I am pretty sure not every combination is possible. I never had rock or gemstone or glass weapons or bone or bone anvils.

Well, we're waiting on the anvil in the hopes of solving a very important question.

That's easy for me - clearly, the first anvil was bought on embark or acquired from human caravan.

1. No.
2. If that was even a possibility, where did that one come from? Square one.

What do you mean, 'where'? From embark of course.

Don't argue with circular logic

But then, say, where did wood come from? you need wood or metal for axes. for metal you need charcoal. for charcoal you need wood. So for wood you need wood...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

What did I tell you about circular logic?
Bring it from embark

Trees can be explained.
Embark, no. Anything gained from embark has to be available from the mountainhomes, otherwise it won't be available.

...Except for steel anvils.

YOU'RE ONTO SOMETHING HERE.

QUICK, SOMEONE MAKE MORE CIRCLES

Where did the First pick come from? couldn't dig to the magma sea and make metal axes without picks.

VIVA LA QUOTE PYRAMID!

A pick could have come from a bonecrafting strange mood.

So:
1) Naked prehistoric dwarf embarks on a volcano and gets a *wolf bone pick* from a mood
2)
3) Magma forges make anvils for everyone!

1. Ancient kobols steals ancient bone pick.

2.

3.Ancient kobolds make the first caverns with bone pick.



PROBLEM?

Yes. It stiil leaves the question of the first anvil.

Yes. Kobolds could never do such a sophesticated thing. As they are small, weak and unintelligent.
The first pick/anvil was made by dwarves that dipped ore lying around in a nearby volcano and then fucked around with it, as dwarves do, over the course of many years.

No it wasn't. It was created by their survivors.

Not gotten on embark, but on reclaim!

Dwarven Forum-Pyramid.  New kind of mega-construction???

Most definitely

A new megaproject is all well and fine, but how are we going to weaponize it? Further, we need to make sure we can collapse the thing at will. Or in a way which any number of things can trigger.

A big problem, yes

[scriver]

Quote pyramids are frowned upon because they make the forums sad. Don't do it.

[Garath]

sorry, I thought I had the whole thing in a spoiler, gonna go back now and see if I can fix it

edit:
ah, too big for spoilers

[darkrider2]

Man I haven't seen one of those in forever.

[ivanthe8th]

I feel proud to have been a part of this monstrosity. Also, I think this would count as my first successful derail of a thread. 

[krenshala]

My guess, the first anvil was found by someone that embarked on an abandoned lair.  That or a mood making a stone anvil.

It can't just be "they used stone as an anvil" because if they could do it, so could we our dwarves.

[Loud Whispers]

This pyramid is bad and you should feel Egyptian.

no YOU should feel egyptian.

Is it bad that I have seen worse quote pyramids than this? I mean, I think one of them extended into space but I'm not sure, I couldn't see the top.

I'm pretty certain it got turned into a tower at one point.
