Pfft. Dwarven fireworks could melt stone ignite an underground coal fire*.

I feel like there's a bug relating to artifact cages.

Though I do feel like you should stick the sucker in your jail, you'll get happy thoughts from it.

Nevermind I figured it out! I just dug upward until dirt stopped appearing!

So you hit the aquifer?

I recognize all those words! Your name is Pelt Dunegrove.

You've been playing Dwarf Fortress for too long when you can read elven.

Alright, this place is really pretty nuts. I can't make heads or tails of it to be honest, it looks like the first building-destroyer to appear on the surface will have a straight shot at more than one hatch cover that's accessible from ground level, and thereby a straight shot into the fort. There's nothing I can really do except wall off the halls connected to these hatch covers, and it looks like someone already designated one, but the wall was never actually built.

Thus continues the fine architectural traditions Battlefailed forts are known for.

1. Always reserve barrels.
2. Pity we can't get them to drink dwarf blood.
3. I put 5 gold coin on myself as the first dwarf to die.

Well, gathering is allw ell and good, but now there's another problem.

We needed so much space to store dingo meat that now we have idiots refusing to put the fruit and plants down long enough to brew them.

Gathering is unique that they'll actually grab a ton at once before dropping it, if there's no stockpile, they'll eventually drop it outside. Forbidding it from the "v" screen also works. I've seen herbalists with *pages* of "Hauled" x.

What's the current life expectancy in Braveworks at the moment?
My guess, assuming the paltry amount of drink isn't shared so everyone gets at least one drink, I'd say a season for some people. We'll make it through the winter, but there very well may be corpses. Very sober and very dry corpses.

A season on average is an upgrade from the first fort!

Plant gathering in the caverns can get you all the underground seeds/plants. Levels up very fast too. Alternatively, cave in the brook somewhere. Ice, when caved in, should turn to water (old "how to survive on glaciers back in 40d" trick)

I'd normally say business as usual for this fort, but given who's at the helm, at this point I feel compelled to ask if any dwarfs are still alive cause ...

Looking forward to your update. I want to see how over the top you went.

Work devoured me today, didn't have enough written. Good news though, the fort is fucked! :D

Define fucked. Are we regular fucked, or are we Battlefailed levels of fuck?

Is the fort actually still standing, or did it crumble to its end.

Sure, I can do that. Fire-breath trap. But due to have the script works (it doesnt allow for a direction) it would always go towards the western direction. :/

If I remember how this all works internally, flows have a "direction" field in their structure that you can set to cause it to go in a given way; the default would be 00 which is west. You could probably set that with spawn-flow to get it to go the right direction.

Wait a moment, are you trying to let the surface horrors in, or the fortress horrors out?
Yes.

Wouldn't that cause-

Oh you FIEND. A horror-antihorror explosion would not only level the place, it would bring in an age of emptiness.

Go into the raws and add serves on break to the dwarfs so when they get ripped apart by spawn they can be isolated into all their component bits.

Let's be honest gentleman, when it comes to Spearbreakers, there's a fine line between shit post, mug post, and sane post. Oh, and the occasional game post.

None of us remember where that line is. That being said, more game updates would be double plus OK.

Gonna try to bang out the rest of the year tonight. Then commence the "Traditional Hat-Draw of Overseership."

EDIT: FUCK YOU GUYS I JUST GOT DOUBLE NINJA'D

And it's Braveworks, NCommander, ya doof.

You need to bleat like a goat for strategic reasons to counter the ninjas.
