Now, do the right thing.  No... Do the wrong thing.  The dwarven thing.  Continue.

You'd be surprised how often things that were intended as temporary become permanent.
my mom said something similar about me once

I'll post the embark info when I get home from work tonight since I abondoned that fort and can reclaim.

In other news I want back to a "saved" version of the game. (had an old copy I forgot about).
With Magma Pipes and Lakes around, my Plan is to make an Obsidian Press and Flash Petrify the Clowns  8)

I did this with an adventurer in like df2010 .13 or something.

it was pretty epic.  From fast traveling to my fort to death was about 4 RL hours.

While adding magma to anything will make it dwarfy, adding the word "magma" to your post does not necessarily make it funny.

Ok so I copied the folder, abandoned the fort, and started an adventurer...

After slaughtering my way across the world, killing monsters, Vampires, Beast... I Finally find my way back to the fort and:
HAZZAH!!! I find the treasures of the fort! I don myself in Candy Armor and weps, and... I find another surprise...

Much of my Fort's Dwarves seemed to have stayed around!
SO I just got to recruit some Warrior Dwarves who (I think) may Also be donned in Candy armor and weps!
I have about a dozen so far! My Own Dwarven army!Now I shall lay waste to the country side, BWA HA HA!

Use the fortress's access to the caverns below!  Why explore the surface!  Seek new hidden clown cars!

Well for those interested, here is the Fort location:


In case oyu can't tell it is basically in a valley in the center of the central mountain range right next to an existing fort.

I know using the wiki is cheating, or searching the forums, but you might have seen this about the clowns:

At the bottom of one, I accidentally bore into the Magma sea and it began to drain out into the Circus.
I didn't think much of it since I "THOUGHT" Clowns couldn't fly through Magma...

ring a bell?

sorry, probably should have quoted it immediately.
