I can't wait to mod in sieges of vampires turned from your former dwarves and enemy goblins, until at last the Vampire Emperor himself comes in his dark glory.

An army of Twitards besieges your fortress! The dark lord Stephanie Meyer has come to your fortress!

If Twilight entered your thoughts, you need to log off the forums, go watch some old black and white movies, read some good books, and come back in a few weeks.  Every time you make fun of something, you bring attention to them and give free advertising.  A better way of opposing something is to ignore it and not annoy others by talking about it -.-

To be fair, no one has written knowledge right now.  No civ or creature ever reads or writes.

Agreed.

On a side note, I hope dead zombies (the ones you kill) won't be able to be reanimated. That would be so ridiculous: Kill them all, they all get revived. Kill them all again, more revives for everyone. And so on.

one of the dev releases speccifically states that undead will raise from any partially functioning body-part, ala hands, heads, and corpses with feet still.  So I think undead will re-raise until they are reduced to a horrible quivering mass of flesh.

Do none of you play on evil biomes?  A slain zombie leaves no corpse.  It leaves nothing.

It also doesn't count as a kill by you. These are probably bugs with the current implementations of zombies, and Toady has already at least partially acknowledged this. Perhaps they'll be fixed for the next version.

In comes a necromancer attended by a horde of zombies. He is attracted to this Dwarven Fortress because he has heard it contains dwarves. And as we all know, dwarven fortresses don't have a very long life expectancy.

He walks over to the graveyard, noting the hundreds of rotting corpses, and with a smile, begins raising them from the dead.

Suddenly magma.

[SirAaronIII]

I thought the zombies disappearing thing was only a temporary solution for the overpoweredness of the undead. Maybe it'll get fixed with the whole necromancers deal.

[Psieye]

Zombies not giving kills is because of the HP hotfix. If a zombie is put down because its HP is brought to 0, then nobody gets the kill. If a zombie gets cleaved in half then it registers as a kill as it didn't need its HP brought to 0 to perish. This probably will be fixed now that undead got a rewrite.

i love you

[ztyler]

I think the only way to kill zombies should be with FIRE MAGMA!

[Psieye]

So... what happens when a magma man corpse gets reanimated? Wait, do they even leave behind corpses?

[ztyler]

If they do, then throw the body in a pond and then use the said obsidian block to make a sword out of. Zombified rocks anyone?

What gets engraved on slabs?

[Ubiq]

Random body parts are eventually going to come after you. I wonder if that applies to prepared body parts; it's be infinitely amusing if a Necromancer shows up and your dwarves are swarmed by undead Prepared Elephant Hearts or Rhesus Macaque Intestines.

Armok help the person that embarks on a map with whales in that scenario.
