So when you embark, is the layer your on start the only layer you have for that map? I guess I embarked on a metamorphic layer, which apparently means I have no iron ore. So can you dig to a new layer? And would you be digging vertically or horizontally for a new layer?

This is only my second fortress, and my first one i was graced with a ton of chalk and iron.

Yes, there are other rock layers the further down you go. Or if you have another biome in your embark their might be some other rock layers under it. Iron ore can be found in sediment and igneous extrusive volcanic rock layers, and of course goblinite.

Cool, thanks.

I figured that going down would find a new layer, since it's called a layer, but like I said, I'm new and heard that the z levels go down pretty far.
