriously though, this is probably the longest lull in updates since the thread was made. :-\

Another newbie signed on after reading the entire story. ;)

It amazes me that no one has yet tested the captain's ultimate strength in the ultimate way... There is only one way that the captain can truly ever be slain: The hammer.

Could you make an alternate save or something, get the captain convicted for something real bad, clad him in plate then see how many hammer swings he can survive? Could even make bets and everything. :P

Here's an idea! Make Nist Akath in an alternate universe generated with the same seeds and stuff, but this time, include orcs.

orc would actualy be pretty interesting. it might change the path of nist akath. after all, way back in the begining the skeletal elks were a threat. i bet orcs are alot worse then skelks

Actually, the skelks were ever present, just about, and he never knew when or where they'd pop up.  Orcs, on the other hand, send a siege a season, and it's easier to get people into a safe place in that case.

Ironblood would sweep the floor with them.

ah but what about in the start where he had to save scum because the skelk kept getting in? or when the thieves got in or any other thing like that. one opening and boom your dead. also unlike most regular creatures wrestling doesn't really do much against them and the fort was pretty much dependent on imported weapons.

Eh, I can imagine a new Nist Akath running and not being boring on some sort of super-hard-mode mods with twelve separate hostile civs four seasons a year. It's more, I think, a matter of if mayday wants to do it.

Only, I think if the hammer in question is the Hammertower of Nist Akath.

And the hammerer were either Ironblood himself (not sure how this'd work out), Morul (I give him one in ten chances of getting it right) or Armok. And even then I'm not sure.
