The Sad Sonnet of ColonelTEE3

Quoted from the forums:

"""
I have some important advice that can only be acquired through drastic mistakes that few people are willing to chance :

1. Don't F--- with a colossus

2. Don't F--- with the goblins that F---'ed the Colossus

3. Goblins Can Breath Underwater.

4. Dwarves Can Not Breath Underwater.

5. Rivers on the outside DO support a flood when it has been disconnected from the original cave river.

Learn well from my mistakes, for the 3 war veteran champions that drowned a dishonorable death have no second life to live.

By these three I think I can guess what happened. Goblins can't actually breathe underwater, but a surface flood outside is supposed to be only knee-deep... In other words, as your dwarven halls filled up with water, drowning your dwarves, the goblins outside were wading about, just slightly wet.

Oh, and all hope is not lost. If you want to get rid of that perma-flood (and the goblins) there is but one way: lava.

From these, we can see that the Colonel was trying to drown some invaders outside of his fort, accidentally flooding his own fort to the ceiling, and realizing that floods outside are only knee-deep.

So sad.
