Ah man, I'm neurotic and possessive about my fortress already, now I got to make sure they are all thin and fit?

Anyways... I predict at least one DF player is going to get their entire fortress fat so they can make a soap industry from Dwarves.

It took 9 replies before it went somewhere horrific.

You gotta love Dwarf Fortress.

(Can you imagine an entire fortress built out of the rendered fat of dwarves?)  :-X

That's different from normal fortresses, whose grout is the soapmakers who carried the blocks into place, how?

Now that I think about it?

No difference at all.  ;D

If they're going to get fat then I guess kitten tallow roasts are out of the question... hell, anything tallow is outlawed. Vegetables for all!

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

What are these "vegatables" you speak of?  I know only of fungi and berries.

Yes, I'm sure the dwarves will enjoy dying of malnutrition as they nibble desperately at their own legs.

ok, no tallow, but meat is allowed. All dwarves are REAL MEN (even the women) and thus require lots of meat to keep up their REAL MANLINESS.

I wonder if we can rig up pressure plates to only g off at certain weight values. The malnourished plebs can move around freely but when the hammerer shows up he is dropped in the chasm by a bridge-a-pult.

I'd reserve that fate for the King, because I invariably don't like him.

For the hammerer, I'd give his fat to the wolves.

ooh. Weight based levers. I would prefer that to the current size based thing, since babies apparently are still dwarf sized. This way we could improve on classics like the mermaid strainer or the goblin pit.

Then it would appear that for the umpteenth time, the only solution is MAGMA.
