Bay 12 Games Forum

Having placed my fort on a steep mountain, including whole platforms of stone which will take many months to smooth, I've decided to mine a place for my depot which will lead to the outside from the left. Now, I have a question:
I remeber that in order to get the caravan in the 2D version, you had to conncet the road to the right edge of the map. Does it matter where I place the caravan in this version(both hight and left-right)?

Thanks for your help.

First, I think i should introduce myself. I've been lurking around these forums for months, and I have some experience in DF, some of it thanks to these forums. I also have an "adventure world", which is a world in which I had had little success before I decided to finally give up my attempts at making successful forstresses there, and instead have adventures in it in case I needed a break from fortress mode. Now, during my mission to kill an undead pikeman in a ruin, I found a decorated bone ring and picked it up, so I could later sell it. When I inspected it, however, I saw this:
"On the item is a well designed image of asnur Smashesdmartyred the demon by Stukos Amugnil. Asnur Smahedmartyred is in a fetal position. The artwork relates to the imprisonment of Asnur Smahedmartyred in adamntine deep within the south fingers a time before time."
When I later visited on of my abandoned fortresses, I found an engraving of a demon, and examining it said the same thing about the same demon in the same south fingers.
So now I wonder, do the dwarves know about these demons when they found fortresses and mine adamntine? Did the ruin in which I found the ring had anything to do with the demon? And how did the records about the demon survive if it had been locked in a time before time?

Btw: If any of you care, Slartibartfast revealed DF to me.
