Beat a hydra to death with its own skull. "This doesn't seem physically possible!!"

Yeah, that's what he said.

I can't remember the next line, though.

What I said WAS the next line. It went something like this.

"And then she beat him to death with his own skull."
"What? That doesn't seem physically possible."
"Yeah, that's what he said." *cut to flashback*
"This doesn't seem physically possible!! Bleargh."

...And then I can't remember the next line after that. :P

This is a fox skull helmet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of fox bone and is encircled with bands of fox leather. This item is haunted by the ghost of Alfador Angrorung the fox.

Neither do they regrow the heads to match the Mythical Hydra ... well not yet. We can still hope for another day and update.

Course, were it to match a mythical hydra we would need cauterization implemented, or it would survive a great deal longer.

The obvious solution is to recruit a bunch of wrestler meat-shields and have each of them latch onto a throat.

The less obvious, but more profitable solution:

Probably nothing exciting, just updating the way corpses are noted down in the game's 'inventory' of objects.

If there's something exciting usually Toady tells us about it so we can go nuts in this thread without him having to point it out.  :D

I doubt it. He's still got like 500 dev items to go before he's even finished the new body and wound systems.

Was a Feb release date ever the plan? I thought I'd always heard April.

There wasn't ever a release date plan per se, but late March / early April still looks like a good estimate.

Someone, I think PTTG?, was having fun charting the progress a little while ago. Maybe someone should make another prediction chart based on the more recent numbers.

One day Dwarf Fortress will be detailed enough so as to allow scientists to extrapolate the future.

Of course, the simulation would involve the DF simulation, ad infinitum, causing the computer to explode.
