Thought of a morbid self challenge game play mode. Dwarf Survivor. Play normally, with one exception, make a quick usable death chamber. As soon as you have enough dwarves for a mayor, you enlist the mayor, station him in the death chamber, pull the lever, no more mayor. Every time your dwarves elect a new mayor, into the death chamber he goes! Doesn't matter who they mayor is, or how important. Champion fighter, farmer, brewer, only guy who knows how to use a pick, the mayor must die as soon as they are elected! (Bonus points if the mayor is a mom with a baby, and friends with every person in your fort)

Another challange you can do;

Madhouse; 20-50% of all your dwarfs have to be "mad" (Starve them long enough, throw corpses at them) and locked away, but still be kept alive somehow.

i thought insane dwarves would always die eventually (melancholy and stark raving mad won't eat or drink, I'm not sure about berserk but I'd guess that'd be the same)

[Phazer]

hmm if you remove that dwarves have to drink and eat cant the berserkers stay alive forever then?

a legendary berserk hammerdwarf with full adamant armor and adamant hammer.

that would be funny to see.

[ThtblovesDF]

Keep them tantruming, but supplyed enough to stay at that state

[LegoLord]

Berserkers fall prey to the same mysterious infliction of needing food and drink yet refusing to obtain either.  It makes putting elven merchants in an arena rather difficult.

Does this mean if you add NO_EAT and NO_DRINK to elves you could keep an asylum of babbling elves?

You know I thought the same thing, but I had this one poor bastard of a Furnace Operator chained up for some failed mandate, he went insane sometime after he was chained up (he was already extremely unhappy) and he got the "stark raving mad" type that has him naked and all.

I think the caretakers of prisoners "feed" them and although they don't feed or drink for themselves, your bored random lye maker will FEED the insane dwarf food and water.

So the result is a deranged, useless, insane, naked dwarf being kept alive forever on the end of a chain.

[Phazer]

until his time in jail expires?

[Marko]

All good things must come to an end?

[Phazer]

nope. killing elves NEVER gets old

[Neruz]

Given enough time even that starts to lose it's shine.

[Shoku]

Given enough time even that starts to lose it's shine.

The problem is not with killing elves but with you.

You've gone down some path that dead ends so you need to back up and do something differently is all. Forget what you know and such.
