Last night the goblins that we have been sending out raids against decided to send another army to wipe us out. We successfully repelled the attack but lost half of our marksdwarves after our forward bunkers were overrun. Here's a list of the dead and some pictures of the carnage.

We are almost ready to start building steam engines, which will be able to replace our waterwheels. Will make pumping liquids around much much easier. That's as far as we are on the technology front.

Can you generate steam hot enough to boil goblins alive? If so do that in place of atomic power, it's what dwarf Posadas would want.

Hey, could you build a tomb for my dwarf, and seal a few of the less useful citizens, or maybe some captive elves or goblins, in with him when he dies, so that they might serve him in the afterlife?

Also, could we make a sacrifice or two at the temple, to grant us the favor of the gods in our crusade against the greenskin menace?

It does! There are libraries and whatnot although afaik the only useful skills that will actually train are the medical ones which isn't useless but obv not fully implemented. Student already affected learning from demonstrations during combat training.

Unfortunately your dwarf isn't doing much because our wood industry isn't very valuable right now, I could always draft him but he's terrified of combat/confrontation.

He's 136, which is pretty middle aged for a dwarf. Most can live to be 200+
