With [SLOW_LEARNER], dwarves probably don't sit around and talk anymore. They just stand in the same corner altogether, staring at each other, sticking their bearded lips out trying to make sounds. And giggling when someone actually says a whole word.

I have a squad right now, in my first 14 dwarves. A glassmaker commands the 'Static Blue Pillars'.

I currently have a squad named, "The Grizzly Boots."

The coolest name I have is "The Cudgels of Virtue," but he's a migrant fisherdwarf.

My worst is probably "The Constructive Romances."

my favorite squad right now is "the healing sacks". They are legendary wrestlers and I am training them on silver spears to be spear dwarves. They are the last defense. First defense is "the searing knives" (swords) and the "crystalline controllers" (hammers)

Also one of my marksdwarve's names is "the hazy chambers"

I like to slip into bear caves around midnight and gently caress the carnivore inside before leaving a small cut of fresh fish and sneaking out.

I've just noticed one of my squads is called the Balls of Steel.
The RNG outdoes itself sometimes.


Man, that's just... AWESOME!

Make'em some elite last resource force.

A cannon fodder squad named "The Bears of Punching", second only to the name "The Eternal Disembowelment", which leads me to believe that they actualy suck.

If it takes an eternity to disembowel someone you don't deserve to be a member of a Dwarven Military.
