You should come to Berkeley <| sep |> eh if I missed a joke I blame it on my lack of sleep . was there a joke ? <| sep |> I wish I had a way to get military dwarves to follow orders better . If I station marksdwarves in a certain place for a good vantage point , as soon as they see what they need to fight it seems like they decide to rush in . Likewise if I have my goddamned regular squads set up somewhere to lure goblins into my traps they chase them to the ends of the fucking earth the moment they see them whether I ' ve stationed them or not . They ignore all fucking orders and will even run out , get surrounded and die alone . So frustrating . Especially considering I must have picked a shit world because in the couple years I ' ve been running my fort I ' ve been attacked by forces with probably less than 10 goblins each . So so far I ' ve literally been able to cage ONE goblin this whole time . I was so disappointed I just dumped him in the spike pit . I ' ve designed some pretty epic defenses for this fort and haven ' t had anything that could even remotely challenge them , which sucks . I ' ve had several werecreatures over time and a couple forest titans and a giant , and every single one was murdered unceremoniously and with little effort . It ' s pretty disappointing . I guess I ' ll have to go hunting for some forgotten beasts because I ' m afraid I ' ve picked a world without a strong enough goblin population . It even appears that on the world map I ' m only a few squares away from at the least some dark pits . I haven ' t really started digging into the caves though because I wanted to be ready to handle them when the time came .
