We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

I'll take .34.11 thanks. I want to know I'll get to kill things for sure.

More or less everything's set up anyway; if you feel you'll have trouble, all you need to do is know which levers do what, and which squads are best suited to combat.

[tomio175]

Downloaded the save.

Now, I need a bit of help installing it. Should I just put it into the data/save?

[Splint]

Yup. Just drop the folder right in.

This is a leatherbound, charred journal. It is of mediocre quality.
Day 1
These Dwarves decided to make ME the overseer of the Fortress. After meeting up with Splint, Fischer and Reudh, my first act as an overseer will be to make sure we don't die horribly until there's a replacement. I'm becoming more and more familiar with the general fortress layout, but it's slow. Anyway, I'm going to hold a poll among the general Dwarven population (and our resident human, which we somwhow have...). Anyway, I've asked them what I should do. I'm waiting on the results. I cleared out the  Ballpoint Soldiers bad mercenaries' corpses. The stench was bad, let me tell you that.

[Reudh]

Here begins my journal as no longer being overseer. It was an interesting year...

1st Granite 209

209.
Wow. Already.

So, I called up Tomio to my office, and Splint and Fischer too. I thought Tomio would be the perfect counter to my rather haphazard management of the fort I had.

"Tomio, I choose you as the next overseer, because I feel you have all the qualities I lack, bravery being among them." I told him.

Fischer started to speak, but Splint interjected. "We feel that Reudh is correct in this case. You seem to be the best choice for the next overseer; and we feel we should tell you that Spearbreakers is a dangerous place. Can you handle it?"

Tomio nodded. "I will be able to handle it... after all, I have a few tricks up my sleeves."

What a strange dwarf. Ah well, that's the end of my reign, and the beginning of Tomio's. I now have to prepare to get ready to think about leaving to find Vanya, or at least having a vacation from Spearbreakers. Too much weird stuff has happened here.

[Talvieno]

Congrats on inheriting the save, Tomio. I'm sure you'll make us proud. And hopefully terrified.

And there's no need to spoiler your entries, now that you're overseer. In fact, it'd be helpful if you labeled them with something like:

Tomio's Journal/Personal Log/etc.

[Aseaheru]

i have no idea how to do that...

[Mitchewawa]

No wait, mitch was killed. Landed on his head. 

Re-dwarf me as the best mason. I at least want a climactic death next time

[Splint]

Hey it was a non-canon accident. Why the hell he was even down there is beyond me.

[Talvieno]

That was alternate-timeline-Mitch. The real Mitchewawa is fine.

[Splint]

I hate to advertise here, but I am currently working on a story fort and would love it if you guys dropped by. Except maybe Mr Frog, since I know how my writing style seems to drive him to the brink of madness when I forget dialogue tags. I figure since we have lulls in Overseer/Author activity it'd give us something else to do/talk about if we get bored.

Spearbreakers Overseer's Log.

Day one.
Hello Diary. I've been checking out the fortress here for about ten hours, and now I'm giving an order for something that is TYPICALLY Spearbreakers. People CAN'T hate me for this!
This is TOTALLY not a part of my secret evil plan.


Day Seven.

No-Hair gave birth to a baby, while shooting bolts at a Hollistic Spawn. Don't ask me why.

EDIT:

Day Ten.

Ehm... This is not good, I suppose?

[Splint]

Mad-Dok is safely in containment, happily screeching at everything with Ashaber and Softa now.

[Aseaheru]

well, THAT was a bit of a understatement. i bet they are ECSTATIC at being able to hide from the army...
