GREAT game and yes that image describes it perfectly. It took me awhile to finally get what I was seeing. I highly recommend following along with the YouTube tutorials. Expedites the understanding and with it the fun.

more testimonials of awesomeness!! :

-One of my dwarves babies just got kicked by a mountain goat a few times and has a few broken bones however his mother won't take him to the hospital, do i just have to wait untill he grows up?his medical page says diagnosis required.


-causing a cave-in over a magma pipe to 'see what happens' then found out 10 z levels down that I had dug right up along the magma pipe, and the cave-in punctured the roof through all that magma, which sent red hot death flowing through my living quarters

-Deciding to sell a captured Dragon (stored next to my booze stockpile) to the Elves for kicks.

-one of the new immigrants i'd recently trained to champion wrestling just arbitrarily decided to go outside and jump in the magma pipe. And not die from it.

He was down there for three years killing imps, fire men, magma men and magma fiends (modded critter) before i finally noticed, checked and temperature was on, wondered if maybe my dwarves had bugged out and i'd accidentally made them magma immune or something. So i rigged up a system to make myself an under-magma fortress! Awesome right?

Turns out that magma immunity was a bug unique only to that single dwarf. He also appears to require no food and sleep, so he chilled down there for another few years before some more immigrants came and i started trying to rebuild (now with a good portion of the mountain flooded with magma, which was oozing all over one of the lower plains.
