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

Coulda said so sooner. Such a shame.... Ah well. Guess it means no needing to redorf someone right now at least. Hope things aren't too serious or anything.

[Hanslanda]

I'm sorry all, some stuff has come up and I can't finish my turn. I apologize, and fully support the time limit idea

Its all good, friend. We just couldn't wait any longer, to save the topic. I hope your stuff gets worked out and you can get a turn later in the fort.

[Splint]

On time killing note, Hans you still insisted on shield bashing instead of killing the yearly junk caravan with that cedar shield. Also, bluemetal for humies! Yay! Timewar on hold. This is a first for me as humans.

[Hanslanda]

Yeah, I felt they didn't deserve death by the blade.

[Splint]

I won't lie man, I think it's because of the weapon only being well forged compared to the shield being a masterwork middle finger to elfdom.

[Hanslanda]

Yes.

This is a masterwork cedar shield. On this shield is an image of a human in oak. On this shield is an image of elves in alder. The human is striking a menacing pose. The elves are curled in the fetal position. This image relates to the slaying of the elves of the forest by the human Hanslanda in the Attack of Failures. On this shield is an image of a middle finger in featherwood. The middle finger relates to the insulting of the elven diplomat in Human Fortress by the human Hanslanda.

When Mr Frog becomes a legendary smith, you get an adamantine sword. An exploration shaft found this. I feel the need to share far and wide, since it was literally an island not attached to anything.  And YOU WILL use that sword.

If not, I'll risk making Girlinhat berzerk and incinerate that fucking shield and give you a cheap copper one.



Also, lol at the description.

That is awesome. And I think Hanslanda!Dorf should be willing to use such a beautiful weapon. Don't kill my shield, its too sexy to die this young!

[Splint]

You've had it for two years.... Anyone want a picture of the settlement? Or at least the fortress itself and not the living space?

[Hanslanda]

Lol, I would love a picture. Or the save. Or whatever.

[Splint]

I'll PM you the pictures. And when I fight off a modbold siege, I'll send you a copy of the save.

[swordsmith04]

Can I be dorfed again, please? (Yes, I'm still following the thread. Kinda. I'll admit to not having looked through for a week or two. Wasn't that a mistake. >.>)

Nice stories, by the way, guys. Definitely worth reading through all the pages I missed. You're, uh, kind of straying from the actual fort a bit there. >.>

[Hanslanda]

We're realigning the rails. Soon PBT will post an update and everything shall be SNAFU again.

[Splint]

We needed to kill time somehow. And for you information my Timewar story is based upon the fort, though long after it fell.

This, and we want the topic to be as much of a bloated monstrosity as the fortress is.

On a related note, its...
STORY TIME WITH HANS!!

Hans blithely carried the dead dwarf's corpse into the hospital where Mr Frog and Urist had been taken. He hadn't known what to do with it, and quite frankly had forgot he was carrying it until he entered the hospital. He suddenly realized he had the corpse, and frantically looked around for somewhere to put it before someone noticed. He had a flash of brilliance, and arranged the corpse on one of the medical tables. A doctor turned at the moment he finished, and saw the dead dwarf. "Hmm, another one today? That's another one for the clover."
Hans shrugged and wandered over to Mr Frog. Frog was sitting up in bed, quietly telling the doctor what to give him for the pain. The doctor nodded and strode toward the medicine cabinet as Hans reached the bed. Mr Frog gave Hans a wary look, "Yes?"
Hans shrugged, "I dunno. I got done with work just when this happened, so I've got a few hours to kill and I didn't know what else to do." He fiddled with one of the surgical instruments nervously, til he cut his finger. He stuck the bleeding finger in his mouth promptly.
Mr Frog's face briefly twisted into a grimace of disgust, then settled into a neutral expression. "Right. Why don't you go get Splint for me? I need to discuss some important matters with him."
A look of wonder spread across Hans' face as he considered the idea, and he took his finger out of his mouth to speak, "That's a great idea, sir! I was s'posed to talk to Splint any which ways when I finished that corridor. Deadly thing that is." Hans turned to leave, but Mr Frog grabbed him by the wrist. Hans turned, a slight frown on his face, "Sir, you're the boss and all, but don't you be touchin' me unannounced like that. I don't like it."
Mr Frog ignored him, "Corridor? Is it dangerous, like it could cave in at any time?"
"Well, yes. He's havin' me link a few collapsible supports to a lever later. It all sounds incredibly dangerous. I'm sure a proper architect would have a terrible fit over the whole thing. One kick could bring the roof down." Hans was shaking his head ruefully.
Mr Frog nodded blankly, lost in thought and said, "Very good. Bring me the blueprints when you get done with Splint. Or actually, have Splint bring me the 'prints."
Hans nodded dutifully, "Right sir. Right away." Hans turned and left the hospital, thinking idly about his poor cut finger.
