Meph tried to upgrade danger rooms to kill people who used them . Making a wooden spear sharp, however, won;t increase it's ability to hurt anything through any sort of armor.

[GreatWyrmGold]

According to the dwarf therapist screen that I posted at the end of my update, you are. Now, we're waiting for Mebuy!

Ah ain't no elv!

Spoiler: Tranzlaytud: (click to show/hide)

I missed that, partly because I don't use DT.

[Shingy]

Yep, danger rooms are sometimes deadly. Especially when a baby is born during the training or when a soldier sleeps in it and gets a major artery open.

[Wrex]

As Mebuy has not shown up, Nimtike will be able to go next. If mebuy does show up sometime later, he can go after him.

[Nimtike]

Oh!  Well I will get started right away.  Are you guys ready for some massive !!fun!! ?
Because mr. McNewb is getting his first swing at a good ol' fashioned succession fort!

[Meph]

Excuse the interruption, but shouldn Taintbroil, Orchish Fort! be written Taintbroil, Orcish Fort! ?

[Wrex]

Well, you have a blinded dwarven siege with nonfunctional limbs, and a useless military. It's funny that my own save I continued playing didn;t get a seiege for seven years, and had a dragon pillbox before a siege came .

Although yes, you are probably right meph.

Xequarg's Journal

As one of the few Taiga Orcs who have any semblance of intelligence (many have claimed me to be
half elf.  HA! I laugh at them, though I am part goblin...) I gladly accepted the role to overseer
the TaintBroiled Encampment.

Upon my arrival, I was greeted with none other than the sight of some of the little folk I that
I love.  Now by love, I mean it like I love steak.  Their tough meat is delicious with a side of
honey and some plump helmet bisquits.  Mmmmmmm.

Anyway, sneaking past them was a breeze and upon getting inside I immediatly start getting everyone
together into groups.  All Snagas are now called thus, all smiths caste as such, and so forth.  Some
people would rather me remember their actual names, but why should I care about such inferior beasts.
My intelligence is better spent on more important matters.  I will note that some of their names
I thought were humorous and remembered because of that.

((All non-named orcs of a certain casts are named such.  Anyone with a name has a letter next to their
name.  S for snaga, R for ronin, U for Uruk, and C for crafter/smith))

Now to business.  I see that almost nobody has any jobs assigned and they are just lazying around
doing nothing waiting for the siege to end.  Typical. They have no idea what to do and therefore
they do nothing.  I whack the miners into action and the smiths as well.  I will have that dwarven
meat outside if it is the last thing I do.

Talking about things to do, while looking around the stockpiles I realized that we had an insorbidant
amount of gold.  Me being the connoisseur that I am, I decided to get one of the orcs minting me
some gold coins right away.  Turns out this trip won't be as bad as I thought.

But back to the task at hand...

((I haven't even unpaused the game yet, I'm so absolutely terrified that I'm going to die.  And before you ask my why I'm minting coins it is because I am in character, so shut up.))

[Wrex]

Arrows. Bow shots rip through even slademantine plate like butter. I reccomend bow and gun squads as the primary defensive. just make sure they don't charge.

[Nimtike]

I would really like to applaud whatever buffoon gave Mebuy any say in Orc matters.  And once
I was done applauding, I then would order them to 100 lashes before the assembly.

You see, Mebuy had let out a mandate some time ago that I was not aware of.  Something about grates,
I don't know? Back to the point, it seems our fearless warchief, Kromnash, has done wrong in his eyes because of
not completing the task and has been sentenced to two and a half months in jail. 

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The only reason I don't have the warchief strike him down and get on with my life is that Mebuy seems
to be the only trader in this whole... hole in the ground.  Hopefully with what I plan to do I won't need
the warchief.  But if things were to go awry, why then he would be in trouble.

OOC

I am going to bed for the night, and tomorrow I am DMing for a Dnd campaign.  I will be back on tomorrow night for more Orc Fortress. 

Oh, and btw, my fps is freaking slow so it may take me a couple days to finish my turn.  I do plan to do a lot in that time however so I will try to keep it interesting.

edit: Grammar

[Wrex]

Kromnash is pretty badass, and at that point the only competent soldier we have . Those chains kill almost anything.

EDIT: Also, watch the syndrome arrows. the heat causes them to boil the second they stop moving. Generally in the chest of some unfortunate idiot.

[Shingy]

I'm happy to see that these dwarves didn't kill us all yet.
Also, the bedrooms are nearly completed, we just need cabinets and chests. We didn't breach into the cavern, so if you want to have more FUN, go on (there are troglodytes and an FB corpse down there).
Anyway, you're  doing great!

[smakemupagus]

Arrows. Bow shots rip through even slademantine plate like butter. I reccomend bow and gun squads as the primary defensive. just make sure they don't charge.

But make sure you have a backup plan for when they bring a couple squads of Golems

[OREOSOME]
