First post with images and stuff. I have no idea how formatting works, so this comment might be changed assuming I can figure out how that is done

I investigated the Hell of Emancipating in Legends Mode and there are a few interesting tidbits.  Since worldgen ended HoE has launched an all out war on everyone, yes that includes itself .
At first glance it seems that this war is going well for HoE because it has expanded rapidly in the last few years

However most of these sites are low in population and taken from weak elves offering very little resistance. Despite their expansion HoE is not lead by competent generals actually there is much evidence that suggest the opposite. . Quite probably as a result of this the Old Nets are doing pretty well in this war even though HoE has far more manpower than any other civ in this world with 11k trolls 10k ogres and 8k goblins compared to 3k dwarves in the Old Nets. The other reason for the successful defense of most of the Old Nets is that all but two offensives have been launched against Breadbowl whose dwarves are sturdier than most. The two other offensives have been far more successful: one of them lead to the conquest of Hatchetpatterns.
.
The fates of the Old Nets and Breadbowl are tied together with an adamantine rope, should  Breadbowl fall The Old Nets will follow soon after.

Yeeeahhh, gonna hafta say "almost set the place on fire a few times" doesn't really count as an update, Gwolfski.
         
This succession farm has been characterised by some very detailed and interesting storytelling, so I think we're all expecting a wee bit more than single-sentence commentary.

((I'm travelling, so dont have much time but here goes something:))

The duke's ghost was floating around the smoldering buidlings

Oh dear. Why? Why must all good things end this way? At least we have strawberries. However, I fear that I may be forgotten soon! This cannot be allowed to happen. Whatever shall I do?

Some time later

Oh, I know! I shall have a tavern built in my name! Oh yes! Hmm... where shall I put it? Ah, here! perfect! That building looked useless anyway. A nice tower will improve it. Get some walls here...

Some planning later

OI! you! Yes, I'm a ghost and I'm talking to you. Now listen up, cos it seems you're the only one who knows how to engrave! See that new building? There's plenty of exposed rock. Smooth it and carve engravings about me- oh, I'm the duke, don't ask- and you shall be named the Duke's Engraver!

-Yes sir!

Good good....

A few cave wheat beers later

Stone blocks will not do! We need rock! Homely rock! It seemse there is a cart filling station near the magma vent! Yes!

A near-catastrophe later

Oh... Not good at all.... DUMP THAT WATER NOW! Oh... safe.....

I think there is version change weirdness but no explicit modification of raws to my knowledge.

Is your plan really to flush water into hell, and have the CARP marines fight them without threat of flame or disease?  If so, you are awesome, and one of the greatest DF military visionaries I've seen yet ( not that I've seen that many, or any, for that matter )
