Magma cools? What are you talking about? It just evaporates like water if there's only 1/7 in a square.

What happens if dwarf fortress is allowed to get tech levels equivalent to modern day?

[TSTwizby]

Nothing, all worlds generated suddenly die off around 1945.


How is it that untame creatures are needless while tame grazers can starve?

[MaximumZero]

The untame ones packed a lunch. The tame ones expected you to do that for them. Lazy bastards.

Do you think that dwarves ever entertain babies by making beard puppets?

[Monk321654]

But of course! It's a traditional favorite for dwarven parents to put on beard shows for their children!

What do elves do with their babies?

[Blizzlord]

They put them in trees so they grow faster.

How do the dwarves atom smash the rubble as soon as they mine it?

[TheProphet]

They don't. The rock is caught in the beard of the miner. The beard then acts as a cheese-grater, reducing the rock to a small pile of dust which is spread out as the dorf walks around.

What makes beards so strong?

[MrAnderson]

booze, and *kitten roasts* (fyi: don't try this at home)

why don't dwarves just jump down a ledge if they are trapped up a wall?

[Corai]

They trust you to save them WAY to much.

Why don't necromancers arm their zombies? They can and will use weapons if they have them after death.

[Komra]

Zombies have trouble grasping the thin, rounded handle, being too used to grabbing for flesh. Any weapons they have from their time in life are their held to the rigidity of their finger muscles at the time of death. Additionally, they usually are seemingly less dextrous than the living.

How have some migrants apparently been nothing but an "appraiser" or "strand extractor" for their entire lives? Doesn't seem the most workable way to make a living on a constant basis.

[Mr S]

Many of them were previously cheese makers or fish dissectors, but during their later career as appraisers and strand extractors the old skills have rusted away to nothingness.

Why is it considered "cheaty" to put children to work hauling this and that around in a primarily agrarian society?

[misko27]

Because the dwarves have a very interesting system of ethics, where children should be allowed to laze around until 13, but then have to work until they die.

Why has no one discovered candy except for this small group of dwarves? Its everywhere underground!
BONUS: Why does everyone automatically know that cany is riduculously valuable without ever seeing it?

[Facekillz058]

Because everyones always talking about it on the forums.

What goes through a dwarves head when it sees it's first peice of candy?

Badass elves?

*derisive laughter*

Damn son, i hate Elves more then most, but in Lord of the Rings, The Elder Scrolls, and many others, i must say, Elves can be pretty badass at times.... no matter how gay they look while doing it. Never as Badass as Dwarfs, though

Another question cause this went off track a bit; Why do Dwarves kill themselfs if there kittens die?
