That's an oddly specific choice of country to go to.

It has a high HDI iirc, and low crime rate.

Why not Liechtenstein? Lowest unemployment in the world (1.9%).

Or Luxembourg, the nicest place on Earth to live.
Of course, what's limiting you to Earth? Pandora is nice this time of year, and you can see Neptune from it on a cloudless night.

Splint, was SB 2: Electric Boogaloo the fort with the guild things?

No, that's the Triumvirate one that's not up yet. As far as I know, SB II will have the following:

-Trainable weaker spawn as pets
-Different spawn castes that are 'spawned' per dwarf caste, with a 1% chance of the transformation causing a Megaspawn, a titan sized Spawn. (I'm not sure whether a Megaspawn warping would ever occur considering how few dwarves get bitten and survive.
-Possibly prototypes of Spawn of Fischer. These fight with Spawn of Holistic, and are more fragile speedsters than lightning bruisers..
-Scythods. Maybe foe, maybe friend. Possibly several different factions.

Will also have some fort defense races, exciting new and messy weapons like the railgun and serrated disc launcher, and best of all, I don't care what you guys think, no necromancers. I've had enough of them.

I'm assuming there will still be no vampires either.

I claim a starting dwarf if one is available. Preferably a soldier. If there are no more starting seven dwarves, just gimme a first-wave-er.

Also, I claim the starting mechanic/mason-esque person if possible. Preferably female, named Tempora.
