Until reading this thread, I've never considered Anvillocked a mega fort. But I guess it is!!
Before anything else, it would NOT exist without Dwarf Therapist and DFHacks clean owned, period. Exclamation F'n point.
Started in January of 2015. Embark year 1072, current year 1112. 40th anniversary.
A 40.19 fort, 6*6 forested embark, with a 1z ridge on the far north and east. Fort entrance is 30 tiles from the east side, center. The main 1*3 downstairs are just 22 tiles from east side, center. This makes the map quite a 300+ tile walk. We clear cut the map twice, and paved about 3/4 it with granite blocks. Ran out of logs.
Frantically UNpave map except for a 20 tile border, shift those block to flooring the new edge...trees are now easily "manageable" and 9. 10*10 binned granite stockpiles and 5 5*5, await the 147 masons to begin flooring. The 190*160 forest can quickly fall to 37 woodcutters.
The fort is contained in 16z levels, 112*85 a level.
300 6*6 bedrooms with 2 tile thick wall (personal palace, 1 item bed). 3 levels in use. 3 levels need the already made masterwork beds/doors placed. For the 600 haul jobs it'll create, ALL but farming will be shutdown, to get max idlers first.
Barracks are all 18*13, engraved, masterwork steel armour stands, 10 masterwork beds each.2 per block, 30 barracks/level. 2 levels.
16 catapults fire nonstop, training 30 seige ops. Ridding a mining training zlevel of rocks.
76 miners, 32 are not legendary.
Max total dwarf population reached 997. Max adult dwarfs 824.
Minimum FPS 2. (Slaughtering 239 got me back to 3)
Current population 803 adults, 123 children, 9 babes. 937 total population.
Current FPS 3. Am even seeing 4 now and then, despite z level mining ( not walled of), 77k booze and the rock pots for them, among other item counts, and I use bins, I don't atomsmash, and have not a single qsp. No minecarts, wheelbarrows abandoned years ago. Just dwarfs. Lots and lots of dwarfs.
A single game day takes 7 minutes. Not very !!fun!!. Yet
Anvillocked's goal of 1000 adult dwarves eludes me still, and if we don't get more migrants, will be impossible.
