Other monsters crowded around me, continually attacking.  I treated them politely, offering the edge of my razor-sharp sword; but the feast, I think, did not please them.

Remove a dwarf's leg, leave it to rot and then replace the lost bones!

Anyway, I had my very first vampire, not counting the Scarlet sisters and the students at Cross Academy [lol, anime], who drained the blood out of my fisherdwarf. I decided this would be a prime time to find out how !!JUSTICE!! worked.

I then immediately imprisoned the first dwarf on my list - my Legendary +5 Miner, for 198 days as a murder suspect  >:(. The vampire decided to kill everyone else, and when she went for the miner:

SWISH!   ;) CLUNK!  :D

funny enough, before I lost the fort to tantrum spiral (in defense mod, I was half way equiping my squad in masterwork steel everything) I was training a near legendary armorer when one of the legendary miners got snuffed. I decided to wait and see, then selected the armorer to check his preferences and then :
ex general, ex grand oracle, ex ex ex ex of half page of civs and govs...
I jailed the sucker in the arena then smelted his two masterwork steel helms just to make him cry and go berserk... training dummy for the marksdwarves...

Yeah, I thought they would go apeshit about the miner's death since he was here from the beginning of the fort but as he was always lost in remote tunnels digging for glory, his death went unnoticed (ha? the creepy guy died? serves him well!)...
but when they lost THAT bloodsucking f(r)iend to tragedy...
the hunter was the first to snap... He interrupted his meal halfway through his masterwork roast, drew his crossbow, shot the legendary cook in the head, and started to loose at the bystanders... by the time the militia got there four dwarves laid in pools of blood and roasted tallow... after that there was a chase in the tree farm, tough luck the game was a warrior with one of the masterwork battle axes. he ran around (one z level of cleared soil is flippin big when there is a psycho with a battleaxe to find and dispatch) took on the militia men one by one then got shot... with only two survivors in the militia I decided to sit back and eat my dinner watching it...

I must add that soundsense is a great thing to have...

Find a beautiful site for a fort, with a volcano, little bit of mountains, no aquifer, stream.
Sweet, civ name, Wheels of war. Fuck yes.
Prepare carefully.
Alright. Hmm. Let's hit 'v'... Oh shit that was 'e'.
You have arrived!

Best face-palm moment I had, was in setting up an atom smashing trap for zombies. After putting a cat in an airlock as bait, I linked all the bridges to pressure plates and got ready to let the zombies in.

Then I order the level flipped, sit back, and watch the zombies enter. They immediately path up the access tunnel I'd forgotten to seal off, bypassing all the traps, and eat the kitten. Also I had no way of flushing them out of the system so the whole project was abandoned :p
