Verifying, if I were to embark on top of a castle and kill the soldiers there, they would return as hostiles or friendlies?

They'd probably fight you but unlike in adventure mode, no new soldiers will spawn.

Brilliant! 3,000 years after the fall of their civilization in a world of goblins and zombies, there are just a few "barbarian" wrestlers lingering in the castles of the world, but I don't want them reappearing.

You've helped me greatly!

Their civ has been gone for ~3,000 years, and they are the same race (I am playing a modded-out humans), so I don't think that will be a problem (for those reasons, and the gibbering zombies outside the walls of my new City). ^ ^

Here's another one, however:

Will semi-mega beasts attack in place of megabeasts and titans, if there are none left?

i just had someone taken by a fey mood and created an artifact mechanism worth 103,000.  should i use this in a trap or leave it alone?

As far as I know, mechanism material has no weight on it's effectiveness, so you might as well use it in a trap proudly. Keeping artifacts that can be built lying around doesn't do anything special for the moment, except make them susceptible to thieves.

[ltprifti]

do trap mechanisms have a chance of breaking so i should build a "safe" trap one out of danger unless i get overrun?

Mechanisms don't break, and unless it's just sitting there by itself on the ground outside of your fort, nothing is going to take it from you. No need to coddle it. Even mechanisms need some space to breathe.

Never, never waste it in a trap. Make it a lever at the most visible place in your fort and assign the most sad dwarf to pull duty on said lever. Watch as he hump the level till ecstatic.

Make it a weapon trap in the King's throne room.

He'll be pleased, and you'll actually have a place to put that artifact-quality blowdart-pipe thingey your idiot bonecrafter made.

i just bought alot of food(250 meat 300 fish and 400 plants) from dwarven caravan and i am wondering if food at the depot will rot or not

[Sphalerite]

I am fairly certain that food does not rot while still in the depot, not that that is any reason to just leave it there.

[ltprifti]

yeah, i was jsut wondering if i should take 30ish dwarves and disable all but food hauling but its not a problem if it doesnt rot at depot

[rephikul]

food belonging to you and is not queued for trading WILL rot on the depot IIRC

[ltprifti]

how do i keep food from rotting? put it in a stockpile?  or barrel necessary?
