Mrs Ast Dikecradle is the current book-keeper.  If she becomes a citizen of District F, she can still do her duties telecommuting away from The City.

This is the most complex "megaproject" I have ever seen. I love this.

I'm already getting a vibe from the silence of the military district, "bring me your tribute, war is coming!"

If the military district wants to call a small-medium size draft in exchange for protection, I wouldn't be opposed to following it, personally.

Nah, I've been busy. But yeah, basically the "We're almost, but not quite mercenaries, give us things now" idea is what I was going for. But that comes later :P

I plan to have my farmers train with (training) spears during winter.  Once I get rock nuts / quarry bush, I will follow its growing season; Spring to Autumn, and a winter break!  Olive trees will probably be the same as pig tails, Summer and Autumn only.


Cool, my local militia should be at least have a chance not to get stabbed first.  Just need leather armor and helms to start with.

Do I get the artifact bow that goes with Mr Braidedtreason, or no?

That's Mr Braidedtreason's bow, so it goes with him.  A "family heirloom" kind of thing.

Too bad he's moving to a farming colony.

I would like to counter the offer for the pick, but I would instead like to briefly rent it, and then allow the Lemducim District to purchase it. My offer is 45% off all products produced for a period of 3 years, starting at any point chosen by the Founder's District.

Please define "brief" in the above offer.  Do you mean "after a certain digging project is completed" or "after year 202 is finished", or something else entirely?

That's the thing about heirlooms, sometimes they wait around for just the right ancestor to come along. (Well, that or an estate sale, or possibly a thief...)

Long enough to finish a project.

Spoiler: Details of Project (click to show/hide)

Edit: Basically the small amount of space I think I'll need for 7 dwarfs and some crops for a year.

How's about a dorf in district R? This is quite the grand undertaking. Lots of people have talked about doing it, but I don't remember seeing anyone making this kind of organized go at it.

I'm most interested to witness it!

Alright, I'll dorf you once we start. Name/occupation preference? I'm going for a farming industry specialization.

Ahhh no wait I got confused I want to be a military dorf! This is important! I should be in district H. I'm sorry, I'm confused today. Please name him Mr. Beard. He should be an Axedwarf.

My wife, however, DOES request a dorf in district R. She says she should be named Eva, and should be a woodcutter or carpenter. Sorry again.

Considering the naming conventions, you and your wife will have to understand that "Mr Beard" and "Eva" will be forum nicknames for named dwarves, and that since you guys want to be dorfed in different Districts, that the Players playing those Districts will have to be OK with those nicknames as well?  My main function for this game is to be the host that ties all the various elements together.  (Although, having my little dudes also be doing their thing is fun too.)

I'm fine with the nickname. Not sure about district H though. Is H chaotic_skies?

TimelessBob, are you going to make a save with the burrows and citizens assigned to them so we know which once we have before building the blue print?
