| Summary | 0010099: Invasion from un-dead almost immediately after starting fortress. | ||||
| Description | I started out my fortress and after only one season had passed, I was put under siege by 3 un-dead. At this point, I had only had time to mine out a small area, create two stockpiles and get my carpenter's workshop and my still placed down. I think that the problem was that I detailed a lot of my walls making the fortress appear to be more advanced that it was. I'm not sure if this is a bug or if it is just intentional mean fun but I decided to pop it on here in case it is a bug. | ||||
| Additional Information | I am using DFHack but I don't think that that is affecting it. | ||||

It's not a bug. Black towers don't care about "fair play" and can attack at the first season change if they are in range. Thus, if you don't want to face that threat you should embark out of range of black towers. It can also be mentioned that if the threat is known, it's easy to just lock the undead out and hunker down inside the safe facilities built during the first season. Keeping grazers alive during a siege can become a challenge, of course. |

According to Toady, an early undead attack is just bad luck (0007417:0029991). |
