It would be too easy to take over the world, the player must be limited in some way to be fair to the rest of the world

How big is a dwarven portion of food, since they can go months without eating more than a single meal?

Screw that, this is a simulation, not a balanced game XD

[Sheb]

Not big, but nutrient are quantum stockpiled in it.


Where do the atomsmashed stuff goes?

Since the atoms are smashed, they are disintegrated. The electrons, protons, neutrons go somewhere into the air.

[Eric Blank]

But there is no air!?

How do dorfs breathe if there is no air? How can they suffocate or drown if there is no air in the first place!?

[Foxite]

Who told you there's no air lol

Why does it take longer for a dwarf of any skill level including legendary +30 to make a stone wall than it is for a completely untrained mason to make a rock table?

[Quartz_Mace]

It takes a lot more strength, time, and effort to make a pile of boluders/blocks into a decent wall than cut a boulder into a rough table using 3 square meters of specialized equipment.

Why are they undead soooo powerful? One living corpse slaughtered my pair of hammer lords single-handedly.

In order to destroy the undead, you have to render the corpse into a state that is no longer capable of mounting any kind of offensive. Also, they do not experience true pain, nor true fear, and being already dead they do not experience any sense of mortal peril. The only thing that undead feel is a compulsion to destroy the living. As such, destroying the undead requires more studious application of the finer parts of the dwarven martial arts than does say, dispatching a kobold thief, or a goblin snatcher.

Now, how exactly can an animated skeleton move, given that it has no connective tissues at all with which to perform such ambulatory activities?

The undead have vastly improved strength as well and are quite capable of smashing through iron or steel armor or ripping limbs from sockets with a single bare hand.

My best advice for undead is a combination of hacking (axes) and pulping (hammers). The less body parts the corpse has the easier it is to pulp, even if having a bunch of re-animated hands around is a bit dangerous.

But then again... how can a severed arm can grab something with its "upper arm"?

[UnicodingUnicorn]

Sheer force of will.

[Aslandus]

Necro magic, it causes inanimate, but organic objects to gain the ability to move relative to their connected parts... Armok help us if a necromancer ever tries to resurrect a tree...

Why is everything on fire?

[Max™]

Dwarves are much like pen and paper RPG players, if you want something on fire, simply placing it in their vicinity will serve.

Where do these clouds of dwarf or elf or goblin blood form?

That's where cleaned-up blood puddles go.

How can some dwarves feel nothing about the death of a wagon?

[UnicodingUnicorn]

They are cruel, heartless creatures.

Why hasn't a great  monument to all of wagon-kind been built yet?

On it.
