An update per day is pretty good for succession games, really. Especially when the FPS starts to drop.

Melkor’s log 16th felsite
Hey guys look elves how nice of them to visit us.
 .. uhm guys look elves... why is everybody looking at me like that.

So it seems these guys hate elves, how was i supposed to know.


Melkor’s log 26th felsite
We successfully traded with the elves, we gave them some crafts and in return we got rope reed cloth and some wood.
Also the dining hall finally has some tables and chairs.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It’s not much but it will have to do.

Melkor’s log 7th hematite
Apparently the dwarf diplomat from last year is still here so i have asked BFEL to go talk to him.
I don’t really know what we need so i just asked for steel bars and cats, i love cats.
After the meeting BFEL gives me a small piece of paper.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I guess we need to make more crafts.

Melkor’s log 18th hematite
More migrants have arrived, 9 of them getting our total up to 39

Melkor’s log 16th galena
A human caravan has arrived i am excited to see what they got.
The human caravan had some booze and some leather but not much else.

Melkor’s log 26th galena
The dining hall is almost done. We can use it but it’s not engraved yet but, NAV is working hard to fix that.   
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
He has some artwork but not sure if i approve of.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

In other news i have found a place for the dogs.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Here they can stay and they won’t be harmed, also i have a small training room for our militia.

Our stockpile is done as well.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It’s a bit of a mess and i kind of forgot what’s where but it’s here and it should be enough for a while.

Also a bedroom.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It’s not done yet but we will get there.

Melkor’s log 20th sandstone

Ooh well more peasants.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Hah. Very amusingly. How the hell did we even get THAT many dogs? Can't wait for the last(?) update. This will be very amusing.

I'd like to join! I'm new to DF, I almost can do everything from the quickstart guide. I've wanted to experiment a succession game since I read Boatmurdered. I'm currently reading Gemclod.

Welp, I'll check the forums constantly!

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I find imgur the best photo-uploading service that I've found. You should use it.

well you know when you use something you know how it works, and when something new pops up you tend to use the old one even if the new one is better.
but yeah i think i give imgur a try

HAHA well if you start training the dogs for war you could probably repel a siege with the canine attack squad, thats why I brought so many dogs along, so that the soldiers would have some teeth to back them up. Also since you dwarfed yourself as a noble anyone who bet "Something completely useless" wins an interweb cookie XD
On a different note, we seem to get a disproportionately high amount of dwarfs with high healing rate, these will be excellent soldiers once trained as healing rate is untrainable, while other military stats are trainable with pump operation, danger rooms, sparring, and simply throwing them at the enemy. If we get a real squad together with some shields then Captain Mountainhomes will start training them and we can be well on our way to having a ridiculously overpowered military.

7/10 Has much more memorable sigs but casts them to the realm of sigtexts.

Indeed, I do this.

Melkor’s log 7th moonstone
The dwarven caravan has arrived, i was a bit disappointed, i asked for lots of steel bars but they only had 4.
I also took some leather and our captain now has a steel shield with some bat tooth on it (not sure what’s up with that).

Melkor’s log 6th opal
Well this fort is going great. We have a almost engraved dining hall, bedrooms for almost everybody, enough food, a big stockpile,
A workshop area and our skink is back..... wait what

Militia get your ass to the gate! I didn’t gave you those wooden swords for nothing and... why are you looking at me like that?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

OOH COME ON.


Really these skinks are driving me crazy if you are going to come to our fort at least have the decency to stay a scary skink instead of transforming and running back.

Melkor’s log 12th opal
In the resend event i was elected as mayor..... i though i already was the leader here but it seems they wanted me to have a higher title.
Thats fine by me and as my first act of wisdom i am prohibiting the export of bracelets and to make sure it will be imposed.
i am promoting my wife (yes it seems i am married and have kids) To sheriff and hammerer, she of course will receive her own room.
