Suddenly Babies, EVERYWHERE!
« on: November 10, 2008, 08:59:51 pm »

so i created the 1x1 meeting area to get all my dwarves to become legendary very quickly. some of you may call it cheating but that is besides the point. almost every one of my dwarves is married which is nice because that halves the amount of beds i need, BUT I HAVE 50 BABIES IN A FORT OF 170 PEOPLE! every damn female is carrying around a baby. How long do babies take to grow into peasants?

the wiki says they are children through age 12.

my fort of 232 has 49 children. 6 of those to the duke and duchess.

Eat babies, and you'll be happy happier, immigrants > babies.

And I hope this doesn't spark something...

I can't see how that wouldn't start something. everybodies married, everybody has a baby, kill all babies you're guarenteed to have bunches of riots simultaneously compounded with friend and spouse deaths. Kill the babies, but isolate the adults in a chamber with sharp objects and record the results.

Babies, the other thesis material...

Lets see if the magma transportation system works, it definitely is more exotic ( pleases the masses ) and probably more deadly, but it is a'hell'ov'a more fun!


New; 33. Science!
New; Useful for Babies!
New; Useful for Purples!

And why is this a bad thing, erm, WorkerDrone?

It's either the Thesis, or this kind of discussion, so- what's the dilemma?

Its a common name.

And I find it quite strange how all you people can enjoy stuff like killing babies and breeding mermaids to commit genocide on the kids to sell their skulls, ect.

But of course I realise the reason is that your all insane and delightfully evil.

You should see me IRL, it seem like I'm in a constant weed-fest, but I think my optimism is growing to large.

Have you heard of the SimsTM Franchise, well this is like The SimsTM , you're an omniscient being controlling the lives of many beings, and you can either let them survive, or let them entertain.

HAHAHAHHAHA! I think i'll lock all the children of my fort in one room, and release goblins in there. All I have are theives yet, yes, but they are still deadly at times!

And you Diggums! Your the worst of them all! Well, in terms of how evil you are, your the best of them all, but that makes it look like your doing well for yourself.

And yes I know the sims, and its true, I enjoy making a dwarf to stupid things, like charge a squad of marksgoblins with no weapons or armour like the best of them just cause I 'felt like it'. But I never truly thought of the correct way to commit dwarfy genocide, or harvast the organs of babies after releaseing mercyless goblins on them. Then again, none of my forts live long enough to try.

I could very well be evil myself!

One, I have no sympathy for non sentient AI lemmings.

Though we may be twisted, it shouldn't be confused with evil.
You hypocrite, you're helping with the death toll too.
And immigrants seem to be more common/practical than babies.
And the carcasses are useful for the macabre.

I suggest ballistae, drop towers, spike pits, beard fighting, arenas, drowneries ( enclosed and flow exposed ( rivers ) ), ejection systems, catapulting ( via bridges + target area ( a wall above a pit ) , the room of doom ( fill in the danger ) , ...
