ok, let me start out by saying, this is a nice little operation these dorfs have going. i was sent to take over as the fortress became a barony, as a sort of changing of the guard. first thing i noticed though, we are tragicly low on booze, so ive set up our stills to start brewing some of the plump helmets they bought from the caravan. the second thing i noticed, was that we are also very low on traps. if something gets in, we have to have a line of defense behind the militia, or we are all going to get FUCKED UP. metalsmiths are on it now. third, we arent growing any plump helmets, which is also going to change soon.

got a wave of migrants, including a high master suturer and a promising dorf who has been assigned to the militia training squad.

caravan left, bought a bunch of trap components and anvils from them, ordered more trap components. we need fucking trap components.

digging out farms, training dorfs, so far so good.

There's an 8-deep row of cage traps between the depot and the fortress, as well as a tertiary lockdown bridge.

Was the militia dwarf a swordsdwarf? If not, put him with the high-tier squad, he'll train faster and won't contaminate the swordy skill set.

Trap components are probably  not a good thing to buy, due to their gigantic cost. Buy trinkets and armor, then melt them at the magma forges and reforge them into armor for the millita and, of course, trap components.

If you absolutely must employ weapon traps, use spiked balls or maces and warhammers. It's the safest way to deal with the undead scourge.

Ok, sorry, but that was where I was forced to end. I'm going for huge trap feilds of maces and hammers, with some other random bits. The promising militia dorf was a adequate armor user, dodger, shield user, and biter. He is in the swordsdorf squad.

Somehow I don't see how competent biter should qualify you for zombie-fighting duty in the long run.

The expert wrestler wrestled a super fast invisible zombie goblin in armor to death, and punched the limbs off another two, so don't underestimate the striking skills.

Well, good to see we're still going strong.  As for the invisible zombie killer, that definitely is an indicator of skill.

Wait how did that even happen?

Oh ... nevermind. Apparently the one year old Kivish Ilidcatten is strong enough to take on a GCS. I don't even...

Sorry for the lack of update. If I don't update at least once tomorrow, kill me. Dark souls 2 is distracting me.

Murder Time.
Do you want to continue, or just pass the save on early and focus on Dork Soles 2?

The purple overseer hat weights heavily on one's head. Some would argue that the leadership of Doomforest is uneasy to bear for too long. Others would simply suggest that we don't craft the next overseer hat out of rutile.

Xub13 will be up for the turn next, assuming he's still here and peregrine fails to respond. Xub, mind assuring us you haven't wandered off?
