Swordthunders is to DF players like Avast is to viruses. The formers scare away the latters.

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!

Yeah.. One reason I've been moving so slow is this fort terrifies me. It's not the demons, nor the dwarves, nor the forgotten beasts, nor the goblins, nor even the elves.

It's the fort.

What's so scary about it?

1) The labyrinthine passages. I always feel like I might have left some unblocked passage. Or maybe the hallways are jeering at me, and I don't notice 'cause I don't read Chinese.

2) The stuff, oh god the stuff. It makes my brain want to terminate itself. That's why my prime goal is to incinerate as much as I can as fast as I can.

3) The way it talks to me in my sleep. Oh god. ASCII dreams.

1) Funny, I thought the place was pretty linear, myself.  Armok help you if you ever look at the fort I shared with Mitchewawa.

2) Why is everyone so determined to destroy all the stuff on the empty quarry level?...

3) Huh, guess using Ironhand must've helped maintain my KILLMAGMABURN sanity or something.

Haha, Avast scared away the virus. If you finish your year and post the save up later, Vehudur (though following our tradition of being lazy and skipping turns, more likely Splint) will have to scan the file before downloading. Just in case.

If it makes you guys feel safer, pass the save to me before uploading. I have a Linux system and mad virus killing skills. I love Swordthunders too much to let something as un-dorfy as a virus hinder the reclaim attempt.

To the viruses: COME AT ME, BROS!

Still a lot of stone there.

The forgotten beast Izeremag Ombemong has come! A huge virus composed of adamantine. It has external ribs and a gaunt appearance. Beware it's deadly dust!

Mego strikes the virus in the cortex with rm -rf!
The virus staggers backwards and collapses!
The virus has been struck down!

Mego takes an antibiotic and points out to Mapleguy555 that DNA doesn't work like that.

Oliolli facepalms at how slowly the fort is progressing.

It does absolutely nothing!
