Who else can't wait to maul their dwarves?
« on: April 05, 2009, 11:22:50 pm »

I know I can't! The new update is gonna have doctors, and that means we don't need to be careful about our constructions and digging because we can just have doctors fix up any booboos!

Oh man, the first thing I'm gonna do is drop a hundred dwarves off a 6 z-level tower and see how many survive with one doctor on call.

I bet dismembered limbs will not be replaceable by doctors.

Urist Austin, Axedwarf.  A dwarf barely alive.  Gentledwarves, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world's first bionic dwarf. Urist Austin will be that dwarf. Better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster.

I never get any dismembered limbs ...  :(

All my dwarves either heal completely or die. Sure a bruised spine here and there, a punctured lung that refuses to heal .. but no lost hands/feet/arms/noses/eyes .. nothing! They all just die instead.

Just tell em to wrestle some magma men.


Also, who thinks it would be awesome to have a dwarven clockwork limb?

Surely this means we must mod on extra limbs for the dwarves, so we can better study the effects of losing them!

I can't do it all on my own, no,
I know, I'm no superdwarf.

Also, many chuckles will be had, whenever you get a doctor who "needs alcohol to get through the working day". Because it's funny when it doesnt happen to you, in real life, again.

While it may sound a bit disturbing, i'd get some lolz off killing elves by throwing Xsevered dwarven penisX at them.

You know, I was wondering how long it would take for someone to plan on modding in a dwarven wang.

That's beyond even me.

This is a Adamantine Dwarven Mechanical Arm. All craftdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of blue diamond and is decorated with hanging rings of elf bone, goblin bone, human bone, and carp bone. On it is an engraving of Firefire Killslaughter the Demon and Urist McChampion in demon bone. Firefire is in a fetal position. Urist is laughing.
...
Dorf replacement limbs would be awesome.

I'm pretty sure I remember prosthetics being mentioned somewhere. At least, I hope Toady adds things like peg legs and hook hands. If used, the dwarves hand skills (mining, wrestling, etc) drop by 50% or something, but the dwarf can continue regular work.
