is that top or side view?

Side, I make very vertical fortresses, never straying more than twenty or so spaces from the central staircase.

same here. i also love to play around with rivers and shit.


ah yes i can see it now.

i personally always stay close to the surface. and rarely ever build anything there. other than few fortifications.


the fort i linked is one step down from the surface and under it is just the stockpiles and water system. so the green(which i think is grass?) is a hill then? or is it flat land?

Yeah it's a hill, I guess the drawing feels more obvious because I'm so used to the map but for someone who hasn't actually seen my fortress it wouldn't be straightforward. Other than the lake and a plateau where my cap and silos sit, the entire map is like 25 z levels of steep hill. I love cliffs and hills for building. Feels dwarfy.

HOLY ARMOK THAT IS AMAZING

That giant white thing in the caves freaked me out. I don't know which god you pissed off, but your fort is screwed.

Bahaha plump helmet men with spears!
