Alright then. Autumn came and went pretty peacefuly. The lungfish continue to flop about on their obscene, stubby little fins, Rhesus macaques continue to fall into our cage traps. Except, we have a solution! I present to you....
SOULCANNON!Now, you look at that, and you think "Well Wrex, you handsome lupine bastard, whatever does it do?" Well, you pathetic little hangers on, it does this.
It's operation is simple. Take your
victems prisoners, who will be automatically routed to the weapon, and then designate them for Pitting. The pit zone covers the hatches, and can be accessed with the activity zone menu. Then, hit "Pit/Pond Information", and press enter next to the names of them. Gravity will take care of the rest. They will then explode into a thousand pieces.
The fortress defense initiative is paying off. We have thirty dwarves of out 72 dwarf population armed and ready. I reccomend another thirty crossbows produced, and every non miner and woodcutter drafted for their own protection. As that monkie showed off, it works wonders in pest control. The uniform also includeds a helm and leggings, in this case, made from mussel shells. Our miners struck a large vein of casseritite (You will know it when you see it), so I have begun bronze production forthwidth. Some dwarves shoul be excused form hauling duities to refine bronze quicker. We have nothing in the way of iron, so I reccomend we purchase anvils as soon as possible.
And Look at my tomb. So badass. Highmax, you jealous? It's also a statue garden, so that all dwarves can benefit from it's beneficence, and bask in the radiance of the pitchblende statue. It
's times like this, sipping oddly tangy rum from a pitchblende mug, when I step back and think about my life. I think I'll retire, pass on what I know and such.
ALSO LUNGFISH ARE IMMUNE TO SOULCANNON WARGARHBLLLLLLLLL.
While the fortress is running, it's far from efficent or organized. We have basic infrastructure set up, but there is a lot of wasted labour. The number 1 priority should be FPS, so build a DAS and make all the rotted clothing dumped. Not sure if gobbo's even exist, I haven't seen any, so we made need a clothing industry to be set up. Our military is strong, and when we add another squad, I propose they should be an axe squad, using bronze axes. Top priority, since we have limited metal supplies, is the chain mail shirt, the helm, and the leggings. We can use wooden shields. We could REALLY use a source of lignite or bituminous coal, so, if you find any, mine it out.
