    I cut my teeth on 0.31 last year and returned by chance for 0.34 a month ago, stuck away from home for work with nothing much to do and so naturaly spent the time managing idiot dwarves. I suspect I'll never have as much time as that to consecrate to DF but also never had I found it as rewarding.

    Had a bit of FUN when I realised trolls were construction destroyers and they knocked out a few flood gates on themselves, flooding out my trap strewn alternative/siege entryway.

    I'm glad I figured out how to turn off the vampiric and lycanthrope syndromes (are they syndromes?) in world gen as it was even more FUN (but not fun) when I found my legendary weaponsmiths being killed off from within.

    The general direction of travel of DF is a little odd, to say the least, the ever expanding complexity and feature list turns what is already a micro managing fest into a countdown to nervous breakdown. For me anyway. But then I'm almost certainly still Urist McNewb.
