When that saves him from a ballista bolt, let me know.

We are somewhat straying from the subject here,the head is always the head and will never not be the head,while the lower torso for some reason is both legs and above the waist at the same time

It's because the raws are somewhat abstract. I mean sure, there are various things to put some logic into the body-parts, but you could have two creatures that are conceptually somewhat different, but with the same raws.

A note to Uruk Mcorc:

Please FINISH BRINGING YOUR KILLS IN.

Don't drop them mid haul for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. You haven't been spooked, locked out, anything, you just seem to be randomly dropping your dead animals for n reason at all. This means we have no meat, no bones, nothing. None of that means no better weaponry. No better weaponry means no warband. No warband means the inferior races like the elves will kill us with their treachery.

Dear archers,

Please stop whining about feeling sick .
I explicitly told you not to go hunting because the surface is all covered in acid sludge and yes, it hurts when you try to wade through that.

But you wouldn't listen.
You wouldn't even listen when i told you to go to that room 20 lvls beneath the entrance-hall and stay there, giving me stupid
excuses like "i'm off duty now" or "i'm not in the army you know" or "burrows are for women".

I would also like to take the opportunity to give you my whole-hearted thanks for dumping your quivers on said acid sludge when i decided to draft you into the military and *ordering* you to go inside.
As if you didn't know your family would hurry outside to pick up the stuff.

All of them are now sick as well. If not dead because of those half-rotting camels you managed to attract the attention from.
To be more precise: Of the 74 happy dwarves that were once running this magnificent fortress-to-be, there are now only 26 left.

Lying of the floor. Crying. Vomiting. Because of you.

Kinds regards,
Hope you get well soon,

Overseer.

Dear Dorfs,

Please, please stop running away from elk birds every frickin' time you're going to get some addy for the sword I'm going to give to a future adventurer.

Signed,

Moi

P.S. Avoid cutting into caverns at all costs, cave moss and underground mushtrees are fugly

Dear dwarves of Lashdye (I actually wanted to use Lashdyes),

What is your minor obsession with artifact grates, the miner just made the 7th artifact grate in the fort (and the third obsidian grate, but that's only because I've been forcing obsidian to be chosen with mason type moods), why aren't you guys making other stuff like, oh say, armor stands or something?

Are you guys trying to tell me something here?

Your slightly annoyed and somewhat perplexed overseer.

Dear Dwarven Militia Captain

I set your equipment to use a steel battleaxe for a reason. Please stop using your fists. The goblins almost got in that time, and if it wasn't for Urist McHammerdwarf blocking the door, they probably would have.

Dear Overabomination of Lashdye(s?),

We are trying to indicate that this fort needs a building destroyer-and Overseer-safe magma heating system. Flooding the caverns with magma would also be appreciated.

Dear Urist McMilitia

During that ambush when I recruited you and assigned you to use a warhammer and then sent you to fight, i meant you to pick the hammer to beat those goblins, not to just run and punch them, and dont give me cheap excuses, Catten got the hammer. Too bad another ambushed showed up and killed almost all the militia, anyway, screw you Urist, you'll get the cheapest coffin.

Have you tried setting the equipment to replace clothing?
