Do abandoned fortresses continue to run on there own? I hope they do! I hope that toady adds this if it isn't already in.

They don't yet.  It's planned that eventually you can let them run on their own rather then abandoning but right now everyone becomes migrants.

I did once have a fortress get immediately settled by a new group as soon as I abandoned.  They didn't live in the fortress though, they built a typical Lamebox(TM) above what I think was the main entrance.

I had my fortress keep on running...

Everyone in the fortress joined a seperate group (From the "Rooms of attacking" to the "Hammers of Flight" or something like that)  But when my adventurer showed up, all the dwarves I had come to love and respect where still hangin' out.

And then I was eaten by a carp.

Sadly, I lost that save file...

I had a migrant group tromp off and reclaim a forest retreat that had been conquered by a demon.

A FOREST RETREAT.

It was a sad day for dwarf kind.

The trees brainwashed them, they should develop a need for sentinent flesh soon... better kill them now.
