Can You assign me to do some battle training (not with Kalin, thank you), esp heavy armor, in my spare time?

No. We only have one barracks, already owned by Prolebashers. Also, Head Miner Tinrdli restricts the miners from doing anything other than mining. Furthermore, we cannot spare any armor - the smithy is too busy to produce extras.

Hey, be grateful Sukhavati didn't label you as a second class citizen. You get to work on the fortress in the safety of 8th underground layer - that's more than most other dwarves have.

spigot's profession in the prolebashers is "curmudgeon"

Are you going to pick a weapon? Or just bear-hug your opponents to death?

I can't remember what's in stock, nor which are actually any good, so do me a favour and pick a suitable weapon for an old dwarf that just wants to protect himself and his home (and definitely not get revenge on anyone)

Old outpost in the middle of Iberia
I still say mass volley crossbow shooting is the way of the Future(tm). Heck we should fortify our position with catapults and ballistae! Also where is our air support? I propose we make a magma trench when we finally have fireproof plumbing. :D

I officially request to never be in a management position in this fortress. Also my votes will always go to our great leader 1st Grimwulf , 2nd option Sukhāvatī , 3rd option to Citizen . These komrades have my outmost trust (even if they don't trust me). We need to make statues in their honor, leadership and vision. :hug:

Grimwulf What gods does my dwarf worship?

Thank you all for this quality entretainment :M

That'll be pointless until we build a fortification. Ballista only shoots straight, so it will only work if placed in a proper location, e.g. at the end of a long narrow tunnel. Catapults need to be built en masse in order to be effective, preferably in unreachable locations like rooftops or battlements. If we build ballista or catapults on the ground, they would simply get rekt as soon as anything hostile shows up.

Also, we don't have any siege operators to use them effectively.

Your dwarf doesn't believe in Gods.

The water-drinking thing is there because I'm in the middle of playing right now. We opened the gates, and everyone rushed to the river to get something to drink.

I thought of putting charscreens in the OP, but then reconsidered. Dorven personalities change quite frequently. Even small things like miasma might affect the character.

Edit: In case you're wondering, THIS is how a tru Kommunist reacts to miasma:

Take it all in and be fucking grateful. It's the smell of KKK.

Sukhavati: She becomes completely helpless in stressful situations.

She better have a cozy job then. Imagine her having the wellbeing of all KKKdwarves on her shoulders, constantly making life or death decisions, the KKKommissar yelling at her every waking moment...

What job did we vote her in again? Oh. Okaaaaaaaaay...

And here I am just wondering from whom where the miasma is coming from.
I'm sure everything is fine

Didn't read the whole thread, eh? In case you're interested, there is a Table of Contents in the OP, helpful for new recruits to catch up without enduring 40+ pages of comments.

Edit: long story short, Kalin was our first manager. He failed at basically everything. The Outpost was covered in miasma for quite some time due to his fuck-ups.

Here is some gud DF art from Kruggsmash (a legend in DF community, although he only does vidya LP), that'll keep you entertained for a while.
At first you think the dwarves doing just fine at fending off the the goblin invasion, but then you see the fortress is doomed.

Just like Redlabored.

Nice! I'm down with some kind of fever so a nice vidya LP is just what I need! Which one would you recommend from the dude to start with?
