Hmm, OK. She also has no weapons, is nude, and water drenched since I channeled the whole map and flooded it with river water (took 5 years to reach 6/7 level).



Whoops, didn't see that coming huh? What now? Are you going to rage, kicking and screaming and biting the bars until they yield? Are you going to swear before your gods to see me dead for destroying the forest? Are you . . .



Oh. Planning the long con huh?

I have to marble at people who talc about wanting simplicity in dwarf fortress - it's a ridiculously complex conglomerate of ideas and factoids by design.

But, let's not be salty about this. Shale we start again with a clean slate instead? Just read the wiki, memorize the few ores that matter, and chalk the rest of them up as junk stone. It's a gneiss, elegant solution.

I actually started removing dining halls once the tavern is up and running. Watching one dwarf eat plump helmet roast alone in the cafeteria while everyone else parties was depressing.

Actually the LD was calculated correctly. The problem was that a drop licked off a paw contained the same amount of alcohol as a full keg of beer. He rather made sure to keep track of how much contaminant was being tracked around.

My sparring dwarves are still somehow teleporting themselves outside of the barracks walls and falling down a few Z-levels onto the side of the mountain. I wouldn't have noticed in the first place if it weren't for the fact that occasionally sparring would result in combat logs (instead of sparring logs) about someone's armor deflecting the force of an unidentified impact. Eventually I observed it actually happening, so I've built a walkway around the outside of the barracks so if it happens again, at least they won't fall several Z levels and risk an unlucky dice roll crushing their skulls.

My worst syndrome, I managed to kill the forgotten beast with exploding vapor or something, and watched everyone closely. They were dizzy for a bit and then seemed to be okay, maybe I got really lucky. After a few months everyone just started falling asleep. Please wake up dorfs. No one woke up. Saddest fort end ever.

Battlefailed series is the official DF forum's Boatmurdered, I think. I keep meaning to read the whole thing and never do; I don't suppose you have links to all five threads?

My competence drops severely with a tileset, since I can't tell what anything is by sight. That doesn't mean you're wrong. I'll look over the more recent threads to see what they used.

You can ride a ghost horse, but only if you put a saddle on it first.

You make a 1-tile storage in your tavern and restrict it to goblets only.
