We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

Oh, is that was that inexplicable 1-tile-wide passageway-to-nowhere spanning most of the fortress's vertical length was for? That's good; I was worrying that it actually did something.

I vividly remember loading up Mitchewawa's save and having no clue where anything was anymore or why the things I could find were even there at all. Keep in mind that it had only been three turns had passed since I last looked at it.

"To the left are the Spawn isolation chambers. Except for the second door on the left, which leads to Draignean's luxury suite. No, I don't know why. Anyways, isn't the Spawn's screeching just wonderful? We're trying to teach them to sing Christmas carols."

Also, I really like how the fact that we have multiple dwarves-turned-Spawn locked away within walking distance of the bedrooms has been mentioned maybe twice since my turn. I imagine the Spearbreakers dwarves are pretty desensitized by now.

Even if it doesn't say it, the screeching coupled with the general havoc they've endured probably means the inhabitants don't give a shit anymore. They've learned to tune out the screeching and they can't smell the barbarian blood anymore.

Urist stopped a dwarf, still amazed at this place. Urist asked, "Doesn't the smell and the screeching bother you?"
The dwarf looked at him strangely, "What smell? What screeching?"

Does not happen sadly. I wish it did, I would love to fight off a kobold necromancer with a bunch of bandit zombies.

If you got a big enough zombie army before retiring you probably will.

I'll rework the total time needed for a turn when I can think clearly. Also, any ideas on what Ecem's recon team should do next? Destroy a research section? Kill some important researcher?

Ninja'd: Hans, what I'm shocked by is how bad it got in such a short time. Has anyone else seen a fort become this big a clusterfuck in so short a time?


Oh, and I think Ecem's team should continue exploring the ruins and have some !!fun!! mishaps.

Well they've already stolen things and found what they're supposed to as far as they go... I suppose I could have some other contractors snoop around the ruins....

That's just it. i accident;y wrote myself into a corner here... I don't know where to go that doesn't result in complete fucking up of everything.... Except for one idea involving Mr Frog and blueprints.

How can you do that? This is Spearbreakers, the continuity here is: 'Did it happen? YES. But these things all conflict and make no sense together. Yes. That wasn't... Wat. Yes.'
