Topic: I embarked on 98 Kobolds (Read 4519 times)

So I embark on this really nice site with an underground river, overground river, and a magma pipe, but somehow didn't notice that there was a cavern on the site. I realized my error when I looked at the minimap and half of it was red. The cavern is inhabited by 98 kobolds, one of them a Swordmaster, another an Elite Marksman. Roughly one third of the population is military of some kind, with a large number of thieves.

Of course, there is a twist to all of it. They're all marked as friendly. However, I know that eventually one of the thieves will try to steal something, of mine and probably spark a conflict.

I also know that it will be epic.

Wall off the cavern.
Show them who's the boss.

Thing is, none of them are actually inside the cavern. It's too small. They're all milling about outside.

Wall yourself inside the cavern.
take their land and women.

Convert them to your religion and teach them your language.
Then, when they resist, kill them all?

There is all the world info for you

And there's the site. As an added bonus, the magma pipe is only a few layers down toward the south west corner of the cave complex.

I wonder what a half dwarf, half kobold looks like...A few generations later, the halfbreeds will try to resurrect their lost kobold culture, and start snatching babies.

Well this is quite normal in DF now. If you embark on a Dark Tower for example, the goblins will be friendly also.

Step 1: herd the kobolds back into the cave.
Step 2: fill the cave with magma.

Personally, if I'm going to do that, I take seven marksdwarfs, and storm the place like a small, foul smelling swat team.
