The epic story of dikepast: the last stand
« on: August 24, 2016, 07:03:14 am »

Chapter 2 in the trilogy is here!
http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=160448.0



Hi guys today I started a new fort my other one would crash the game somehow  :'(
Anyways I think I'd like to share the whole game as it goes until the very end. If anyone enjoyed it I made my mission complete.
Dikepast year one, spring embark: 7 courageous dwarves from mountainhome finally grow the balls to start a new colony.  The dwarven race has not been faring well recently, and most of them are wiped out with only one dwarven civ being relatively large.
These heroes of the dwarves decide to settle on !!PERFECTLY_FLAT_LAND!! to start a new mountainhome (someday), being the best fort in the world. (i may do a rough story that states what happened by season and turn that into the epic story. At least you can watch it!).   

 The dwarves quickly set up farms and a dining room, eager to have sustainable food sources.  There is only one soil layer, so the main floor is going to be 1 layer below the surface.  Some of the plans for the dining room dont work because of ground level water, so the main floor becomes 2 layers down.  There a main junction hallway and a dining room along with a large food stockpile appear after lots of labor.  A masons workshop along with a carpenters workshop are erected and beds and doors are made.  Wheelbarrows, hatch covers, the list of items made grows on. A downstair led to a storage area that holds the furniture crafts, and bars/blocks.

summer 1:  The dwarves set up their bedrooms with doors coffers and cabinets (of course beds.).  They also expand the dining room to be able to hold more people. Just then migrants arrive.

The arrived (dont have to read this): a woodworker
woodcrafter (changed to stonecrafter)
bowyer (changed to manager)
Baloun the brewer
a child
a milker (destined to be tavernkeeper.)

After these people arrive, I decide to put our new stonecrafter to use by making mugs and stone crafts.
The dwarves make their dining hall a tavern and appoint the tavern keeper. 
 After a while, they also set the manager up and begin to automate things like brewing and furniture.
They expand the stone room for more workshops.
The dwarves make our farmer that I came with not able to brew, so Baloun becomes the deticated brewer.
The dwarves expect more people to arrive, so they build more workshops.
Now, the wagon is empty so the carpenter recycles it.
This time of year, the dwarves prepare for more migrants by building more bedrooms, expanding the growing capability and starting to grow above ground crops.  Lucky for them, they now eat prickle berries.  These, plump helmets, and cave wheat are grown to try and create some variation in brew.

More bedrooms are built, Baloun brews more, the planter plants more, the crafter makes more goods, life is good.
main level:
so good in fact, the mason makes a stone statue and it is put up in the middle of housing complex.

it depicts a dwarven goddess of jewels.
Suddenly, there was a shortage of cabinets.  The dwarves panicked.  But they settled to raising the priority of them.
As you probably know, nothing except bedroom production is going on so this chapter is over.

Autumn 1:  The same laidback approach to life still applied.  But, the expedition leader fortold a dark legion coming to snatch kids, kill, and hurt the dwarves scared the dwarves.  They decided to build a wall.  RIGHT as that was said, a kobold decided to try and steal something.  This set the wall 'in stone' (get it hahahahhha).
while blocks were being made, a room was carved out for the hens and nestboxes were made too.
WHILE that was happening, a depot post was made and a caravan arrived.
the liaison was a blabbermouth.
i refuse to do a trade agreement this year. they want thread and anvils tho. good i guess????
dont know what to buy so i get a flask ;D
Damn, a honey badger suprised buttsecksed my carpenter.

the honey badger didnt do too well.
the other guys ran , and i assigned a random person to attack.  My woodcutter punched the honeybadger in the face, pulping it and it exploding in gore.
Now, some more migrants arrived.
The arrived:
fishery worker (changed to wood burner)
a child
a gem setter (changed to every metalsmith job bside furnace operator)
a farmer (changed to record keeper)

The nest box room is now built since nb have been made

Now there is MORE food about and that is good.
The dwarves made sure our new record keeper had an office and was working.
Now was the time to get metalworking up.
Right then, the manager noticed that the mason was horribly overworked.  She made a note to get some more.
Sadly, the ignorance Dikepast residents have is large.  They forgot to put a mule in a pasture and it starved.
After some time the metalworking side of things has been satisfied for now.

(my main floor)
Almost done with the wall as well.
Thus ends first year of autumn, 125.

Winter 1, 125: The citizens want to focus on getting the wall down as quick as possible.

only halfway right now
As this is happening, The miners are carving out a room for wood to hold wood to make charcoal for fuel.
Another kobold tries to attack, but it flees as it is spotted.
Ok there is a snatcher. First time i saw 1. I decide to assign a some idle guys into a makeshift milita to attack em.
Baloun and a carpenter bravely join and charge out of the hole to attack.



SHITFUCKSHITFUCKSHITFUCK

I locked the kids doors it worked
he went to escape i trapped em in the metalworkin room

hes f*ked


the deed is done.
I AM SPONGEBOB, DESTROYER OF EVIL!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sijOkwGBPWw


whew
time to take his goblinite hahahahha
baloun now has the first kill of the day and the other guy is now named Spongebob
this goes to show i do need a military and some defenses.  while i wait for more blocks to be made i make more bedrooms.

now the wall is done


My automated iron system is up and i will soon be making someguy a soldier.
Bedrooms, cabinets and coffers everywhere.  Enough to turn someone mad (nope). 
Our metalsmith knows of our lack of personell.  He volunteers to do all the metalsmithing jobs.
We sure need a migrant wave bout now.
Well, I decide to bring the wood into the walls of the fort.
Look what I found?????

thisll make metalsmithin a breeze
I have decided to start makin barracks

Now i should just get everything ready for the new kids on the block...

ok i have gotten my lignite coke up and running so thats good
