Migrant Dropper 3000
« on: January 20, 2012, 08:31:12 pm »

Just a few screenies and a little description of my little migrant wave clearer.

It uses a javascript code called "DROP THE MIGRANTS 10 Z LEVELS".
So yeah, I'll post a few screenies and description in a spoiler, and please feel free to add your own traps and ways of lowering dwarf numbers.

So basically, I draft the migrants into squads, then send them up to the wooden bridge, I then pull a lever causing them to fall to their death. It is really quite simple. I also have a less than lethal bridge lower down, that is only at z-level 7, which can let people survive and suffer for a little while longer.

As I said earlier, feel free to add your own little methods of dwarf removal. Please give screenshots if you can.

Yes, they call you a rasict, and then they shot you and take your cocaine.

create a maxsplosion bridge and start using dwarf bone weaponry, armory, ammunition, and everything.

Well, as they say, there's only one way to be sure.

That was amazing... lol.

This would be a great idea... If I didn't already slaughter entire sieges with serrated blades anyways.
So Bones are never a problem.

Alpacas? Dwarves have the best taste in pets. And tastiest pets.

Usually I prefer to go for the "drop them so they don't quite die before giving the doctors something to train on" method.

Also @terkiey, your screenshot image links don't seem to be functioning correctly for me and they all just appear as the little ? boxes as well as giving 404 errors if I try to go to them.

I am not quite sure why that would be, I can see them just fine. I use mediafire to host them.

But... But... Why waste them when they can spend years being experimented on by doctors? Drop two levels in exceptional+ copper gear over and over to skill em up. If you really want em dead just leave them stationed on the bridge and the bridge lever on repeat. Infection will do the job eventually.

well... it is a bit twisted BUT, have a few years worth of migrants live in their own self sufficient fort, then drop all of them at once from max Z-level

Even better, force feed them goblin meat and force-breed them until they have about 100 babies and 10 couples all in a little room.
