Dwarf Fortress: Ganadoltar, "Specialgild"

So this fortress started innocently enough. I got migrants, got a nice base layout going 1 layer underground, dug some barracks and training areas to get an army going sooner rather than later, and it was all well and good.


It's all ASCII but you can generally tell I had a lot of materials and stuff built/going. It was going extremely well in fact. I had just started smelting weapons and armor. I had focused on armor in the beginning of it, which was fine, but I quickly ran out of iron and didn't really have a lot of copper to work with, much less much iron to mess around with. I probably produced only several pieces of armor to outfit twenty dwarves.

Also, I need to not let in as many performers, cause holy shit my tavern got packed rq with monster slayers and poets and bards, ugh.

Anyway, so I started smithing armor, and maybe 30 minutes goes by, after which I'm out of iron so I cancel all the work orders, and then this motherFUCKING shit happens:

See all those little bitchass capital Ns with the ~ squiggly? Those are zombies. My dwarves had been training for the better part of several months, but they were just... probably wrestling with each other and training that, cause I had 0 weapons. Mayhaps I should have made some training weapons... I guess I'll do that in the next fort. Anyway, you can see all the little faces in their pools of blood, they're all dead. All twenty dwarves. In a matter of oh, probably a minute or two. sobs due to loss of dwarfy life 

Time to let the zombies in, I guess.

!!FUN!!

Edit: Oh, the corpses were actually equipped with weapons and armor too... god dangit


😥
