[Dame de la Licorne]

So, I started a new fort recently and set up a catch-all stockpile to bring the stuff inside as soon as possible.  The first thing the dwarves decided to grab was the anvil.  I have a feeling I know what they want to be doing.   

What every-day-type things have your dwarves done that are noteworthy or interesting, depending on the circumstances?

[Kagus]

Umm...   I had a mason back in the 2D version that went around splattering deer with an artifact floodgate...   He was my Elite Floodgate Squad.

Another mason looked promising, but ended up making a stone chest instead.  He managed to disassemble a kobold into its component parts with that thing, though...  I never did find all the pieces.

[Moogie]

Oh, I so wish dwarves would carry around their artifacts. I never had a chance to know such joys.

wel ive had a normal non millitary dwarf getting pissed off at the incoming siege
and single handedly kill every single one of them.

[Jetman123]

Great. Now I want to make adamantine floodgates, abandon my fort and throw them at people in adventure mode. Thanks.

Dwarves who had their food supply dwindling , I remember, once mined out all the soil first. Either they were lazy, tired, or really wanted an underground farm. I'm betting on the third.

I remember that one of my woodcutters seemed to always be discovering thieves and snatchers, and he'd murder them with his axe as soon as he found them.

The back entrance to my fort was via a long single tile wide ledge a few z levels above a river that flowed through a canyon, so i put a random muskox there on guard duty (well, to alert me, really).

he spotted a koblold who was sneaking in, but before the kobold could run away, the muskox kicked him off the edge. into the river

I put my jail outside the fort and a siege arrives. A full squad of 16 hammer goblins all pile ontop of my mayor while i take care of the marksdwarves with my freeze trench(degrinchinator using aquifiers instead of pumps). Then i look over to my jail and see that the prisoner is standing ontop of a pile of 16 corpses.

This guy should be launched by drawbridge into the goblin tower to slaughter the goblin rulers.  On his return, assuming he survives, he will be pardoned.

I watched a recruit throw a goblin across a pond.  It continued on a bit after it hit the opposite shore, and left a great bloody smear behind it.

Someone got an instant promotion to Captain of the Guard that day.
