That or they move into the megaproject and the fort can make extra cash for charging people visiting it's haunted... somehting.
It's kinda pointless to create a paid attraction in a fort you have to offer unimaginable riches to people to arrive to, don't you think?

Dwarven tourism. Just because 90% of your group will die is not a reason to not go on a wonderful vacation.

The only thing that happened in general was the death of 71% of the fort, and that wasn't really worth mentioning.

Well, since i haven't had time to run the fortress, i'll just answer some questions.

No, wait, i got this; "Failcannon's doing just fine in the hands of arcangelsd.  What's the worst that could possibly happen?"

That said, what's the current pop with the migrants? 9? Over 10?

A lot of things. I'm afraid of activating the STFO bacuse we have at least a FB waiting for it in the ocean, for getting an example.
A fun fact about FB: the pathing seems to be so horribly broken, that the beasts are rendered harmless by their indecision when it comes to certain point in the fortress. To show: a path was left undiscovered and unchecked for about a year. At least 3 FB had access to it. One is patrolling the food stockpiles near the forges, and two more are LOCKED FOREVER in Lordslowpoke's quarters (yes, the ones that gizogin disturbed) And by locked I mean that one of them hasn't moved an inch in an entire year.
And the pop... We were 9, 2 more came, but as mekboy kicked the bucket, we're exactly ten poor souls.

How is the Project That Goes By Many Different Names going?

Fine, just needs 8 pumps more, and it'll be done. Also: STFO, please, just call it STFO xD

Unless we're talking about Mormota here I don't think that'd be a problem.

...it's exactly what's going to happen isn't it?

I'm more afraid of Dariush. He seems to have INSANE wrestling skills (Or at least some insane stats). And he bites. HARD.
And Darvi too. He has developed some kind of Crossbow-fu, as seen when he fatalitie'd a kobold with that copper crossbow (Yes, the excerpt of combat report that I uploaded was a finisher move, that makes the crossbow-lodging al more badass).
And our resident BOSS, Gizogin. Seriously, that guy got some mad luck, there at Failcannon.
The only ones that seem harmless now are Aussie, because he always disappear when a fight breaks up, the poor unnamed inmigrant medic, Erica, and myself.
Mormota and Catalyst FUN potential is left uncontested, of course.

Truly I don't know. You seem to have it even before I put you in a archer squad. But, for reasons that I can't even wonder to know, you just don't want to fire a shot from it, preferring instead to forcefully bash your way into enemies, in the true dwarven style. I'm thinking in giving you a hammer... but you get to keep the crossbow xD

So I was right, and Erica has possessed 3 other women and is some sort of sexist masculine-phobic lesbo-ghost... Or something like that... You'd think that at least once out of four opportunities my dwarf would have ended up male...

The non-euclidean architecture of Battlefailed is driving the FB:s crazy.  :P

You should see what happened when demons stormed my fort - the corridors drove them so mad that most of the horde ended up stuck at a tree in one of the cistern channels and just sat there.  It was rather embarrassing watching the other ten or so go through the fort on their own wrecking the place.

Yes, the mason is a woman xD

What about Mekboy and Urist, though?

Mekboy's dead, man, dead! I think you commented on it earlier... whatever.
Urist is tame, harmless too.


can I claim that one?

Yup you can! Deathsword.. what number?
Enjoy a life in comfort in the hospital, deathsword, your spine is all broken and mangled xD


Erica, you are the new CMD. It seems that everyone else is too busy resting and diying of thirst ¬¬

No, wait, i got this; "Failcannon's doing just fine in the hands of arcangelsd.  What's the worst that could possibly happen?"

You just had to say it didn't you.

Yup, you are included, remember, you took a solid blow to the head with a steel spear. Actually it would make sense for you to not remember it. It also help that I didn't say it before!
Deathsword capacity to move is destroyed.
Dariush's arm is broken, he was looking for the missing spearbold but it found him first.
Darvi got some damage to both of his legs.

And I think it's all for now. Everyone but Dariush and Deathsword are stabilized and productive now, so.. it's al fine here  in Failcannon. Could it get enven worse? I don't believe so.
