feel free to post fort ideas here.

As long as I get a little room to build The Bridge of Khazad-Dûm I will be happy.

Our starting items. Delicious lobsters. 2cat LOL!!!!

Ageages the Ageless Ageless Ages of Aging will never die!

Strike the earth etc

Fuck it's cold. Here's our starting position.

Let's check what kind of critters are o- FUCK A DRAGON

Well then, at least he's pretty far away right?

Strike the earth!

First bit of digging to do, stockpile and such.

The snow suddenly melted, that's nice at least we'll have access to water.

Oh jesus. In case you can't see, the dragon is on the left side of the screen, so hopefully we can make sure he doesn't see us and burn everyone.

Wait, who are these new guys? Only two migrants?

8 new migrants to sit around be useless. Great.

So my IrfanView decided to not take any screenshots when I opened it today. Basically, was ready to make an underground farm it was autumn. Minding my own business when the dragon decided to mosie on over to say hello and kill all the dorfs. So I'd assume Rale should start a new one since I currently don't have the time to really start one again. Also this helps a lot if your FPS is shit: http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=51957.0

Here*s the save file, reclaim Omerled.

I will start this time, and make the map smaller.

Lorris Holyales, settler extraordinaire, sets of on a great quest from his hometown of Ablel Nicat, a lonely city state.
He has been set the task of revitalising the empire.

His travels took him across the mountains, it was a boring walk.

He followed a river all the way to Clobbergilds, a human town.

He heard of a cave to the north, it was in the Blizzards of Trailing.

He arrived in the dead of night, to his supprise he found some tasty treats just lying on the floor.

The cave was infested with large rats!

Oh dear

oh dear, oh dear.

He made a clever move and ran away with only minor injuries.

He ran all the way across the world to another cave.

This is that last we heard of poor Lorris, and the moral of the story is not to go near caves.

Now lorris's son (also called lorris) has been commissioned with the same task, He has gathered a band of dwarfs to help him.
Will the same fate befall him and his comrades?

DUN DUN DUNN...TENTION

The good old beard of beards strikes the earth.

The plans for the grand halls and bridge of beards are now up.

Migrants have arrived, I have been too busy making a huge hall to make bedrooms :C

This is how all my forts fail...

More beds must be set up in the halls.

19th of Galena and the great hall has been completed.

The first z-level at least, 3 more to go...

8th of Sandstone and everything is inside the great hall, stone has been cleared because I dislike the colour. no one has a bedroom yet.

Only two migrants come to see my grand halls, the philistines.

Bedrooms are now up and so is the brand new throne room, council rooms and hall of heros. These will house future leaders, nobles and past leaders and dead leaders respectively.

FUCK OFF LIMONITE, I DON'T LIKE YELLOW, ROCKS ARE NOT YELLOW.

So, traders came and I had nothing to offer them, I ordered in some wood to make beds ect.

We need some industry.

Like food, OH WAIT, I FORGOT FOOD.

So I started building towards some soil and I noticed my throne room isn't symetrical with the great hall, this is going to annoy me, lots.

(pic: tunnel to the soil)

Winter in upon me, I need to start building up a legacy.

I'm going to retire as a broker methinks.

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, winter is almost over and I still have no house :C.

Oh dear

This is my plan to save the fort.

build an underground farm-fort.

So spring has arrived and my fort has ended up like the rest of them, I put off building farms and houses in favour of massive public works.

I retire now into my unfinnished house, maybe th next leader will save everyone from starvation and tantrums.

And if anyone is wondering what the huge ammounts downward stairways my the main door is then I will guide you to the image on the left, I hope to make a huge chasm to lava so when we fire arrows at intruders they will eather hit or dodge off the edge.
