Dwarf me as Jacen, Archer Commander.

[Brewster]

20 Hematite 502
Due to lower food & alcohol we mined to the river and tunneled it to our hold while we wait on this siege. At least we'll have fresh water to drink.


25 Hematite 502

Since the outside is filled w/ undead, we went deeper!

22 Malachite 502

Our children are gifted!

24 Malachite 502

... I guess a vampire didn't like the artifact.

13 Galena 502

That's one ***ch of a mandate!

14 Galena 502

We start harvesting the underground plants and chopping the underground trees. Our food production is bleak.

3 Sandstone 502

Hopefully the start of a lasting food industry!

20 Timber 502
The Kobold Attack:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The kobolds attacked today... haha, good timing, dofuses!


At the start they did okay, and killed three undead.


Wow, mid-way through the battled they killed 8 more, while the horde continued to attack


As I feared the undead horde's stronger, 3 kobolds have died and the necromancer is joining the assult


Oddly enough the necro left but all the kobolds were killed but one, who ran away, but not before doing as all kobolds do. But the good news: Only 57 undead left!

24 Timber 502

They continued to swarm around the dead kobolds, eating their brains and innards.

28_Timber_502

Artifact, hope the vampire approves this time.

17 Opal 502

Got tired of fearing for our lives! We have given the militia weapons... wooden axes, but none the less, weapons! And also a special treat...



6 Obsidian 502

Captured some undead! time to smasshhhhh
It worked!
Smashed them down to 27 undead!
19!
2!
18 Obsidian 502
Finally I broke the siege... the land is cleared!!
Whew.... I'm need a rest from this leadership stuff.

[Brewster]

Sorry for the long delay everyone! Whew, but was it worth it. That was a crazy-ass year. Now it's ImBocaire's turn. I sent them a PM so hopefully they'll start soon. Whew!!

[GalenEvil]

That would have been so awesome to play through Awesome story!

[Corai]

Damn! My kobolds got caught up in a undead assault!


You got lucky.........

[Brewster]

For wearing loincloths and a spear they did really well! They gave me the courage to believe we could beat them.

[ImBocaire]

Shoot, I just got the PM today. I'll catch up and start playing/updating by Monday at the latest, if that's okay.

[Brewster]

Not a problem at all! Happy you're still aboard.

-From the Files of Imboker Athelroden-

By Etur, it's hard to concentrate on metalsmithing when the dead walk.

It's even harder to concentrate on metalsmithing when your next drink might never come.



But the thing that makes it hardest to focus on metalsmithing?

Being handed the keys to the goddamn kingdom.

I'm a simple guy, with simple tastes.



I'm not the kind of man who takes naturally to leadership. Gods, all I want to do is work my forge the way I've been doing for the past couple years, wait for my wife and child to finally make the trek here, and start a family here in Bloodymine.

(Come to think of it, I'm starting to understand why they haven't come here yet. Must attempt to put positive spin on fortress name.)

But hey, I'll take what's given to me. I've been given the opportunity not just to better my lot in life, but to make life a whole lot more bearable for the hundred dwarves who live here. An opportunity to give every dwarf opulent bedrooms and more booze than they can possibly drink, and they will drink it anyway. An opportunity for my name to go down in the history of the Lost Arch. This fortress is in  my possession, and they will follow my whims for an entire year.

Gods help those poor bastards.

(OOC: Just a quick introductory update for now. I'll need to get re-acquainted with this interface, since I haven't played in a while and this fortress is a tad bit confusing. More tonight!)

Edit: Whoops. Forgot to replace my image placeholders with actual images.

[Dalex]

Screw it, may not be the best at DF, but I'll take a turn for enjoyment's sake.

[Brewster]

Done! Thanks for joining up.

[exolyx]

I've always wanted to join in a succession game. Just a few problems with that though, First- how do I get a save for it? (future reference) How do I upload a save? and very importantly, how do I add a screenshot?
If someone could answer this for me that would be great, and I'd really love to try out this. Never done a succession before.

[Brewster]

1) How to get save? - generally there will be a link ready for you to download the save folder when it's your turn.
2) How to upload a save? - once you've downloaded it, you can unzip it into your Dwarf Fortress folder > data > save > and export it there.Then run game & should be able to play it.
3) How to add screenshots - Alt-PrintScreen, then paste into MS Paint. Then save. Then find a imagine file sharing website like http://imgur.com/. Then

Code: [Select]

Make sense?

[exolyx]

Ah, makes sense. By uploading a save though, I meant how do I put it up for others to get, sorry if I was unclear about that.
Just to be clear, a site like photobucket is fine, right? My computer has this odd problem with loading up some image sharing sites, but that one works.

[Brewster]

Ah, to upload your save after you are done, just use http://dffd.wimbli.com/index.php.
