I'm just worried since I'm a metalworker (actually, I'm a miner, but I wish I were a metalworker).  Not to mention loopholes are the reason we have laws.

[WorkerDrone]

Hah. No. Your screwed.

You were talking about the mandates, right?

Also:

I am not a Killstealer! I'm merely that badass.

WorkerDrones Ego has grown to massive proportions!
Wait! It was already AT massive proportions!
WorkerDrone has been struck by Irony in his Ego!
WorkerDrone has been knocked down a notch!

[Kate Wissen]

Wow, I can either let this game crumble here, or savescum, because the winter siege did not go well for us. The only military survivor was Shoruke who was wounded durring sparring... The goblins breahed and killed and wounded far too many not to cause a tantrum spiral. (Apple, you died too.)

So call it people, I'll give you some time to respond.

Watch the tantrum spiral? Or try to make sure at least fewer die?

[Thuellai]

I'd prefer a savescum, honestly - we could let this go a while longer, it's been fun so far!

[thunderclan]

savescum

[inaluct]

Well, if it's a fortress ending tantrum spiral, savescumming is probably a good idea. If it's just everyone but a peasant and a donkey dies, it could be fun to keep going.

So... Did that steel pick help at all? Did I at least kill a macaque or something?

[Kate Wissen]

Ha, yeah, no. Noone got close enough to do much damage after the crossbowmen charged through the fort.

[Kate Wissen]

Sadly the movie is too large to put on DF Map Archive. Does anyone know a way to split it?

Anyway I savescummed and this time around we did much better, noone wounded except for a very minor brain wound to Gaweir. A writeup is coming, but the best part is just after the goblins had finished their attack a dragon shows up...

Let's see us get out of this one.

I was watching the video of my failure when I editied this the first time. It really did go that well, but I also don't have a video of this siege, apparently.

[Roundabout Lout]

Awww..... Too bad Gaweir. Now maybe we can get a couple more kills.

13th of Opal, Year 12, Town of Waspurn;

Woo, we pulled it off again! We pushed back the goblin invasion once again. Many of them fled, and in the end, their leader escaped. However, our collection of goblins and beakdogs has grown yet again. Our arena and cistern's construction are well underway, I am certain that Chaotic will be very happy when that is finished. We had to have him hide in plain sight outside during the attack. He was also very surprised to see a dragon walk into view. He got away, as did nearly everyone. Some pets were killed. One unfortunate woodworker who was cleaning up after the military was hit by the tail end of a blast of fire. But it was thanks to that woodworker that the dragon was captured. I think we were all very lucky these past few days. Indeed one could easily see it go the other way. I personally feel that this is the best outcome we could have hoped for.

-Edit 2-
Oh, after no pig iron items were made I punished a random immigrant dwarf that happened to be a metalsmith. So far, no punishment has been given.

_______________________________________________

Military Honors:

Shoruke: Wounded in practice - No action
Lyudmila: No kills this time.
Gaweir: No kills this time.
Yougie: 1 Goblin Wrestler
Bahlthier: 1 Goblin Axeman
Vasili: 1 Goblin Spearman, 1 Goblin Wrestler
Rika: 2 Goblin Wrestlers, 1 Goblin Swordmaster

Rika is the killing monster this time. Most of the goblins scattered, hopefully we can completely trap them next time, and then oh the fun we'll have!

-Edit- To be fair I didn't count how many beakdogs everyone killed.
Lyudmila - 3
Vasili - 3
Rika - 2
Yougie - 1
Bahlthier - 1
Gaweir - 0

[Kate Wissen]

Oh and for anyone interested we now have an artifact electrum battleaxe. Just putting that out there.

[muwahahaha]

Woo, slow and steady kill gains win the race.. provided you are standing at the back popping losers from safety.

One thing I noticed during the first movie... Bahlthier is carrying BOTH her kids... at once... AND a crossbow. On top of that she has managed to get a kill in both sieges. How in the hell is she able to fire the damn bow? I think she needs a medal or something for that effort.

Woot on the battleaxe.

[Kate Wissen]

I figure that she's juggling her twins and the crossbow, every other time the crossbow comes back down she loads and the next time she fires it.

[chaoticag]

As for uploading the file, you can:
1. put it up on DFFD, so we can download and play it.
or 2. send a PM to Markavian, and hope he will put it on his site.

I don't think the video can be split.

[Roundabout Lout]

We apparently fought while Gaweir was looking at shiny objects.
