Bloodthirsty raccoon
« on: July 24, 2009, 08:10:21 pm »
So the Dwarven Liason arrives, missing a leg.  Thankfully, he's SUPERDWARVENLY TOUGH, so he's able to hop about on the one leg pretty good.  He jumps a few spaces, passes out for about half a second, then jumps again, and repeats.

He makes it about halfway to my fort by the time I'm trading.  I lose track of him to designate stockpiles for everything I just bought, and then I get tons of "interrupted by raccoon" messages.

So I look, and behold, a NAMED raccoon is chasing my Dwarves.  So I think uh oh, which one of my Dwarves is dead already...  But they're all there.

So I look for Stumpy the Liason.

He's scattered all around about 5 different tiles.  Chunks everywhere...  His corpse further along, he still tried to make it to my fort while being ripped apart.

The odd part about all this is that after the raccoon killed the liason, it seemingly charged right through the only entrance to my fort, which is a 5x10 bridge, and started harassing my Dwarves.

Once an animal gets a taste of Dwarven flesh, does it become more aggressive?

Also, I hate not being able to specify what the Dwarves should trade me :|

From my observations, this does indeed seem to be the case. Dwarven flesh must be delicious.

I understood nothing, contributed nothing, but still got to win, so good game everybody else.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

But what about the Elf contamination of the dwarves? (Particularly the military dwarves.)
