The elf word for that directly translates into 'elf-like'

Do sieges happen too soon for Diomedans because they're evil? The other entities seem to have the usual siege triggers written in raws.
I'm playing as Rainbows now, at 78 pop and no siege yet (reckon they'll start at 80, as intended).

The siege triggers are for when that entity will siege, which is how a lot of challenge mods work, you get different races attacking you at different times. Oddly, buffalo don't seem to have them, I'll fix that, but all the others do. [BABYSNATCHER] may well upgrade the belligerence of non-snatchers and make them ignore the triggers.

My fortress has given up trying to farm. I haven't ever had a struggle growing food before but for some reason, this fortress is different.

Plus we kill everything in site, fishing, hunting, plant gathering, tree cutting TO THE EXTREME
Let's look at an average meal in my fort.

I believe we're talking about full scale colonisation here.  You don't just leave all your shit in the van when you move house.

Hah, I love that picture.

I haven't had any real trouble with farming food myself, although I just stick with the dwarven food to be safe.  The ponies seem to eat more than dwarves, but maybe it's my imagination.  I've actually disabled hunting and fishing and have gotten by quite well on just farming.

I did end up assigning close to half of my ponies to farming duty, but it was completely unnecessary and I was just seeing how far I could go with it.

And now this gives me an idea for a community fort where the ponies are slowly driven to murdering animals in a harsh tundra. Technically it would be more like cannibalism then anything. The ponies could start out happily eating their rations, then run out, slowly realize they need alternative food, deny it until one of them dies and then, while crying, murder an animal and eating it.

Maybe when a pony kills an animal it automatically gets the "Doesn't Care About Anything Anymore" thing?

Technically, it'd only be cannibalism if they were eating other equinoids, and the only equinoids they'll have to deal with up in the frozen tundra are polar bear ponies, who have it coming, ursa major ponies and inedible trojan ponies. I'm pretty sure it's not possible to mod creatures to get the doesn't care attribute quicker.

...So.
Goblins tried to do a siege. I just sent my squad (full squad, all in steel armament) at them, and all the goblins died without landing one good blow. Then there was (instantly) two ambushes by diomedans, one of which was faced by a lone swordpony. Who killed about 6 of them with only minor injuries, and he now doesn't care about anything anymore.

You see, being almost three times the size of a human makes you quite a bit more awesome than normal.
I'd say... about 200% cooler :p

Well, this mod offers more endless possibilities. See, if you can survive as Diomedans, you can do some really nice stuff. The fact that their ethics allow eating sapients really helps. And the fact that the "simple" meal is now cupcakes.

Yes, you can (and should, that's what they get for invadin') skin other ponies, bake cupcakes from their meat and make useful things out of their skin and bones.

Also see signature. Although I'm not really sure if you can make a leather statue...
