If you are going to that much effort, Torak, you should make the bridge out of blocks.

I am upgrading my computer to better handle DF (among other things, like Oblivion). On the other hand, a gaming computer is mostly about the graphics card, which doesn't reflect the needs of DF much.

Umgannakuthamud, "The Ambiguous Braided Thunders", a Rope reeed vest

This is a Rope reed vest. All Craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is decorated with Rope reed and Maple. It is made from Rope reed cloth. This object menaces with spikes of Rope reed.

Somehow, I can't help but feel unlucky with this one. That is the last time I buy large quantities of Rope reed cloth from the caravan!

Elephants are cute and cuddly.

Its the carp you need to worry about.

Hunt the local animals with your bare hands!  

Where I would diverge would be to use the second metal to make an axe, and thereafter produce large quantities of wooden barrels to fill with alcohol. Very well reasoned.

Also, if you have magma as well as sand, plants and metal on the map, you can get away without the extra wood.

Alcohol is cheap (2 per unit) and every 5 units iirc gives you a free barrel (worth 10 pre-made, 3 if you just bring the wood and make it yourself) which needs to be factored into the calculations.
