Welcome to Blazecooks III!
Our motto is: "Our richest residents have been homeless for years."

This is a reboot of a dwarven fort that died to due massive structural collapse, which was a reboot of human-based fort that crashed due to bugs, now being rebooted with its original purpose. My goal is for this to be a multi-generational city, and it should therefore span a few hundred years if possible. Since this is a generational fort, and part of the fun is to trace bloodlines through the ages, I've added the [orientation] tag as per the instructions on the wiki (
http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Marriage) to avoid any sudden halts to any favorite genealogies.

I'm going to be posting yearly updates. I play it after work for about an hour. It should be fun to see records of a town from the time of its inception in the year 02. I copy-pasted dwarf nobles such as broker/bookkeeper/mayor etc. over into the human raws. A couple names were changed, such as Chief Medical Dwarf being renamed to Chief Physician.
