Henceforth, Kogan would be known as Irony II.

I always knew this fortress would suffer an ironic fate

[Urist McDwarfFortress]

No one leaves Deathgate... alive!

You don't even leave Deathgate dead, you just rot outside the Hellbunker.

Wait, I thought that was the whole plan for Deathgate 2, that their ghosts escape Deathgate and go out to posses some other poor dwarfs.

[kefkakrazy]

Hah, I looked through my update (since that seemed to be what you were referencing) and it's true. Goden WAS one of the kids killed in the big breach I caused.

I'm flattered <3

In fact, I think Goden was SuperKid, the dwarven child who survived against the assassin bug fiend longer than a couple of the military dwarves did.

That's still the plan.

Which is why I have no intention of putting any more ghosts to rest. Except maybe that violent one by the front gate.

GAH.

No, no, leave him.  If anyone actually magma-floods the fortress, having an angry spectral guard could be useful!

[Urist McDwarfFortress]

Yeah! We'll need somebody to protect the... magma... and !!stuff!! We don't want any of those nasty kobolds running off with a pocket-full of our precious magma!

I was more going for the "Hell Fortress" look, especially if magma spills out of the fort. Aesthetics, man.

[wlerin]

There are actually quite a few artifacts on the upper levels, so he might have a point.

[NCommander]

I go away for a month, and the fort has descended into even more madness.

Incidently, is my dwarf still numbered among the living or has she finally bit it?

[kefkakrazy]

I like having the ghosts around. Having a prior Baelor watch as his current incarnation charged into a horde of lizard demons and an Assassin Bug Fiend? Priceless.

NCommander is alive. Most of the Marksdwarves are. Well... I say most...

I mean, rather, that all that's left of the military is Marksdwarves. Marksdwarves and Scaliper. I'm not sure if this is because melee combat has a higher turnover rate, or the CARP Commander just spent more time training the Marksdwarves (there are a number of CARP trainees for other weapons, but none of them are beyond novice, and I have no intention of risking injuries with the current state of Deathgate's healthcare.)

Most of the military got slaughtered on my turn when we got sieged with two waves of 50+ goblins before the surface was sealed which is when TAD was off'ed. Then TAD caused the save to be corrupted and I had to wind back to the fall autosave which is why we have *any* military :-/.

EDIT: Also helps she's legendary in Siege Operator which gives nice stat boosts.

[ThatAussieGuy]

So is TAD still alive?  Or did he die pre-rollback of your savegame?
