I'm surprised that nobody has said "You've been encased in a block of ice" yet.

Once, I made a death-trap in Fortress mode, basic flooding trap using the river. I also built an escape route.

When I visited in adventurer, I wasn't aware that water could push you around. Like, say, past the escape route and into a room. With one entrance. And the room rapidly filling with water.

At least I know that flood traps work.

In one map I made, half of the towns were ruins because of all the wars, and somehow everybody decided to move back in to their towns - except for some reason, none of them went to the towns they actually came from. Every single person was a peasant, a consequence in living in a ruin, I guess.
Anyway, since everybody was a different civ member, You could attack little groups of them and nobody would care. Lots of fun.
Until of course, I get dogpiled by ~30 people, including children, and they broke all of my bones (and organs) one by one. Then they stole all my clothes.

Damn, could you give me the World Gen specs please? Sounds like a fun world.

You enjoy being gang-raped in a deserted, ruined building by children? What part of that is fun, you sick bastard?

Yeah, sure, why not? If it's good enough for Michael Jackson... /sarcasm

No, I was seriously talking about the repopulated ruins where no group cares if you attack another... I'm not that sick, damn. Nah, the worst I'd do would kill the children and arrange their dead bodies in a pentagram... Even if that's been done before... I think...

I set fire to an elven retreat.
I sleep about 5 tiles away, safe in the knowledge that Adventure Mode fire doesn't spread.
I wake up, on fire, wearing all kinds of !!leather!!
Wtf.

[JoshuaFH]

well, considering that time moves MUCH faster in fortress mode, the fire probably is spreading, but at a much slower rate because decreased speed of time.

No, I figured it out.
With [SEVERONBREAKS] and about fifty bajillion body parts, my elves/humanoids EXPLODE VIOLENTLY when they burn to death.
The flying body parts are subsequently on fire and burn everything in their path.
Myself included.
EDIT:This is the best example of the situation I could find.
Obviously, smoke is where child was.
Red/yellow (firey) ²s are his body parts.
The white one is a bone, previously some part of an elf.

[StrikeTheSand]

Likely a combination of both... I've made a similiar mistake. Involving fire. And Elves. Very, very pissed Elves.

[Huey]

:great shame:  I actually HAVE been encased in a block of ice, but only once. It figures that the river I was trying to cross would freeze solid while I was in the damn thing! I'm reasonably certain that the season changed while I was swimming, so now I try not adventure in the fall, on the off-chance that I will forget, and pull the same stunt.

Also, wolves in packs are very nasty.

[CobaltKobold]

I ha'en't yet been killed by wolves. They go down to a good axing/what ha'e you and I'm always alone.

I haven't played as Ad'enturer that much though.

[CyberCube]

This was an earlier version, so the megabeasts didn't have the 200 years of training that they do now, but anyway, I decided to put most of my starting points into shield and armor skill. After slaying tons of megabeasts and even removing a demon from a goblin fortress before it could move, right after killing their elite bowmen, I finally decided to pursue a quest one of the mayors had given me shortly after I began my adventure. The target? A bronze colossus.

I found it wandering around next to some hills, far in the eastern part of the world. I knew I was at a disadvantage, as my spear wouldn't be able to cause it pain. Regardless, the fight went on for at least fifty turns, with the colossus taking moderate injuries and me not taking any damage at all, but getting tired once in a while. Then I got the bright idea that standing on the hill would give me a height advantage. And, of course, I forgot to change my combat preferences to Stand Ground.

No, let me rephrase that. I thought about it, but then I decided not to for who knows what reason. As a result, I fell one z-level, got stunned, and got my head smashed.

[regerstreen]

The first time I played, I jumped into water, drowned.

The second time I played, I started out with some swimming skills. So I proudly jumped into water, right into two aligators. Last thing I read was that one of the aligators spitted out my head
