Revision as of 10:06, 1 March 2008

Yesterday, I had an ambush. My woodcutter was ambushed by a group of one goblin bowman and five swordsmen. They were invisible, until attacked him. I had never seen anything like this until 38a. Think, it's something new, should we add the article? What do you think?--Dorten 23:23, 6 February 2008 (EST)

yes definitely. I have been ambushed 3 times already in one year. These attacks seem to coincide with trading caravans. --Kingzilla 23:28, 6 February 2008 (EST)
Is this really new? I started with 38a, but from reading i never expected anything else than thieves and ambushes with every caravan.--Koltom 23:17, 29 February 2008 (EST)

Ambush messages

In my experience with last version (38a) it showed 'Ambush, curse them' on kobold thieves, and 'Amush!' on beforementioned goblins. This surely needs verification--Dorten 01:10, 7 February 2008 (EST)

I have:
38a
Kobold thieves (2): An ambush! curse them!
Goblins: An ambush! curse them!
38c
Kobold thieves (2): Thief! protect the hoard from skulking filth! (the different message may be caused by increased wealth)
Goblins: An ambush! curse them!
You can read back the whole announcements log (page up key) if you have the patience ;) --Koltom 23:17, 29 February 2008 (EST)

Enemy squad supposedly fleeing after the commander's death

Well, in my case he got caged, does that count? The squad of the 5 remaining goblin bowmen, however did not retreat, and continued to advance until pwnd by dogs. Only 1, last(after the other 4 died) goblin started retreating.
