Please tell me that's snowed-over Fetid Muck and the Nefarious Mist pools haven't been spread about...
Seeing as we've breached the aquifer, would you mind going to where the Trade Depot is and get any idle/disposable dwarves working on finishing this? All that really needs to be built is the gears and waterwheels on the upper level.
I could tell you that, but then I'd be a dirty liar. The Nefarious Mist is EVERYWHERE. I am never, ever, opening those doors.
As for the trade depot, you can see it in a back room of the fort if you look closely. Maybe I'll engineer one someplace seperate from the fort, but safe, for merchants to come die in, if I get some migrants that survive eventually so I can do the work.
Catalyst, your pictures aren't showing up here for some reason.
They are working for me as well.
Do you have googleusercontent.com blocked, that is where CatalystParadox uploaded them to.
Yeah, I use Picasa, because I'm lazy and havent bothered to sign up for and transfer to a better service since discovering it sort of sucks. Sorry if its causing anyone problems.
^Likewise.I say seal the fort up and try to survive by breeding. It may be slow going for a while, but if the local breeders are any good we could have a dozen or so little baby dwarves toddling around uselessly by the end of the year. Best-case scenario, we get an inbred drunken enclave of midgets on the edge of Hell on Earth. Worst-case is that we get zombies; not a whole lot of directions to go but up, though. Right?
Too bad our only potential breeder is married to a dead guy.
Do they ever re-mate? Because if so, we could theoretically have an Annoying Doomsayer and a Prophet of Cheese as the progenitors of the whole fortress.
