[Day.one]

My manager goes running after an elephant and bites its tusk. The Elephant in return kicks his head, twice.
The whole scene was next to the embark caravan so all other dwarfs are horrified again and again as they haul goods inside.

I don't get it, other than something with a merchant and zombies, and an aardvark.

I can see a lungfish, and three werebeasts, and I've only ever seen the infinity symbol as a boulder, out of doors, getting in the way of my nice row of farm plots. Oh, and a dwarf, of course. The dwarf drops the lungfish, and then werebeasts arrive and surround the lungfish?  I think I'm missing something. I like the enigma though.

Carefully planned embark based on the 'wagon = three logs = 1 carpentry workshop + two training axes' trick.

Arrived on steep slope, no wagon. D:

I thought it autodeconstructed and you got the logs in those cases.  No?  It just never spawns at all?

Sorry; I screwed up one of the symbols. I updated my post with the correct one.

For those of us who don't play with symbols, can you tell us what happened?

[MobRules]

Sorry; I screwed up one of the symbols. I updated my post with the correct one.

Still looks exactly the same as last night from my end, still can't tell what's going on, other than that it seems to involve ghosts, a bolder, some water or sand, a yak, and something that's either a broken arrow or a body part.

[Paaaad]

Dwarf killed a yak in a reanimating biome perhaps?

[Max™]

I think that's supposed to be a butchers shop, and the fun of having yak parts come to life and attack you.

You, sir, are a winner. *clap, clap, clap*

Training up a new armorsmith.  Designated a melt pile next to his forge and turned off masterwork armor on it, create a keeper ple for masterworks elsewhere in the fort, and set him up creating a ton of copper greaves.

After while I designate the melt pile for reproceesing.

2 minutes later I get the message that a masterwork item has been lost.  Not sure what happened I check the pile.  That's when I notice that I'd only turned off artifact armor and not both artifact and masterwork.

A few minutes later my miserable armorsmith goes berserk and starts killing.   Tantrum spiral ensues.

I sent a squad of 5 soldiers to hunt down a Giant Cave Spider wandering around in a cavern, and they killed it very handily, however another one of those monstrosities emerged out of the gloom, so off they went again. This time round, though, one fell off a staircase and broke his arms and legs, and the GCS took down three of the rest. A busy mechanic came down into the cavern for some stone, where she encountered the GCS. She killed it in two punches. *Facepalm*

In Adventure Mode:

Dwarf Speardwarf: I yield! I yield!
Dwarf Speardwarf has bled to death.

Same guy, both messages on screen at the same time.

He made his peace with his God(s)

Also, the log updates every time you move, not as it happens.
