Hi there!
So... Long time reader, first time caller... all that.
First up, I'd like to say thanks. The forums are what drew me to this game initially, and convinced me to keep plodding along when the learning curve initially made me want to cut my extremities off. The result however, has been a lot of entertainment, and a great way of taking my mind off my life's ever increasing chaos.
I wanted to offer up my own fortress for ideas, because I've run out of stuff to do. Granted, I'm still kinda early on in the grand scheme of Fortress evolution (Yet to start the long and !!prosperous!! dig down) but it was my goal to create a self supporting fortress along with a couple other goodies along the way.
Since Pictures are 90% of the reason people visit this forum, here we go.
The Outside Keep! (Bottom floor, but it goes up 3 stories, and is capped off at the roof. To ensure no unwanted "Guests" have an easy entrance in)
The Barracks! (Branching off the main hallway)
The full layout. (Ground Floor)
The Plumbing.
To The Sub Basement!
The outline of the soon to be underground towers (About 15Z levels of housing with a penthouse for the Mayor and Duke, and about a 5Z level food storage/dining hall)
The top of the mountain... about 45 Z layers up.
The project for now... is to bring sunlight down to the center of the mountain. The name had "Dawn" in it, so I figured what better way to embody this, than to bring the sunlight down to my short little alcoholics. Admittedly... this is taking a long time. To the point where I already have all the necessary glass for the dome on top, processed and ready to go.
TO YOU, the forum, What else should I endeavor towards?
Thanks!
And continue striking the earth.
