Another fairly bland artifact animal trap. Pig bone and pig iron. Quality stuff there, Lorbam.
I had to slaughter that giant panda. Apparently they have to eat bamboo to stay alive and I didn't feel like fighting a losing battle trying to find ways to keep it alive.
Another one bites the dust. Found next to a pile of vomit. Definitely alcohol poisoning. I suppose there are worse ways to go.
Another migrant arrived, I guess to replace the bard I just lost. Well, since I never bother with dyers I'm making you another tavern keeper.
This is typically how I queue up tasks at glass furnaces. Put a few collect sand jobs on repeat and then an equal number of whatever it is I want to make on repeat. As long as the bags don't get claimed for something else, they'll repeat this process 'til the end of time with no resources needed to keep it going.
On the subject of glass production, I gave one of my legendary stonecrafters the glassmaking labor and the other one the pottery labor. They can keep making stone pots and crafts in their off time but I think it wouldn't hurt for them to learn some new skills. I also have two legendary bone carvers that I need to put to work.
Another year, another trade agreement. They're paying top dollar for earrings and ammunition. They must have gotten word that all I have is silver and lead for metal.
The custom images on the axes was a total wash. They seemed to have zero effect on the value during the trade. However I was already getting more than twice their base value so a few axes traded for over 8000 each. I got everything I requested and more for five silver axes.
The first glass disc traps are in place. There are four discs each, more than enough to kill anything that's wearing less than iron armor, and enough to at least soften up anything else. To that end...
I'm getting a barracks ready for a small military. I'm thinking a full squad of a mix of mace and spear dwarves and maybe a small squad of marksdwarves.
I have a few additional rooms and areas that have been sneaking their way through the cracks, but I think I'll save those for the next post to show off.
