This goblin has been very busy
« on: August 08, 2008, 07:15:54 pm »

Wow. This Goblin Axeman has been hellishly busy.

So I hack this guy's arm half-off, mangling it. he loses hold of 12 Snailman leather bracelets. Which is odd, because I don't think snails have skin.

Next I slash his head off.




... Wow.

I don't think anyone could see his face beyond all those earrings. And those bracelets must have been some sort of imprompteu arm armor.

Didn't do much to save him though.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

I've had four or five occasions where some dude dropped this amount of stuff. I haven't a clue why it is; it's not always the highest ranking or best soldier in town, and it's a HUGE difference. Like most of the time, everyone else has a trinket or two and then one guy with like forty. Really strange.

Probably an unintended side effect of the world gen upgrades.

Find the guy in legend mode, and you can see how many animals they've killed. They get bling porportional to how many they kill.

This includes your own adventurers.  Roll a dude, perform a few massacres, and then retire somewhere.  When you find him again, he'll have one trinket for every kill.

I've got one knight who has two hundred and seventy-some elf items, and a similar number of assorted wild beasties.  Must be difficult to move around under all that.

Huh. Didn't know that you could get it for your adventurers.

Yup, that's him. :D

Though he could look a bit more goblin-y.

Hmmm..... Goblin Jewelry merchant? ???

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)
