PSST! Its mostly that I just suck at Pump Stacks of any kind, and whenever I try to make them, people die.
Good thing I'm next. (Kudos to all of you in the queue for your acceptance by silence. 8))

I for one, cant wait :D

Nope, DF-Catapults fly straight and then down.

It actually is - Catapults werent always angled up. For the distances present in DF, it actually makes more sense :P

If anything, the Rocks should fly more randomly.

This is correct - most catapults (such as the Onager) would fire things forward, into a falling arc. Only the advent of advanced mathematics (ie. greek/roman empire) has eventually resulted in parabolic arcs.

This is a quickie.



Sup.

Nice little Magma Forge area I just found - Im reappropriating its usage now.

What a Welcoming Entrance.


The FPS is torture.
Its fucking with My head already.



Im currently working on several Projects. I have no intention of showing them to You until it becomes necessary of course. At least the rest of the first Month hasnt had much happening so far.

Felcis is just sitting in the Catapult.
Staring.
At the wall.



I saved the Soldier Id doomed to die for killing MarkAFK.
Sorry Recruit!

Ok Cognitive Dissonance - For now, Im not gonna go into detail, but Your life is in the hands of Time, and the Clock is Ticking.
Your chances of survival are 40/60 :)
I assure You, this is all in the name of magnificent progress.
Youll see!

Oh, also...




There is a Mace Lord on the surface, who has been in and out of Martial Trances fighting two Zombies all month. The same two.


Were still in the first Month of My Turn, You know.
**THE FIRST MONTH**
It hasnt even been one Month yet.



The FPS.
By Armok.
Vodrilus, when You get in here, please BURN THE SURFACE.
Just BURN.
IT.
ALL.
We will survive, here in Markedangels, because the Zombies will burn.
The Elves will burn.
They will all meet Their fate, and We will survive.



Zero Idlers.
Lots of work on the Projects.
This can only end well.

Tis now the 1st of Slate.
I need a break.
Lots of time was spent designating, and getting stuff produced to go into the new Projects.

Shh.

Thats not the point, anyway.
The point is to boil the Ocean.
The point is to destroy the remnants.
The point is to show that at the pull of a Lever...
We are supreme.
This, My Friends, Is Markedangels.

The FPS.
These words strike fear in my heart. Can you imagine that I even considered plaing on my wife's puter, instead?  :o (But just for a moment.)

Ill just scare You a bit now then.
Im on a high class Computer that can run just about anything at its highest settings. For one example, I can run ARMA 2 on its maximum view distance. Anyone whos played it will understand.

Let's see if I fare any better than Felcis with his/her/its measly 3-7FPS... At least I'll be able to react to everything with "lightning reflexes", even if that means watching the fort get slaughtered in slo-mo. Which would also be cool. (In which case I promise numerous screenshots...)
