Another siege, fully mounted and on the move, arrived, but too late. The remaining dwarves went insane and murdered each other. A brewer, designated chief medical dwarf, rehabilitated two wounded dwarves, giving them crutches. One of them came back to kill her in her sleep. Two more went berserk and slaughtered two of the three remaining. Crundles did the other in.

So ends the tale of Lulledflags.
Well I lolled.  But where's the flags?

Sometimes it takes a little while for a fortress to completely crumble. I've had a fortress hit the end of a massive tantrum spiral leaving only one child alive, perfectly content, with four kills to her name. She sat in the booze stockpile hummimg happily.

I suppose I could have walled in and waited for immigrants to arrive, but I was impatient, so I abandoned. At least I know she didn't want for food or booze; there was over 4000 of each stockpiled.

"Salt" refers to "table salt" not "slabs of dried stone in the desert".  So that was expected.

Actually I do think it is more like rock salt. A salt FB would be better made of giant NaCl crystals rather than just powdered salt.

But yeah, most crystalline FB's suck.

As far as I know, all of the FB's and similar creatures are totally random. It's entirely possible for a beast to be made of powder salt, floating water or even Air. In previous versions, these beasts were invincible, since they couldn't be damaged. Now, a single punch from a crippled dwarf with 1 arm, no legs and 3 missing eyes will splatter its brains all over the fortress walls.

Then it happened. Then I cringed. Then I picked it up and beat him to death with it, and then his buddies, too.

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.

If a lack of strong sieges is a problem, try the Fortress Defense Mod in my sig.

Also note that killing the goblin leader will cause the goblins to lose access to mounts, meaning that buggy flying mounts will no longer occur.
