POOR FORTRESS! Those mean old fort-catchers with whips and cages! I'm no candidate, I only get 45 fps out of a 7 dwarf fort.

How big is the map?

As you journey to the center of the world, feel free to read the death announcements of those dwarves that suffer your neglect.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the cosmos. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips, I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my veins. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.

Standard size, but with 161 dwarves running around, magma, and multiple waterfalls, it's a biiiit laggy.

Sorry, wish I could help.

My FPS probably wouldn't be much better...on top of that I would mod the poor thing so much it would be something worthy of a horror movie.

Maybe the wiki needs a section for orphaned fortresses.

Probably not. It's doing too good. The only thing I can see going bad is the < 200 units of booze.
Anyway, I'll upload the save. I would take a screenshot of the 3d form, but it would look TERRIBLE in winter. When spring hits it'll be lovely.
I've uploaded the reigon from the save folders. That's what I'm supposed to do, right? http://rapidshare.com/files/80432540/Reigon_6_-_Delristibar.zip.html

What, you're telling me you don't want to see your fortress destroyed by a host of DFers flooding the world with magma and unleashing demons??

Not really, but what I meant was that it provides no real challenge to defend.
