Doubtful; the game treats true liquids (water/magma) very differently from blood, drinks, vomit, etc. If you throw enough water at a tile, it'll fill up to 1/7, and when that 1/7 evaporates back down to 0/7 you're left with a muddy farmable tile. Blood on the other hand can never fill a tile to 1/7, you just get 'piles' of it sitting around, it never gets treated as an actual liquid that can flow or evaporate or (presumably) muddy a tile.

Otherwise, there would be a lot of blood-spewing superweapons around designed to drown goblins in poisonous boiling blood and/or vomit. Although the same effect can be achieved by caged animals, some weapons traps, and a water reservoir. But it's just not the same.....


....I wonder if coagulating lakes of blood would be like freezing/obsidianising stuff.......then having blocks of solidified blood....

It'd certainly make for easier trade negotiations, having a depot made from the blood of the previous caravan.

A few have already made blood harvesting plants.

Cisterns of blood, feeding it to the children and the needy!

Forcefeeding the blood of dead, tortured goblins to their captured comrades, make them puke it up, and make them eat it again.
Rinse and repeat.

Why not just chain them up. Pipe going in, pipe going out. Cycle.

This is just horrible.

I never said they werent chained up.   And these things don't poop.

[Loud Whispers]

Wow, you disgusted Wannazzaki.

That, is something.

On the contrary. It is science.

Here's a thing: I have found that sometimes, if I construct walls on cavern levels (including inside stone that does not breach the caverns), when I deconstruct them, the tile becomes soil and starts to grow fungus. You could try that and see if you get lucky.

i started a tread about when you deconstruct naturally made ramps (accidentally put stairs in title lol) that i got sand on a dirt less mountain
