Wait for the next release. I want usable mugs damn it!

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.

Pitchblende lever should be by where the siege machine shop was supposed to be. I put it there cause the area was high traffic.
I either go to sleep late or wake up absurdly early, so nocturnal might be a good description.

On an unrelated note, I'm considering making pitchblende a reaction component for my rail guns: And at long last, depleted uranium ammo will be a reality. And it will be absurdly lethal and the rail guns stupidly difficult to mass produce.

Also, the thread name shall be changed, AND I DEMAND MOAR MUGS

The lever at the top of the dining room is what controls the bridge!

But... Splint said... and... but... THIS PLACE MAKES NO SENSE.

Spoiler: DELTA LEVEL CLEARANCE REQUIRED FOR ACCESS (click to show/hide)

>CLEARANCE LEVEL: DELTA
>YOU HAVE BEEN CLEARED TO ACCEPT THIS TRANSMISSION

>SUBJECT: Experiment Operation HS-2-W1412

>MESSAGE BODY:

Talvieno's willing handing-over of the control of the fortress's operations to me was both unexpected and completely unprompted. Risking contamination of experiment data (and, really, *what* data? What useful purpose does this operation serve?) due to direct involvement is preferable to the potential suspicion that may have taken root had I refused her offer without any adequately-explained reason given.

I am fully aware of the fact that I personally oversaw the re-introduction of HS-2 to this iteration, thank you very much. In fact, I thought that it was a stupid idea then, too. We shouldn't go around stabbing dodos just because some mind-sick vapour-for-brains hooplehead in upmanage thought it'd be funny to see how quickly or slowly they'd die.

I'd really like to know just what in the hell *you* would have done in such a situation. They already had ordered the re-introduction of one of the most lethal entities yet to be documented into a world which had nearly destroyed itself just to get rid of them seemingly just for shits and giggles; I can't imagine what they would have done if some idiot had got it in their heads to try saying 'no'.

I can't deal with any of this at the moment. I need a fucking drink.

Incidentally, I need you to send me data on the local subterranean mosses in this region. I have a proposal for a new product.

He probably didnn't know where the bridge lever was either. Purple blends surprisingly well into clay.

Journal of Talvi Diamondknight, 19th Galena 202
Tessa's been missin for well-on nigh a week now, an I don't have no idea wher she could be! I've been lookin everwher for 'er, but she just ain't nowhere to be seen... I'm awful worried about her, and I'm gonna do somethin. I've had enough of my sweet lil cavies disappearin, I won't stand for none of this no more! Joseph sez I oughter make a picshur, so everbody would know who to look for, so I did - I had a nice dwarf make a drawing here of one of my engravings - he's a right nice dwarf, he is, and a darn good artist, too. Wish I could remember his name... but anyhow:

I imagine that's bout how she looks right now... poor lil Tessa. I'm hopeful someones'll find her and bring her safe back home... I'm postin tons o' these all over, so everybody knows she's missin. I figger about 3,000 of the engravings will be good enough to let 50 or so dwarves know she's missing... Hopefully they'll all see.

I miss my Tessa...

[Splint]

Aww come on man.... That's a dick move. Now I feel bad xD

[Mr Frog]

Why is it that I find shoggoths adorable yet am actually somewhat scarred by that thing? O__o

[Talvieno]

Nah, we know you think it's cute, Mr Frog, but don't worry, your secret's safe.

Lol, Splint. It was fun to draw, though. Mr Frog made Talvi draw something, I wanted to illustrate it. In a bit of an evil way...

Anyway, I knew where the original lever was (you made it out of pitchblende, lol), but I put one in the dining hall - makes more sense to have it around idle dwarves than up top where nobody idle can reach it. Plus, if enemies got in, they'd have to run right next to the open gate in order to close it - it would be pointless, and would never get closed. So I built a second one. I even wrote about it in one of my posts:

On another note, the bridge is up. I'm putting the lever for it at the northern end of the dining room - hopefully the next overseer won't neglect to read my journal. yes, I did just say that... I don't know how much more my poor nerves can take. I'm only a mechanic, after all...
...

Whoa, whoa whoa... Let's zoom in, here.

hopefully the next overseer won't neglect to read my journal.

[bombzero]

nice...

anyhow, about my turn coming up in a while. i decided that ill model my posts language and such after my char's personality. dont post a picture of the screen though, i want something to look forward to.

[The Master]

If my dwarf turns, then I'd like my replacement to be named Sirocco II in honor of the great and epic Sirocco.

Ah you're fine from what I can tell. I think Mr Frog let you out of quarentine.
So you've been mauled and stabbed and become psychoticly attached to a wooden pole.
You sir are batting a hundred.

[Ashsaber]

That pole of his has spawn resilient properties.

Perhaps so. And I demand mugs. OUR CURRENCY SHALL BE MUGS.

Well... I did find gold...

As did I. there was a tiny ass patch in the mess hall.

Well, awesome, I use my two patches, you use your one patch, and we'll see who becomes the richest dwarf in Spearbreakers.
