so a normal fort is fun and all but the challenges are where its really at.
And i believe with all the new features we should think up some more ways to have "fun"

For your first challenge, I challenge you to complete a single post of at least 2 sentences with correct punctuation and capitalisation. Currently you're 0/8 :P.
For your next challenge, go and plant a forest in hell. It needs more flowers down there.
Note: I have no idea if this is actually possible. What happens to muddy ground in hell? If it doesn't grow, what happens if you cast obsidian and make it muddy?
-
Cast obsidian can be farmed on (which is awesome).
-
Mmmm...Hell flowers.
I should think that a tastefully arranged bed of sweet pod red and quarry bush grey would lighten the mood a little.
-
Make sky diving pets, from heaven above.
Atleast 400 high in the air.
-
Waterfall from max Z to hell, no interruptions along the way.
then have a tree farm down below, yes.

Oh come on, that's not fair because his FPS will go to shit.
-
Make your fort a model of your place of work/education.
-
Legendary dining room in Hell. Preferably with a magmafall.
Beat the demons with only speardwarves.
-
Attempt to capture (in cages) every single trader that comes to the fort. When their civilizations wage war, attempt to capture all their soldiers as well. You cannot kill a single trader/soldier, nor can you let any get away.
-
I modded in a civilization of flying, buildingdestroyer:2 orc things, who should hopefully be able to use bronze or steel. Also I embarked on a glacier. We will see how that goes.

Heaven to Hell:
Build a tower to the maximum z-level (on a mountain map for extra height, remove the mountain) with your fortress at the top (aside from the trade depot). Make the fortress out of cast obsidian, entirely self-sufficient (Remember to bring plenty of supplies for moods!) with water and magma pumped up from the ground.
Give every dwarf their own bedroom of smoothed/engraved obsidian. Have a variety of crops in farming areas, and as much fancy architecture as possible.
When ready, send one lone miner down to hell and breach it, and then seal the stairwell/ramps.
Last as long as possible against the flying threats, and then battle your way down the tower.
Optional: include a self-destruct lever that will drop the entire fortress onto the breach, sealing it again. Reclaim and build to the top once more.
Bonus points: Make the tower and suspended fortress out of wood, and refer to it as Yggdrasil.
-
I challenge you to make Hell Freeze Over.
I'm guessing you will probably have to use a cave-in to expose Hell to the surface, then drop water in it until it all freezes.
-
Make all your immigrants military and pull your hair out taking care of 200 dwarves with your starting 7 civilians.

...will probably have to use a cave-in to expose Hell to the surface...
This is impossible.
