So, I found some adamantine, and I was digging through it, when...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

... I unleashed hell.  Really, now they're coming from a world that looks like some kind of hell, where the sky is fire.

But if that didn't make my jaw drop, the way the dwarves...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

... were mutilated by the horde of winged demons was utterly disturbing!  These twisted things proceeded to kill every dwarf by biting their bodies in half (upper/lower halves, feet-first, and sending the upper half flying away)--every dwarf, except one.  I have 21 pages of the dwarfy leader having her arms and legs bruised, cracked, and smashed by a pack of demons, before they worked on her upper and lower body.  They took forever to kill her inch-by-inch.

She went unconscious immediately before she finally died from a giant white bird demon smashing her head like a watermelon with its foot (thanks for the brain details, Toady).  I would say her death was a mercy, but the trip there was waaaaay too brutal.

HFS really lives up to the "F", now, and in more ways than one.

I need a bigger army.

I need a bigger army.

unless you're at Nist Akath, you ALWAYS need a bigger army.

I have a newfound appreciation for the military overhauls.

So, so true.

HFS: Hell fire shit.

[TarrVetus]

HFS: Hell fire shit.

Not just fire.  It was ice-fire.  HUGE clouds of it.  Constantly.

HFS: Holy F***ing Shit, (RUN FOR YOUR LIVES)

Starring: The Tortured militia commander!
The one black dwarf that gets killed off fast after spouting "AW HELL NAW"
The smart nerdy one who runs and gets lost/killed
The tough-dorf wannabe who only lives till the finale due to 1-liners
And the one female "OH THOSE ARE SHARP" dwarf. (Played by paris hilton)

I went and breached HFS immediately because I could. It definitely wasn't hard to find... but maybe I was lucky.

Anyways, my dwarves were destroyed by giant quetzals. Yeah, those pretty birds. Except with 3 eyes. And giant mandibles. And they could breath fire.

[Max White]

So...Very...AWESOME!

[talrave]

I wasn't too impressed.  My cat fended 3 of them off for quite a while due to every attack they did PASSED THROUGH IT.

[G-Flex]

Yours were probably made out of fire or something. There's a bug where things like fire men, etc, still attempt to attack with their body parts even though it does nothing.

[SkyShadowing]

I love that the new demons are randomly generated. When I punched through just to see (also, the fact that the Underworld is actually a WORLD down there, not merely a few rooms with glowing pits), I was attacked by demon pterodactyls, fire ghosts, and blizzard men.

None of them, even the flying ones, attacked me until I built stairs down to the bottom (I'd savescummed even before drilling straight down). Then the lag as a GIGANTIC DEMON HORDE pathed to the surface as one giant union was even more crippling.

Thankfully, I did manage to get a few kills.

[Krelos]

I got a horde of ice spirit demons who shot bolts of ice. Apparently, however, the ice bolts were not cold enough to freeze anything. I watched many dwarves (and mountain goats...) take upwards of 30 hits without getting hurt.

I visualize it as ice demons hatefully spewing a refreshing breeze at my dwarves, all the while getting more angry that they aren't dieing from it.

Okay, someone's going to have to make a fortress JUST to send a massive army into the underworld. Or dump magma and water into it.

Okay, someone's going to have to make a fortress JUST to send a massive army into the underworld. Or dump magma and water into it.

I seriously believe that, for the first time, magma is not the answer (I know, "blasphemy!").  After the first wave of demons are killed--because you just know that place will continue to spawn them--a river needs to be rerouted and endlessly poured into the festering, Molten Core*-reminiscent pit.


*I'm sorry, but it really was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the place.  I blame it on the fact that I was drinking when playing both games.
