    This series is what brought me into Dwarf Fortress proper. Before this, I only knew of it as that one "really old school looking game that is incredibly complex and an eyesore", but due to your impeccable storytelling and awesome narrating, I genuinely gave it a shot. After that, I basically got hooked on it and play it semi-regularly. It has fast become one of my all-time favorite pass-time games for whenever I get craving for a relaxing and joyful time!
    Thanks a lot, man! Always a pleasure watching you!

    Skullhorror is my most favorite among Kruggsmash's masterworks. Such an amazing fortress in such a horrible premise. I come back to this one from time to time just to remind myself that every bad can be overcome and good things will come to those who manage to persevere the hardships of life.
    Thank you Krugg. Keep making more awesome stuff.

    The most important part of reanimator biomes is:
    Atom smash all corpses and parts. Have a dump zone over a cliff into a walled-off enclosed pit, have dwarves trigger a pressure plate walking to it, and have the bottom contain a raising bridge linked to it to utterly destroy anything thrown in there. You have to have a dozen or so dwarves on nothing but corpse and refuse hauling to make sure someone's available immediately whenever a corpse is made, such as your failed mood clothier, to dump the body down the chute.
