Ah, but then we could pull a Headshoots and see the destruction he could pull off after being made undead by Runesmith

someone should take a save of that just for fun. I mean, look at the hilarity it caused in Headshoots. Also, I don't think the military tower is finished, only the swimming pools (heck, they might not even be done yet).

eventualy it may end up with armarok -end of the dwarf world- and all the champions will have to fight each other to see who comes out ontop.

If this crumbles, I say we go back to most recent save and just go free for all with a loyalty cascade

Ren keeled down by the grave and said a small prayer.

"Well John you taught me all you knew about the tactics and theory of the hunt. If I was a bit older I could have been there to help you out with that damn spider. Perhaps we both would have died though..."

He shook his head lightly and cradled his still unfamiliar crossbow in his arms. He would soon be training constantly with the weapon and with the war hammer as well. In a few short years he would go down to the caverns and exact a heavy revenge on the bloodthirsty creatures of the deep. or die trying...

He slowly walked out of the tombs, past the strange undertaker and towards the new military tower to begin his new life as a hunter in training for the Dwarfs of the Assaulted Guild and beacon of hope that is Towersoared.

Johns grave now quiet once more sat in cold testament to the fact that every dwarf no matter what their station would gladly lay down their lives for their homes and comrades.

o.o.c. I would like it if Ren could train up on crossbow until he is an excellent shot and then do some cross training with the hammer for those close quarters fights when you are out of bolts.

Amazing.
This fort is amazing.

Battlecat, you will go down in history as the man who *won* dwarf fortress.

And since I'm a shameless leech, I'd like to request a dwarf. Preferably male, and strong/fast enough to carry a lot of weight.  Choosing the name "Garet", he has decided that one field of martial ability is not enough. He seeks not the might of a hammer-lord, or the swiftness of a spear-master, or the long-range devastation of an Elite Marksdwarf. He seeks to tranced all of these , and become...the Master of Weapons.

tl;dr

Dorf request: Male, new name Garet, in the military. I would like to see if we could get him up to legendary-or at least high master-in every weapon category, INCLUDING foreign weaponry, since you mentioned you haven't gotten around to melting that yet. Thanks!

Quote from: Malarauko
I had an above ground garden built in the grounds of my castle and two young dwarves spent time socialising there over the summer and at the end of the summer they were in love. Remember those long summers of your childhood? That first kiss in the gardens while crossbows dwarves shoot goblins above your head? The rain of dead birds as the hunters get to work? Truly Spearhills is a paradise.

Cog’s Journal, 6th of Malachite, 321

Another beast has arrived, in the first cave level this time. 

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The phrase ugly doesn’t even begin to describe this one.  I think Derm left scorch marks in his rush to get to the caves.  I sure hope he caught that bit about not letting it bleed on him. 

I’m very frustrated by the beast on the second cave level.  It’s been lurking in a completely inaccessible location in a deep lake.  I think I’ll have the gates opened to try and lure it out.

Events of the 7th of Malachite, 321

Derm made his way to the shore of the lake and prepared himself as the ugly bird beast came streaking across the lake towards him.  This one was fast, hideously fast.  Derm dodged and weaved to keep the beast off him but still was knocked sprawling several times.  As usual, he was too busy dodging to keep himself alive to take a shot at the beast.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

But then the beast made one mistake.  It paused for a moment to take a deep breath before attacking again.  Derm swung his axe with all his might.   The adamantine blade effortlessly cleaved into the beast’s upper body, tearing apart muscle and gouging straight into the beast’s heart.  Blood began spraying out of the wound and Derm quickly dodged away from it. 

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The beast halfheartedly charged once more before collapsing to the ground.  Derm checked himself over.  The only blood was on his weapon and shield.  He walked over to the lake and rinsed them off to be sure.  Another forgotten beast notched onto his axe.  Someday he would have to name it.

Cog’s Journal, 19th of Malachite, 321

Martini showed up in the hospital today with a nasty cut on his arm.  When asked where he got it he vaguely muttered about looking for some quarry bush leaves in the caves and getting clawed by a naked mole dog. 

It’s not life threatening or even very severe so I’m sure he’ll be fine.  I’ve sent Derm down to clear the critters out.  Martini certainly is an odd dwarf. 

 OOC: Sorry for the delayed update, it was another busy weekend!

@Triaxx2: Yeah, that would suck.  You’re fine and back to training now. 

@Karakzon: Good call.  I did plan to do that but in the meantime I’ll just make the pool off limits during the winter.  It doesn’t freeze right at the start of winter so it should be fine. 

@Scaraban: That would be cool except Runesmith isn’t quite as powerful and dead dwarves can’t be resurrected.  They seem to be missing body parts if you try. 

@Thatdude: The pools are almost done being reconfigured so dwarves can’t climb out of the water. 

@longgonejohn: Nice!  As promised, here are the various memorials to John.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

@thriftshopmusketeer: Thanks kindly!  I’ve just sent you a PM regarding some dwarf options.  I’ll get you dwarf assigned as soon as I hear back from you!

@davros: Thanks!

@Omen: Omen is doing just fine.  He’s slowly gaining skill as a speardwarf.  Sadly he slept through the last siege.

 :P Admirer of suns. I'm just imaging a dwarf sitting on a hill screaming is pain and satisfaction as he stares straight into the without blinking.... That came out slightly wrong :-[ ....

On a another note, new title for Derm: "Armok's Janitor"
