I will be making a sucsession fortress, I do not have the Embark site just yet but I will soon, and I will edit it.
So I need names for my new fortress. Normal names like tekkud and urist are too bland.
Does anyone have any ideas / challanges that arent too zany for my new fortress?

[dwarfhoplite]

I'm currently playing a fortress on 1x16 embark. It's alot of fun when you build everything on a single z level. I have an entrance at both ends. It takes like a week to get to the other side.

No constructions below ground. Any constructions must be built on the surface or in holes dug into the ground.

LordTriaxx must point and click within your fortress!

Or picking something like Egyptian, or norse names, depending on your fort location.

Im not signing up for the fort but what about no plants or seeds in the embark and name one dwarf zubb.

You should move this to Community and Succession games

CHALLENGE:
(*) 50% of ADULT population placed in the militia on constant training.
(*) Only export is cheese - bring your pigs!
(*) Embark in tundra.

Oh yeah: add my name to Master Brewer

Make a "human-like" civilization. Build above ground, preferably in a forest. Your mining must be done in a designated quarry, and you use underground areas for storage and mausoleums only. Forge's are above ground and use coal. Use as many foreign weapons as possible.

I would be in for a round of your succession.

Hey! If you embark on a tundra, the first seven should use Reindeer names...

The first one is a pretty good idea anyways. But pigs? The first thing I would do is slaughter them all.

Ftfy. I'd be ok with being an overseer, I think. Same with actually being a dwarf.

Here are a few ideas:

1) Convert 100% of your fortress to werebeasts. You'll need a reliable inoculation method and probably some sort of containment system for "that time of the month." Hopefully getting the first werebeast won't take too long.

2) Egalitarian fortress. All dwarves have all labors enabled. No workshop restrictions allowed. Nobles get no special treatment, and mandates are ignored (you don't have to avoid meeting them out of spite). Everyone gets the same quality of bedroom, and no one gets an office unless everyone else gets an equally good office, too. Everyone serves in the military for equal time, regardless of skill. Optional: Strange moods should not be allowed to succeed, and legendary dwarves must be killed for daring to make the common dwarf feel inferior.

3) The Buffalo Bill challenge. The goal is to complete a suit of dwarf leather clothing, ideally through fell moods (is there any other way?). Shoes, trousers, and a tunic or dress should be sufficient.

Name your mechanic after me, please!

Lol the names I call my Dwarfs are "Miner, Miner, Stonecrafter, Woodcut, Burner, Farmer, smelter etc etc lol." So much easier than wondering who is doing what job and why their on break, drink, eat or sleep lol.

But hey call them whatever you want

Twilightsparkle, founded by the Fellowship of Hooves. Your challenge is to build a horse ranch. Aboveground, underground, whatever -- you must keep the horses alive. For every horse that dies from any cause other than old age, three dwarves will be executed at random or because they've been annoying you.

[Bigheaded]

Set it so that you get as many dwarves as you can.

Each dwarf has to be renamed "Urist xxxxxxx"


A succession fort i was considering to start would be a "noob" fort, where the idea is to get as many noobs to add to the fort as possible, with an experienced player playing one or two seasons to make sure it isn't going under
The experienced player could then be mean and introduce hell on the fort, that would be amusing

Definition of a noob could simply be: "Not you used magma before" or even " Not found hell before?", as i would hope i wasn't the only one to not do either as of yet.
