Lets rock.

A rock pun? how intrusive.

Name my dwarf Puffer, give him 5 masonry and 1 architecture. All I need is good, cheap, sturdy stone. I like building, er, buildings and stuff.

Journal of "Puffer" Albel, miner.

So I've finally gotten him to retire. I've taken over the reins of the leadership, and we're finally gonna try to run this place right. No more narrow pathways, no more dwarves tripping over each other.

And we're going to build an obsidian farm. I can't believe that he never though of it. It'll be perfect for crafts to sell everyone. All the crafts except figurines, anyway. Those'll be saved. In a hole. For future reference. Don't ask.

Anyway, time to get back to work. Some migrants just arrived, the fort's up to twenty five. Time to pick up the useless slackers and stuff those wooden spears in their hands and put them in copper armor. See if they can't kill some kobolds with those twigs.

I've been building my forts the same way for a very, very long time. I always dig out hallways and then put workshops in niches, drop a level and build a dining room, and then my bedrooms, and expand to taste. Frankly, I'm tired of it. What's another way to go around fort design?

Hell, sign me up. I'll ask for a dwarfing with the next migrant wave, too.

It's basically another atomsmashing. The scissor-bridge fort entrance works a lot like this. It flings troops into the walls and crushes them, or leaves them vulnerable to crossdwarfs. Really useful

Burnedfeet the Woes of Merchants. I think that's a fitting name.
