Would you rather I put you in the marksdwarf squad that's having trouble not shooting themselves in their own feet any time they use a crossbow?  And has had less than stellar performance (and survivability) in combat against goblins, let alone demons?  Toiling away on the Walls sounds a little better now, doesn't it?

Dibs on Axe + Captain of the Guard.

If I'm the captain or if I'm receiving the axe... well, I'm not picky.

The Captain of the Guard has been dead for some time.  I'd replace them, but all they seem to do is cripple the dwarves I actually need.

You got dwarfed when i did everyone else yesterday.  You're all on the wall as slave labour.  Though I am considering putting you all into a single militia squad just to see if you guys will survive or be slaughtered by goblins on the front doorstep amongst the literal dozens of goblin and troll skeletons.


When i form you all into a militia squad at a later date, (ie; when there's more migrants to stick on the wall as labour) you can be the psychotic axe-wielding militia captain.

Actually shooting myself in the foot with a crossbow would be a more realistic interpretation of me as a dwarf. Great designs, terrible execution.

Or you could give the axe to the Captain of the Guard, and girlinhat could receive it from him. She's not picky.

Ouch!

Have them killed. Nothing solves a problem quite as effectively as simply having it killed.

I think Aussie should make a militia squad composed entirely of Necro910 and Girlinhat. Nothing could stop all that awesome!

When all you've got is an adjustable spanner and an entire freight warehouse of terrifying cogs and gears, everything looks like "just a prototype".

You all turned Swordthunders into a bastion of madness that seems to warp in on itself under its own hatred of sanity.  I'm so happy!

Except it's not actually ME there.  It's just a dwarf wearing a costume.

The east wall is now about half-finished.  All your dwarves are still alive and toiling away, too.

The first three levels of the East Wall are done.  The dwarves are now building the gantries for the fourth and fifth levels.
