Accept Proposal 0001 with 2 war dogs.

Well, it seems skaltum extends his turn. He'll finish by the end of this week hopefully before weekend. Gyron is maybe on Sunday.

Journaling is welcome. I'll later make computer paintings over the engravings in the fortress. I'll also make other artistic visions of the fortresses (at least my own, and the view from my fortress) as it develops. These will occupy the first page of this thread!

Granted. The world economy mysteriously optimises to produce a maximum amount of cheesesticks eliminating all forests for new cattle farms so that anyone in starvation or just hungry is now fed with cheesesticks. This only lasts for so long as the invironment holds against the increasing amount of natural gases emitted from the rotting corpses of cattle people don't want to consume because they're already sated with cheesesticks and the carbondioxide produced by the cattle. Then the ecology collapses bringing down most of the human civilisation except those cheestick eating bastards who mutate in the process and eventually are able to colonize Venus with grand success.

I wish that *the future generations would colonize Mars instead.

I'll put a map up later, it's a pain in the ass to upload to DFMA for me.  If someone did it for me I'd add POIs sooner.  Probably not really gonna be a narrative or pictures because I didn't take notes and am a hypocrite.  Turn went well, though, spent most of my time on the army and a new set of fortifications.

nil, your turn was glorious.

My clan's name is Dwarven Moonblight. But what shall be the name of our nation?

The immigrants will move to the bunker which is opened and then they will find their homes there. The challenge is to make enough farms and so that there won't be problem of supplies over the 2 next years which will be no-construction time

Turn 1

11th Malachite

The clans are migrating to opposite sides of the valley.

12th Malachite
We are building three strongholds around the valley.

13th Malachite
Everyone has been busy, except the Atreides, because me and 'Skal' did everything for them.

Two kinds of enemies have trapavoid, Chaos Dwarves and Orcs. Neither are an immediate concern, as the Orc have been changed to act like normal goblins, and chaos dwarves tend to ambush much earlier then they atteck, so there will be warning. Cage traps are a viable defensive measure, although limited. How the stockpiles are arranged I don't know. Originally, booze production and storage was supposed to be contained just north of the dining room, but labreck changed a lot of things.

Yeah and I was going to make the dining room into a food storage again and a new magma dining room to the south of the current dining hall. But I just messed things up a few times so I ended up with no time for more expansions.

btw, have you mined the copper northeast of the magma pipe?

I strongly vote in favor of using Tweak to create an infinite water source, or barring that start an entirely new map (easy for me to say as someone who hasn't played yet, although I'd be willing to wait longer and let those who've already played go again if that's what it takes).  I've seen water shortages sap the fun out of way too many of these.

I lean too

They died again, god damn it

Oh! Maybe I forgot to change "dwarves may go outside" switch on when I saved,
what was it? 'O' and 'I'? Can't motorically remember the shortcut.
or maybe it was O+R.

 although it is an autosave so my normal mental processes didn't automatically do that thing. If you read my post you noticed that I didn't allow dwarves to go outside AFTER I closed up the fort, they treat the farm cave as outside because there are tunnels that lead outside but cannot be accessed by the siegers from above because they're "dug deep" :S

The dwarves keep rushing into the cave but stop at its entrance because they think they're doing something they shouldn't do and that fucks up their normal routines.

1st Obsidian 302

We have started te construction of the city of the dead nearby the farms. The living quarters are filled with stone so it's difficult to habitate them before the constructions are finished.

11th Obsidian 302
Trade has been poor this year due to a continuous siege to our fortress. The diplomat we let in the fortress was so dissappointed in us. I wonder if the caravans return next year.

We have been busy finding water and picking the tunnels and brewing more drinks this fall of the year. I wish that the city of the dead will not fill up before the children play in our living quarters.

//PsyberianHusky have you ever created a map file? we could upload a compressed map after your turn - I just didn't have time to do that
