Or should I say, "funboat."

I embarked on a site with a chasm... upon arrival I discovered that the chasm was open to the surface. My wagon was parked RIGHT NEXT TO IT. I drafted my woodcutter, to whom I had gifted some combat skills just in case, and stationed him there while my other dwarves hauled ass and cargo to a safer location.

Then, just as I was digging an entryway, I was formally ambushed by three troglodytes... and a giant cave spider. My dwarves fought bravely but were quickly webbed and eviscerated.

FORTRESS FAIL

Reclaim for the win.

Also I thought most critters couldn't climb - so did you accidentally start inside the chasm or were they already on the surface when you showed up?

There are usually some that spawn at the top when the chasm is open to the surface.

Loosing is fun!..Never forget about it in DF.

Also, losing is fun as well.
