Tick tick tick.

Tomorrow is one week from save being posted.
Two days for rest from midterms, and time for uploading all this info x_x

Upload text and save link, worry about pictures later.  Problem solved. 

I fail to understand how if your internet connection is anything faster than smoke signals there would be a problem.

Indeed. Tir, even if you can only post the save file and a very crude description of the turn, that would be preferable to the alternative, which would mean your turn gets skipped and you lose all of your work! You can edit in more stuff later, but the time limit won't budge.

Can I be moved down the list as well? I can't guarantee being able to play the full turn till the start of December.

Yep :D
And text description?
...Ok .-.
(How do I deliver a textual recap?)

Because I was really planning to put in a story for it :< Which...coincidentally is half-baked at the moment. Will finish up later on and upload the save.

Hope you enjoy, Jim!
Note ahead, I'll be detailing the base defenses given that I used a switching cue of lever-bridge defense; we aimed not to wall in, but provide passage. No use of cruddy traps and such.

Just pure dwarven steel as our defense. :3

You give a brief update now with the save, then edit in the whole story later.

I'm busy this morning, but I will drop the hammer on this turn at my next available convenience.

I think you really should now :'(
I've been trying like hell to upload the whole thing but it won't upload [in time anyway] -.-
Grr this. So much. Had a lot accomplished. :-\
Creation of formal tombs, bedspaces, workshops and storages, frontal gateway, "portcullis", lever-bridge network, fast caravan escape (without walling off the edge of the map), revived military, shipment of iron, addendum to the crannog...
Strike me off the list? I was thinking about how a move down works but considering the large file sizes...>___>

On that note, SERIOUSLY increase the staircase size.
In the first unpause of the year when I remanaged manually the whole dwarf list into specialized-...
In which draft occurs...
Anyway. Major problems met? Err, let's just say something like
Spoiler: this (click to show/hide)
is NOT something you'd like -___-
(had to cancel out all the other mining projects just to get the stairway dug out as a priority...)
Funny thing--I can see the corpses (...and how they died :S) yet they still have to be found? The latter saw the former anyway...

On that note!
Constructing on the crannog was fun ._.
I like how deconstructing and reconstructing places the material on an adjacent space instead of letting it drop down..

...bluh. >_>

Edit: As an idea to the bridge defense made in the early Slate [Slate 7 actually, just before I finished off that ONE BLOODY UNDEAD CAMEL with a nice bolt to the face so outside reclamation {and elf trade} can continue.]
...You've no idea how annoying it is to trade with only barrels ;_;
Spoiler: Draft (click to show/hide)
> Creatures may get down from a z-level (ie our one tile walls) but they cannot reach UP 1 z-level. This design was used in the previous fort (before YAY JUDGEMENT fears came in).
> Yellow = scaffholding for bridges//resupport between the mainland and the off-short site. Bridges added to our main passage. Red areas denote a meeting of bridges. Green areas denote markstowers. Used an earlier pic because of ease of imagination.

Aww.


I'm guessing the spot on the river right by the edge of the map ate those dwarves?  I had about one a month fall in there, but they all got right back out.  I think they were trying to path across there?
