Through some bug I haven't been able to figure out or reproduce, we managed to convince DF that the water basin we build on the 4th or 5th floor of the tower had flow.  You don't even need the pumps running for the waterwheels to produce power up there.  I think someone along the way even disconnected them.  I really wish I could figure out how to exploit that.
And here I thought you'd done that by design.

I don't wat to be a killjoy but a half sinister map will be very challenging because of the undead and the lag they cause, also having mountain in the embark makes aboveground plants impossible to grow so we'll need to either dig some farms at the bottom (it'll be nice hauling those upstairs to the level 150 epic addy and diamond dining room) or use obsidian and mud to make some farms higher.
But i'll support this location, if it becomes unplayable we could try a skyscrapes 3 or something.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

I would like to take a turn, too. There is just the problem that all my aboveground projects gone horrible wrong at some point so I am not sure if I can add something good.
But even if i can`t take a turn i would like to be dwarfed. Make me a Mason or Smith of some kind. Depending on whats free/needed.

Can we make sure there is a supply of lava relatively close to the surface? I have some plans in mind. :D

I had an above ground garden built in the grounds of my castle and two young dwarves spent time socialising there over the summer and at the end of the summer they were in love. Remember those long summers of your childhood? That first kiss in the gardens while crossbows dwarves shoot goblins above your head? The rain of dead birds as the hunters get to work? Truly Spearhills is a paradise.
