I fell into a goblin ambush. After he shot me in the arm, I chopped his leg off and ate it in front of him before pelting him with his own bones. We then engaged in a yelling match about our victories, then he decided to join me in adventure.

I started up a biter elf. Teeth are good for ripping up stuff but finishing off creatures? Not so great. I wrestled with a goblin for a bit then stole his arrows off him, but couldnt get him to give up his bow. Fortunately I could just throw the arrows straight at him.

How are people having these great adventures in adventure mode? I wandered down a dwarven tunnel-road, recruited a macedwarf, resurfaced on the other side of a mountain range with no bearings on the night creature I was hunting and tried to sate my growing hunger by killing the first thing I saw (a weasel) only to have my adventurer slice it into a nearby pond like a furry golf ball which I then drowned while trying to retrieve so I could eat it.

That sounds like an adventure to me.

Jesus whips are ridiculously deadly compared to this battleaxe I've been using. Untrained, I wrestled a copper whip off a goblin chief then I murdered the half dozen goblins around me with a single lash to the head each.

I had a very helpful assistant while experimenting with necks: an unnamed elf who kept coming back to life when I took a nap. You can behead people by aiming a slashing attack at their neck. If successful, you should find a matching neck lying on the ground. Butchering the neck creates all of the usual head gibs, including upper spine nervous tissue. Did that used to happen?

The head bone's connected to the neck bone.

A wereass showed up and messed up one of military dwarves pretty bad before going down. The wounded guy got sent to the hospital and the chief medical dwarf arrived to diagnose him just in time for the next full moon so he got torn to shreds. I thought I had him isolated but apparently he got out after turning back to a dwarf and the next full moon he transformed right at my main entrance and killed a dozen dwarves before a mace soldier got a lucky shot on his head. Even though most of my soldiers had been training for the past year and a half most of them were too scared to do anything. People are too busy freaking out over the pile of corpses to bury any of them. Some of the children of the deceased started fighting so I tried to get some justice going but I just keep getting "Captain of the guard cancels Beat Criminal: Experiencing emotional shock" over and over.

e: he got over the shock and beat a tantrum-throwing dwarf to death but now he's horrified by the corpse he just created

See thread title.

Stopped migrants from retaining certain adv/etc. flags harmful to their integration into the fort (making them 'hostile') Note: those from old saves might take off articles of clothing and store them and other strange things, since the integration could not be made complete easily...

Stopped hyper-obese digesting dwarves from constantly recalculating insulation/mass data (ag)

One of these solves a mystery. The other one just adds more questions. :psydwarf:
