Let's Play Dwarf Fortress: Syndrome Conundrum

[Engarde]

Well, shit, that isn't looking good. Will the kraken eat all the goblins? I hope it does. Or it could go smash its way underground and chill in the lake for awhile. I quite like the new style, however.

Pretty much the exact same as last update. Like I said this didn't even take 10 days, so not much has changed other than the horrible possibility of a ton of dwarves (and goblins) dying. I think I told the diggers to hold off on finish the new tunnel until the wanamingo and killer bird situation is sorted out.

Also this is what a bunting [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunting_%28bird%29] is, in case you were wondering. I know I was. At first I thought a monstrous flag had shown up.

 

[Frozen_Flame]

Oh, fair enough. And buntings look cute!

 

[vallorn]

oh god... everything is atacking!

Kraken if i were you i would just flood the place with Magma to be on the safe side.
screw the dwarves down there. they're expendable...

The new style is, not as good. It is still good but not as good.

Also you are screwed.

I know, but it's only a temporary thing. I didn't want to switch to a new style but fuck me trying to write this update and the next one with the normal one is hard. Especially one that didn't just involve a bunch of incoherent screaming about how everyone is going to die, which I've already done.

 

[Aidinthel]

Lots of fun going on in this fort right now...

 

[CloggedDonkey]

Wow, huh... damn. What exactly am I doing in all this? If it's not getting plastered in the blood covered mess hall, I am very disappoint.

 

[killthenrun1]

Ok fair enough, feel free to try any style you want I just thought you might like some feedback.
Also the next update sounds like a slaughterfest.

 

[ChaoticKraus]

I'm expecting mayhem in the next update. It will be glorious.

 

[Scizophrenic Llama]

This is what happens when you kill a dwarf named Llama, everything goes to shit.

If that update didn't even span ten days, I'm looking forward to how crazy the next one will be.

 

[Irridium]

I check back today and find not one, not even two, but THREE updates? I has a happy.
...

Good god, everything's tearing apart at the seams!

And it is amazing.

That'll teach me not to keep up with things....

She is enamored with her mother's tales of battle and glory, constantly talking about how much of a hero she is. Yesterday I saw her trying to swing around a toy spear. It's rather cute to be honest, but I need to be sure she doesn't get a hold of anything sharp. Otherwise she might cut one of her arms off.

Awwww...bless.

Now, you get off to sleep now because Mummy...



...might be needed...

 

[killthenrun1]

Might be needed?

You fight stuff like that every other day.

but... i wanna watch you fight the monsters mummy!

 

[killthenrun1]

The forgotten beast Godzilla has come. A great scaly dinosaur. It has a long black tail and it walks and slides along on it's tail. It dark tan exoskeleton is hard. Fear it's nuclear breath!

Hush now, you'll have to look after your little daughter while Mummy's away. I'll bring you back a fresh coating of blood I promise.

And no throwing spears at your sister until I come back.

Or else I'll get Father to talk to you about stones again.

 

[Aidinthel]

Or else I'll get Father to talk to you about stones again.

Hey, stone is very important! In case you hadn't noticed, this entire fort is made of it. It's the work of masons like me that prevents us from being slaughtered by the goblins that your military can't even try to fight.

It's much safer work, too. I'd much rather the children work as masons than join your redshirt brigade.

See girls, that's what Father does because he can't fight properly. He talks about bricks. Yet he can't get a working bridge.

He does try his best though. So don't give him any trouble when Mummy's out destroying the Kraken.
