Looks fine to me. Fancy and symmetrical at once. Welcome to hell, this game will consume you given the chance.

Thank you, I'm ready for the fun that awaits me.

I like it... I'm a fan of big circular spaces, and yours is pretty nice.

Thank you, I'm happy to be learning more elegant architecture in dwarf fortress every day. I really love the efficiency of squares, but when it comes to halls that are meant for enjoyment I try to keep things round. Definitely is more pleasing to the eye.

Beautiful fort verbose!

Thank you delphonso!

Since yesterday I have began contruction of the fort's bedrooms. I'm working to improve the mood of my dwarves as much as possible, and I notice just about every dwarf has a negative effect on their mood such as being embarrased by sleeping in public. So hopefully these bedrooms will improve mood. That being said, currently I only have 3 unhappy dwarves, which I think is good for my first fort.

Here is the bedrooms, currently only fitted with doors.


There's 64 of rooms on this floor. I'm expecting to have to make a second floor identical to this one later. I'm very lucky to have such a nice design for the bedrooms coincidentally work perfectly with the 5 staircase's placements I made before planning a room this large.

Until next time!

This is my first post on the bay 12 forums. So I'd just like to say hello here, since there doesn't seem to be a dedicated place for introductions.

My first fort has been doing quite well, but it's gotten to the point where a goblin siege is too great in numbers for my squads to take care of them, which is mostly a range issue. The goblins are ranged and my dwarves are not, so the goblins have time to shoot a slew of arrows/bolts at my military before they can get into combat which leaves me down a dwarf or too. This siege I'm just boarding up and waiting for them to pass.

I have contructed a library, and it brings me great joy to see my dwarves happily reading. I've been buying every book I can get from the caravans for a few years, so I have quite the collection. I hope I don't get any necromancers! It's worth the risk though, they seem happy. I know I would be...

I've contructed 4 new temples to specific deities which have the most worshippers as well.

On my todo list is to wait out this goblin siege, smooth a ton of floors, and make better rooms for my nobles.

Here is where the floors need to be smoothed:

Here are where my nobles will live. In the middle are the old noble rooms, on the outside will be the new ones.

Hope my first fort looks not so nooby!
