Def. Lying right there. Armok's wrath cannot be contained.

Finally thought, ---- this, and removed the FLIER tag from  GCS. When I reloaded the save, they all thought: "Wait a minute, I can't fl-THUMP." Then I sent out the military to "interrogate downed pilots". Missed the human caravan this way.

Aw, why'd you do that? Those GCS were probably going to kill everyone :(

I would have dearly loved to have seen that, did many of the pilots survive?

1. Build a roof. If your low on materials use bridges. (Blocks are good mason training.)[Replace bridges later in case of dragon, roc, etc.]

2. Make sure the civ alert restricts all non-military below ground.

3. Have your military wait inside your 1 z-level high entrance and kill what comes to them.

4. Forge lots of crossbows and any armor you can mass produce. Give to haulers and processors. Enjoy watching gobbos getting ventilated from the reverse-fortifications.

Make sure you have quivers for the marksdwarves, enough ammo assigned properly, and forbid used ammo. You'll probably want to forbid all death items so that dwarves don't have the grabthesock Olympic race.

Most of them survived. It was a 3-5 urist fall, except for those that were still on the ground.
