I wrote in "Gas Mask Man!" over the picture, but someone else added the sweet 'stache.

And yes, I put in the order for rock coffins on every mason shop.  It's what happens when 100 dwarves die in one turn.  I didn't think I'd actually run out, but hey, that's what happens.

On another note, are the dwarves still tantruming?

Problem area number 2:



I have no idea what is going on here but who ever is responsible will burn for the idiocy.

Oh sorry man
I was trying to set up a spot for fishing but I ran out of time
I was gonna have grates along the middle of the bridge and walls around it

I added the stache  ;D. And no problem fault, I decided the entire area needed to be floored over. Oh yeah and btw, I accidently mined out a wrong part of the wall so there's water flowing out there, anyone see if the can fix it?

When I started my turn, only Brak Obama was tantrumning, and he's currently bedridden. The mood of the rest of the fortress ranges from quite content to very happy, so the whole thing has pretty much stabilized.




26th Felsite

Turns out that due to the lack of jails, Captain of the Guard Crash Stuntman opted to instead beat up Brak Obama. With a broken hand, Obama is unable to carry out administrative duties. I have taken over the jobs of manager, hoardmaster and broker.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I have just noticed that none of the children in the fortress are wearing any clothes. They make up for this by being covered with many layers of vomit, mud and blood.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Eew.



11th Hematite

A human caravan has arrived!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

As we're all too busy dumping narrow clothing into magma and sorting through the leftover possesions of the dead, I shall not activate the repeating spike mechanism.



16th Hematitle

A goblin scatcher attempted to kidnap the child Murul Idathnish. He was standing next to our champions when he revealed himself, and response was swift and painful.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Brak Obama has been reelected as mayor, despite being completely useless. I ought to dispose of him somehow.



19th Hematite

Goblins ambushed glassmaker Sodel Onulanam while he was outside hauling. Legendary miner Fath Asttan came to his rescue, skewering two of his attackers with his pickaxe while the military finished off the rest.



25th Hematite

Our dungeon master was rapidly depleting the fortresse's stockpile of caged mountain gnomes by attmpting to cage them, then being interrupted by them and beating them to death. Turns out someone had ordered all the mountain gnomes to be moved to a cage near the demon pits. For what purpose, I have no idea.

A deathbringer(the local term for some kind of elite pump operator) has been possesed, and has claimed a craftdwarf's workshop.



4th Malachite

The possesed deathbringer has created an artifact!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Yes, yes, its pretty. Now get back to work.



6th Galena

Alas, I have reached the limit of my term. I hereby pass on the fortress to the next unlucky dwarf.

NOTES
-The housing complex is incomplete, with doors and furniture of some of the bedrooms missing.
-The underground river still needs to be completely paved over.
-The dwarves are busy dumping all the narrow clothing into a dump zone in the magma forge area to reduce stockpile clutter. This may take a while. A very long while.
-If you are going to open the floodgates to the artificial cave river, remember to remove the rock at the bottom first.

The resulting party killed 20 dwarves, crippled 2 more and the remaining 9 managed to get along and have a nice party.

A couple things:
-I was putting all the mountain gnomes, goblins, and anything else we've captured and putting them in a cage right in front of the walled-off demon pits as our last line of defense.  I'll add a PoI on the map, and it still needs to be linked to a lever.
-The deathbringers (as their names suggest) should be soldiers, but I needed to demilitarize our non-champion dwarves to give us more workers.
-I couldn't upload my save to the DFFD either.  I ended up using SaveFile.


Also, I uploaded the map after DemonicSpoon's Turn.  Go and add some PoIs.

Just a quick update. My return to the boards is being delayed by the nastiest flu this side of the continent. Will be back once I can think, or breathe. Whichever.

DS: Sure thing.

I have a scheduling issue. I can either do the game on the 20th (or before) or the 28th (or after)

Ask one of the earlier poeple if you can swap with them then.

I believe ravingmaniac used it as a extra day? And it's your turn yes.

Well, the file download isn't working for me, says that my IP already has a file in progress.  I'm too tired to work on it tonight anyway.

Edit: Downloading from a different computer worked. Shall begin construction.
