an army of warcats that can be butchered into food :3, etc.
And then not only would they adopt dwarves randomly so you couldn't butcher them, but they'd also slaughter your dwarves at random.

Underground is shaping up to be super-awesome.... it's going to be fun trying to patch up all the holes that allow invaders get into my fort!

As a side note, is there going to be some kind of mechanic in place to prevent dwarves from simply flooding the entire underworld with limitless water from a brook, like people do with caves now?  It seems a bit too easy to just flood anything right now.

I believe that mechanic is called FPS. At least, it's a temporary measure anyway until everyone's computers evolve.

Your computer evolves?  I have to upgrade mine manually.

So, apparently the next version will have the ability for alchemist's laboratory reactions (among others). Anyone know if there are plans to (at least partially) fix the no sand=no glass vials issue in DF atm? If alchemist's laboratories are going to become more important, even if just for mods, it will be a real pain if it is impossible to build them in no-sand maps.

Yeah, the trick is to keep your computer in the first slot of the party and swap to your second on the first turn of combat.

I was hoping the 'sites' item would get worked on some this month, but all this time spent only mostly non-specific underground development has got my expectations of subterranean awesome all cranked up.  I just hope it comes out before school starts up again.

The sites-section consist to big parts of tieing stuff for the underground-feautures. The next month will hopefully sites and the last (subterran-) creatures. The next more interresting stuff will be the "Entity positions" in my opinion.

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)

the problem is, once we have more than one hidden fun stuff, how do we differentiate between them ?

It's mind bogglingly mad. MAD I say.

That depends on what the new fun stuff is. We could have "Hidden fun stuff" be the original, and spawn clones like "Stinky fun stuff", "Creepy fun stuff", "Hidden hot stuff", etc.
