Disproportionate retribution
« on: November 14, 2010, 02:12:03 am »

I was browsing legends mode, and I happened to find an entry for the first named bear I killed.  I was vaguely curious as to why he was on my village's kill list.

It turns out, seven years before the start of my quest, he stole a single strawberry.

Apparently someone was a little bit bitter about that.

Well think of Dwarf Fortress mode, now what if you could command wandering adventurers to kill Rhesus Macaques or Raccoons? In no time their populations would be extinct.

I would send some adventurers to kidnap dwarves (good ones, not crappy ones)

I guess there is a certain satisfaction to being a quest giver instead of just sending your own expedition force.

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.

Can be done if you set up a Cagetrap and trigger it on your self. Runesmith to set one to be uncaged you would be able to carry yourself to short distances.

You can put a hit on one of your residents. Those of noble nature especially.
