Heh.  That's the guy I kicked out of the barracks a while back.  Make sure to add that to the story.

Okay, looking over the save, a few things popped out:
One: Mask and Shadowhammer don't have weapons.  Change this, preferably.
Two: We have a cave croc.  Take full advantage of this: it can be tamed.
Three: A large amount of equipment is forbidden.  Change this.
Four: Expand the military.  Another siege will arrive sooner or later.  Disband the squad of Mask and Shadowhammer, give them weapons, and have them train other dwarfs in the use of their respective weapons.  Also, get more armor and weapons.
That's all for now.

Sorry, I should have clarified: whenZlob is done/decides he can't do the fort this time.

Oh, and despite our vampire mayor having the hold meeting job for quite a while, nothing happens. And try not to pull unlabeled levers, my aquifer project was half a disaster.

This is getting seriously annoying.  Nothing is getting done because the corridors are too packed.
13 Galena
A human caravan has arrived.  Time to test our new military squads.
16 Galena
Killing time.  Now Grim will get a chance for some action.  He’s been bothering me to let him hunt for months, but there’s hauling to be done.
20 Galena
We lost four dwarfs to that, nobody important, thankfully.  Now all their stuff is ours to take.
26 Galena
It looks like the previous overseers never thought to actually stock our stockpile with the requisite materials.  This has since been fixed.
7 Limestone
I’ve decided to expand our refuse pile.  Should be useful for keeping the smell away from the other, squeamish dwarfs.
23 Limestone
I ordered more animals slaughtered today.  I’m getting tired of tripping over them.
26 Limestone
A fishery worker was taken by a mood today.  Another useless artifact coming right up.
3 Sandstone
In order to put our dead to rest, I have ordered the construction of more coffins.  When the masons get around to it.  Who knows how long that will take.
8 Sandstone
Sweet Armok he’s still collecting stuff.
14 Sandstone
So the vampire wants us to make picks.  As if we don’t have enough already.
Oh, and the dwarf finished his artifact… cup.
28 Sandstone
MORE MIGRANTS!  WHY DOES THE MOUNTAINHOME DO THIS TO US!!!
13 Timber
Congratulations to Cyatica and baby
15 Timber
A dwarven caravan has arrived.  Well then.
21 Timber
An ambush! Time for goblin slaying.
23 Timber
Well, at least we only lost one dwar… ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!
7 Moonstone
I just learned that Firecrazy is wounded.  That’s not good, he’s one of our best miners.  Other than that, I don’t really care.  And so is Nuckles, apparently. 
8 Moonstone
One of our rangers went stark raving mad.  I have no sympathy for a criminal such as him.
11 Moonstone
Firecrazy is back on his feet!  As he is a member of the cabal, I suppose that is a good thing.
16 Moonstone
Not entirely sure how, but one of the bridges got destroyed.  I’ve ordered it rebuilt.
26 Moonstone
Bridge is back up.  Still don’t know what happened.
2 Opal
Another criminal went stark raving mad.  Who cares.
3 Opal
Crap crap crap one of the criminals went beserk. And tore apart a child.
20 Opal
I’ve been doing some renovations on the fortress, which has unfortunately resulted in some minor flooding.  Or at least, that’s what I tell them.
20 Opal
Great.  Another child taken by a mood.  Another useless artifact.  Almost certainly.
5 Obsidian
Hey!  That’s actually useful!  A sheep bone shield!
Also, all dwarfs are out of the hospital.
17 Obsidian
The goblins have arrived.  They shall be dealt with in due time.
21 Obsidian
Troll sniping time.  Feels good to get back to my roots.
28 Obsidian
Now that I am back in the military, I no longer see the need to operate this fortress any longer.  I do not know who will take the title next, only that I am no longer willing to oversee this fort.

Edit: The save! http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=8147

Oh, and Aseaheru:  Your dwarf won't like what I did with the hospital 

Do I try to kill the humans or leave them alone?
