Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

On a less dwarfy note.  What an idiot, and an asshole.

Agreed. This is very high on the Dwarfy Behavior scale.

He who plays with dwarves must take care that he does not become a dwarf.  And when you stare into DwarfFort, Dwarffort stares back into you.

When I saw the title I expected to see some sort of DF-based LARPing. And then I thought about how awesome Boatmurdered: The Movie would be.

...suffice to say, I am sorely disappointed.

That is a champ move, the walling, and the boatmurdered movement.
