I can't believe this happened, which really pisses me off.

- I just finished building an updated base when and was just about to log off when the game hits me with a Troll raid. Before I had a chance to react a Troll with a log kills me and destroys my portal and bed with one shot.
- I build a raft and get to where the raid is still happening and decided to wait it out sitting at the perimeter until it stops. One of Trolls go out into the ocean and is able to reach me with just the top half of his head above water. I try to move away from him, but the wind and paddling won't allow me to break away from him. He destroys my boat, so I swim for it and die inches from shore.
- Make another raft and a storm starts halfway back, so I decide to wait it out at an island I saw. There are actually 2 Black Forest islands, one with a Troll cave and the other with a Crypt. My raft gets stuck in the shallow water between them and a Skeleton with I bow kills me from the raft.
- Make yet another raft and finally make it back to the base, which is half destroyed. After I start to rebuild it the log Troll from the raid shows up. Since it's the middle to the night and can't handle both the Troll and Greydwarves at the same time I make a run for it going to hide in a nearby crypt I already explored until morning to face the troll then and kill him.
- I then go back to my main base to repair all my weapons before logging off when the game hits me with another Troll raid. I get outside in time, but the Troll with the log kills all 4 of my wolves. I do my best to take out that Troll before the rock one, but get killed.
- Respawning back at the repaired base I go back through the portal and get hit by the log Troll before I 100% exit it.
- I do it again making it through this time. I grab my stuff and kill the log Troll just after the raid timer expires.

I didn't have any raids for over 100 days and then the game hits be with 2 within less than 7 days. Stuff like this makes me regret re-installing this game from last time crap similar to this a happened.

Why do you not have your bases protected with trenches earthen walls etc etc?
