They do have a rune for that, but only use them for important things.

We don't actually know that the we are pre-skaven. Its quite possible that they might be an escaped Moulder experiment or something.

@picklepikkl On the library vote, if people are at all interested in making a staff, we should start stocking up on Dragon books so we don't get scammed.
Our money really is going down fast.

So they normally just hunt an area until no food then move on. Not usually for sustainability.

[X] [WE] Scavenge the Gauntlet
Though it's become less of an attempted invasion and more of a source of entertainment to the greenskins forcing their less-favoured underlings to throw themselves against the Dwarven defences, the Underway passage from Black Crag to Karak Eight Peaks is still a constant flow of greenskins. Though they're unlikely to make any real contribution as the battle is one of logistics rather than martial ability for the Dwarves, it will keep them reliably and safely fed, and they will be crediting most of those meals to the Dwarves.
[X] [BOON] Save it as a trump card to exploit an opportunity or address an emergency.
[X] [ROOM] Gyrocopter Hangar
Includes a retractable landing pad and a reinforced outer door that cannot be easily distinguished from stone from the outside. The Eye is less accessible from here than it would be to a balcony landing pad.
[X] [ROOM] Provision Room
A room filled with provisions and water sufficient to sustain a single person (and their dog) for a year.
[X] [ROOM] Explosives Laboratory
A room with enough reinforcement and baffles to withstand all but the most inadvisable of experiments.
[X] [ROOM] Vault
To keep safe your wealth, your secrets, and your miscellaneous esoterica.
[X] [LIBRARY] spend up to 300gc on Books about the Wood Elves of Athel Loren, Athel Loren itself, and its numerous magical denizens.

Not, really. They're rare enough that those found end up as familiars, rather than test subjects. And doing tests on the familiars of Wizards is one of those things that ends up with you being exploded by a fireball and it being declared an unsolvable mystery for the ages, like that University professor that did dissections on Dwarves and was found dead of a strange and mysterious axe-related malady.
Their primary prey was Skaven, which does tend to warp the equations of what is and isn't sustainable.

Wizards being comfortable is a military application.

We don't have to make a our staff out of dragon bone. There are many other materials that would work.

I think they just have never had the ability to over-hunt an area, especially given that their main prey was Goblins and Skaven.

So people have spent time asking what option with the we would be best for us to pick.
Personally, i am wondering what option with the We would be best to pick for the We.
I'd like something that makes the We as independently secure as possible, hunting the mountains seems the best bet for now, until/unless we can teach them how to raise cattle or something.

It isn't like it is going to go to us. Likely to be finders keepers.
From the update:
I haven't forgotten the vaults; they will be part of the council meeting.
Moulder books will be part of the second stage of translation.

If they found anything weird then it's our work to figure it out, that likely includes recovered Skryre devices and moulder weirdness. And it's not just greed talking, I want to know if they managed to recover the original vaults or if they were looted, along with any other lost works like Bok or the prototype thrower, lots of flavor and amazing imagery to be had in opening old vaults and abandoned enemy holds.

Can we suggest King Belegar to have one be commissioned? Sustainable food supplies for the We will be critical for K8P's economic growth, and we'll be able to keep the Undumgi morale very high with fresh Imperial foodstuffs until local substitutes can be produced.
Or is Kragg bashing his head against Bok already?
The We are their own sustainable food supply. And Undumgi morale is about as high as it could possibly be.

Sustainable food supplies for everyone is important for k8p economic growth. The We are actually easier to feed then many because the orc just keep coming.

Silly spooders. Mathilde needs to teach them about diversifying assets and stock portfolios. Many webs safer than one web. Many We better than one big We.

The Undumgi aren't uniformly, or even majorly (if my impression is correct) Imperial expats.

Well, there is Many We out there, we're just only interacting with the one nest.
I'm thinking 'scavenge the gauntlet' for now, with an eye towards eventually pivoting to the economic 'live critter for spider silk' option once Black Crag stops being such a nuisance. Helping to fight greenskins also gives a good impression with other dwarfs, some of whom might appreciate having some neighbors who consider goblins and Skaven 'lunch' and good dawi as 'not-lunch', even if they don't get involved in the silk trade. Imagine what Zhufbar could get up to with a semi-reliable supply of silk and an extra layer of spider friends hanging around their mountain home.
Well up until we start making Windherder based enchanted items. And even then, those are probably best NOT in our body

Given that the We is a collective intelligence, you might liken their way of Hunting to a person using many hands or tools to get food. You might change up what or how you eat, but using one hand to hold chopsticks to eat your wonton soup while you're simultaneously hand-gobbling jello is a bit of a juggling act and will take some practice, even when you've gotten over the initial "why would anyone want to do that" phase.

I can't help but think we'll be needing this sooner or later.
Though I'd be fine with asking for a few more Master Runesmith-made defensive and utility items. If anyone can stack buffs it'd be runesmiths. I would like to not die.
