I like the way that the mayor's mandate ends right before he gets crushed, and at the moment of being crushed he's referred to as peasant, not mayor.  Apparently imminent death was enough to cause him to abdicate his position, fleeing the post moments before being struck by the cave-in.

I think this may be the most sensible reaction of any dwarf, anywhere, ever. Even if his "Fuckit, i'm outta here" was a token effort.

I'd like to imagine the looks on the immigrants faces as they arrive inside you're semi-ruined fortress decorated in dust and dwarf blood.

Maybe in his last moments, he wanted to die as an equal to his fellow Dwarf.

More likely Twisted Dwarf Logic(tm) made him assume a falling cieling would aim for the highest ranking office beneath the deal the most damage. This either means the Cieling wasn't fooled or he wasn't fast enough to escape the Cielings indiscriminate boner murder.

'we have come to forge our new lives, and for the good of the mountainho-'
'oh'
'what?'
'there appears to be someone running at us covered in blood and dust, with craze in his eyes and a masterwork adamantine axe in his hand.'
'really? oh, hello! what happened he-'
*urist mcidiot has been struck down*

Pretty much.

One of the best cave-ins ever. Of all time. Period.

I build massive above-ground fortresses a lot (and use the above ground portions for non-food stockpiles) so I've had bigger, but I've never thought of taking screenshots.

Ok, I stand corrected.

Still holds the title of best cave in I've seen recorded. The best i got was a random section of volcano caving in and revealing Adamantine. 35 z levels underground. But this was just a spectacular cheap laugh. and as such I applaud you.

[ledgekindred]

This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

And I watched when Spiral Dementia pull out the cotton candy sword...

This is awesome and hilarious, I was expecting somebody complaining about water leaking into magma or a random accident, but this is amazing enough to make want to reproduce it in my fort. So many dead!
