'Whoa' to both containers and broken legs.

For that viciously bad pun, I'm gonna introduce a NPC named Vlynndar just so that I can kill him of in a cruel and unusual way.
Watermelons are pretty important.

This may already have been mentioned here, but people get knocked over when a wagon rolls over them.  I'd known that they crawl over/under eachother normally, but not that the multitile wagons would cause that reaction.  Hehehe, so many ideas...

T'ing over cabinets shows Dwarves socks and shoes inside them when they're sleeping.

Even cooler, my count has put silver pikes in his weapon racks and gauntlets in his armor stands.

Awesome, hadn't noticed this. I thought the armor stands and weapon racks were only useful for defining rooms until now.

Yeah, I always find it funny when a kobold thief gets discovered by a caravan. And then mauled by the wagon.

Sometimes, when my Dorfs are exceptionally stupid again, I wonder what exactly the [INTELLIGENT]-tag does.

At one point I got a message: "Tekkud Randompeasant, Hauler has canceled store item in stockpile: Unconscious." Usually this means something bad is happening, so I immediately paused and zoomed to the dwarf in question. Only he wasn't outside getting mauled by a cougar, he was right near my meeting hall with a mangled head and spattering blood all over the hall. No berserk dwarves for months... no out of control animals loose, just a mangled head. He was carrying a door, and this led me to some possibly incorrect assumptions.

EDIT: and sized but unclaimed bedrooms eventually get claimed.

Kishmond, this reminds me of a Dwarf who once died while at a dining table. It said he bled to death, and it was in the starting out years with no sieges or any potential threats. I looked at the items around and there was a prickle berry there, I think it cut him quite bad and he died from it..  :-\

Just recently I've decided to play a wizard in adventure mode.

EPIC.



Yeah, theres my wizard Kar Puzzleoils standing behind the tavern beating up random animals for no reason.

Crazy wizard magic I'm guessing.

The wizard caused them to congregate around town. There are more outside of the shot(and my feild of vision).

If so, my dwarves are getting that tag. It'd make hunters better.

Err, it works a bit different in fortress mode.
