Well, that was an eventful year!

We survived:

5 ambushes (4 within the first week of my overseership);
1 siege (destroyed with only 3 days left to Obsidian).

We lost:

9 Dwarfs, 2 of them babies (all from that first wave of ambushers)

We gained:

A metric shit-ton of goblinite;
Gold a-plenty;
A good deal of livestock;
The honour of being raised to a Barony (congrats to the baron, AquiziTC!).

We built:

A functional, central guard tower/xbow training space;
A working hospital and well system;
A slightly more efficient foundry stockpile system;
A deep, deep drop-pit;
Effective ramparts atop the walls;
A prison;
2 artifacts (a millstone [hooray!] and some pants [bleh]);
Some peek-a-boo fortifications to see the caverns better.

We found:

Lots of sphalerite, malachite, native gold;
The SMR levels;
Sadly, no candy yet, nor the magma sea.

We've also updated our squads to effectively train, as well as setting up burrows and alerts to pretty much automate defense.

Notes:

# of times the West bridge was raised: 0
# of cage traps laid out: 0
# of dwarfs lost after the initial wave of ambushes: 0
# of trade deals gone wrong: 0
# of uncontrolled floods: 0
# of tantrums: 0
# of kidnapped kids: 1
# of stolen items: 0
# of squads (total): 3: 2 Xbow, 1 melee (in full steel armor)
# of security holes: 1 (waiting for a mason to build a wall)

All in all, a pretty easy turn.  Thanks, Grevenis, for leaving the fort in such a manageable condition!

My apologies for not doing a full pictorial walkabout, but my internet connection is slower than February molasses atm and I just don't have the patience.

I'm seeing a lack of posts from Zechariah.  Do we move on?

Has anyone tried the PM route?

There was no specific timeline given in the OP, so I suggest we set (x) number of days to respond/post, as a fair warning, before just skipping.

This is, after all, a very busy time of year for many - what with exams, shopping, family visits, etc.

But the final call is of course on AquiziTC.

Interesting thread - I'll throw my hat into the dorf ring, and perhaps overseer but let me ponder that over this mug of wine...

I don't think Dark Artemis Fowl gets on anymore.

Said elfking is named Ducin... something I forgot. He has FIFTY-FIVE THOUSAND KILLS to his name. Most of them dwarves and elves in the nation capital.

I always wondered what would happen in Cacame turned to the dark side. Now we know.
