Help with Master Siege Clown
« on: November 25, 2011, 09:57:42 pm »

So my fort's population got "up there" and my military had a handful of swordmasters, many good warriors, and a few newbie recruits.

Then a goblin siege came, lead by "master". No special announcement; just the "vile force" announcement.

The goblins all die to my traps, and I sick my military on that clown.

Military now is dying by stomach bleeding and drowsyness.
The clown's gloves are cut off, and I think its clown shoes are broken, but it's still alive and sitting there near my jail and workshops.
(somehow it kept dodging and rolling all day long even with its injuries  :( ... )

So how should I have handled this? How should I go forward?
I can't find any caverns after ~16 Z-levels,
and my military was pretty good armed and trained with swords, with some axes spears hammers and maces thrown in.

Thanks for your help

If it can't move anymore, you may want to seal it off with walls a good distance away from it.  Those poisonous vapors are what's killing off your military, and you may or may not end up with an epidemic, depending on how well the syndrome spreads.  So quarantining the military could be a good idea too...

Jam a door with its corpse and let all the goblins in. Hey, nobody said it had to be a weapon against your enemies.
