Yes!

No!

I am small and neutral, like Switzerland

[Bobnova]

200 volcanos is a good start! We ran out in the first world if I remember correctly.

Looking forward to reading the turn!
There's a solid 6-7 hours before DS was thinking about being smashed enough, plenty of time for a turn and upload.
I do love me a day with two DDF turns!

[enisea]

Whoa! I love the look of it. Worse spending some time trying to upload the images. As saving. Just in case.


Bobnova, well, in Moscow it is night and today has already finished... If this sentence has any sense in it....

We have sturgeons and carps in the river!

[Naryar]

200 volcanoes

Fuck yes. I approve.

haunted embark

That however will cause fortress-stopping FUN in the second or third year...

anyways, I'm boozed up. If you finish up that year in 2-3 hours I will take a turn, but my booze stocks are dwindling already.

[enisea]

Yay, here go the images! 
Naryar, I'll do mu drunk-best
We have this aquifer problem...

There is a problm with that drifting dust:

Well, it turned out that the aquifer is not a problem, the dust is. I have just starting digging, everything outside yet.
With all this generating I feel really sleepy and hungry.  I suppose I will upload for someone else to continue.

[Bobnova]

Oh man, this could be a new record for shortest fortress, lol.
Also potentially a new record of three turns in one day!

In any event, I'm watching this thread like a hawk for updates
Good luck with the aquifer! I've never seen one right next to a volcano like that. Could make things Fun.

The sentence made perfect sense.

[Naryar]

How in Khorne's name do you get an aquifer that bloody close to a volcano ? When I had aquifers next to volcanoes it was at least 3-4 tiles away from the obsidian.

anyways, feel free to reveal the hell out of the map with dfhack to dig where is there no aquifer.

If there is an aquifer all over the map... Good luck. Especially while drunk.

[enisea]

Bobnova, sorry for stoppnig the updates, but I am really exhausted.

There are two stairs which go past the aquifer, aome farms aet up, a couple of stockpiles... And one dwarf and some animals in need of a doctor.

Here is the upload, hope everything except the dust is all right:

I'm taking up the save then. Let's see how long I last with my booze stocks... and if I can save the fort.

also 3 turns in one day ? By the Nine Hells, yes !

05:00 Opening up save. Let's see what happens.

ambient music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHfE682mm3c

05:03 Okay... let's try to save this. There are animals outside, and the wagon, visibly completely untouched by the evil cloud things. Let's see what I can do with this.

05:06 So the evil cloud causes rotting ? Heh. I understand why the animals are outside then. Oh well, no carp husks.

05:10 Well, there are 2-3 levels of aquifer, sand and yellow sand only. It's not a problem since volcanic rock surrounds the volcano (yes, really) quite generusly.

05:12 New ambient: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-gnjMemqdE
Not exactly fitting since i'm in a haunted biome. anyways, no undead in sight, just that rotting mist. It doesn't seem to kill, at least not at small doses.

05:16 I will build a bridge to close the fort asap. Maybe butcher the hungry grazers as well.

although considering the militia commander is a walking source of miasma as well... this may be fun.

05:19 Rotting clouds seem to have subsided. Let's try breaking that wagon and getting the shit it has inside without more rotting.

05:23 a cloud of creeping dust has drifted nearby!

Okay, wagon is deconstructed and most things are inside. Let's race that cloud.

05:25 Victory ! Everything is inside and the cloud has disappeared for somereason! Let's finished up that bridgee!

05:35 well, building beds. Fort is pretty laden with miasma with that rotting militia commander, even if dwarven moraleseems to hold.

I MUST DRINK MORE !

05:42 New musical theme : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLUvkKu2-pk

Good old PS:T. Building more beds. Rotting clouds doesn't seem to be lethal, although I'm quite sure it will cause a tantrum spiral somewhere...

Not a problem! I'm happy to see new people taking a crack at things
Thanks for kicking this fortress off!

Sand and magma!>? GLASS TIME!
Green glass ALL the things!

[Naryar]

Well, i did 1 month then went to sleep. Bah.

Uploading save.

Edit: http://rapidshare.com/share/0B5FFA8BEF7133C50F76D79A6AD1A50F

[DS]

Perfect timing. I'm read to go.

EDIT: Wow, I guess I really am. Hah.

[DS]

Save is taking a while to download, but it's far enough along I will probably be able to get something. Figners crossed?!

- 11:00:

AIGHT. Here we go. I usually expend some amount of effort correcting my speling as I go, but I' for the sake of the project, I'll abstain from using the backspace key. At this point, I'd say I've had a little more than two shots of vodka. My drink of choice, neat.

Booting up now.

Erm. The militia commander is rotten all the way through, yep. Miamsa clousds everywhere. This will be fun.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

"He was disgusted by miasma lately."

I suggest you get used ti ot, my friend.

- 11:06

Digging out a dining hall from orthoclase and marble. In celebration, I poured myself another two shots. Vodka of the Gods from TJ's. Mmm mm. How did we get so much steel? There's like a dozen weapons jsut lying around.

I think I've finally figured out where everything is, which indicates to me that I may not be as drunk as neceessary ujust yet.

-11:12

"The Stray Horse (Tame) has been missing for a week."

Look, bub, that was before I got here. Not. Responsible.

Dining hall excavated. Digging out a magma forge area now. Hopefully by the time the first migrants arrive, we can have a good glass industry going. Or something.

[Naryar]

There's that equilibrium between "drink moar, shorter turn, probably more fun" and "drink so you keep a good, long turn". But it depends of your alcohol resistance.

Let's see how this turn goes.

[DS]

Oh. Oh fuck.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

All but one of the dogs are dead, and the last one is sure to go soon too. It look slike the dust is fatal, causing terminal rot. Anything that comes into contact with it rots alive. Until they die. Of rot.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Oh! Migrants!

- 11:19

One of the miners just burst into flames while digging near the edge of the volcano. I dno't know how. Just... one moment, he was digging, the next moment, poof, !!miner!!

lukcily, he has the good decensy to stay in one spalce

- 11:35

Ok, good fortuen that our mason isn't dead. So our coffin industry is totallly up and running.

Thiungs are going great. At 5 dwarves. Hopefully anohter mogratn wave some coon.

- 11:50

A rampaging rotting camel was moving through the fort, so I mobilized one of the dwarves who had a skill with an axe to take care of it. Things ended poorly. 4 dwarves.

[Naryar]

Link the lever and the bridge...
