Aye, volcano river for me, too.  edit:  with some kinda neutral-savage strip of land, for butchery sake.

ROUND 1: STRIKE THE EARTH!




Finally, your strenuous travels have come to an end, for your group has reached Southpark, Colorado the foot of the fabled volcano... which for some reason doesn't look active at all. There are rumors of a river being close, but you haven't seen one, yet. The Axe of Grinding has bestowed the quest of building a glorious outpost upon your group of seven hairy hermits The Box of Dying. The air is clear and fresh, snow covers most of the area, yet there is no sign of any wildlife, only pines and larches scattered across the snowy plains. Icy peaks, glimmering in the distance, frame your new found homeland. Life is good. GLORY TO THE CROWN!



Your wagon, pulled by two sturdy llamas, has come to a halt.
The seven pioneers have gathered around, checking the supplies and counting heads.
Would be a pity to have lost someone on the way...

Spoiler: Dwarves (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Lifestock (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Supplies (click to show/hide)

Everything seems to be in order. Now it's time to decide on the new course of action and lay the foundations.

- Name your new found home (ideally volcano and region, too)
- Decide on an expedition leader
- Start with the !!FUN!!


I will continue with the next round once all the dwarves have something to do
Everyone is welcome to make a suggestion (like I said, the dorfs belong to everyone), bonus points for color coding

STRIKE THE EARTH!
I'll try to be nice for now

The Crown of sympathy - volcano
The Mire of smiting - Taiga
Andriofraust - Fortress

Expedition leader is obviously going to be the least likely to die - Lobram

First up, hunter scout in ambush mode.  Take no dog for first run.

Somebody chop wood.

Somebody grab stocks of wood and make some shit... andything, but a mason workshop ideally. And this 'maker' is to be our impromptu carpenter.

edit: {as an aside, are these dwarfs acting on dwarven instincts?  If this hunter sees a target, will it take it just because it is there?  or is there some discipline not enjoyed in the game?}

White glow? You're a genius, PA.

BRUTALLY tear down the wagon. Then BRUTALLY chop down about a dozen trees and BRUTALLY bring them to the arrival site.

No, the leader should be Donut. He's a smart fella and this is IMPORTANT.

Also, Gobo should scout in ambush alone. Maybe there's some nasty folks in the woods... Don't shoot any of these when they're some.

Also, wipe the ground near the wagon... Maybe we're standing on the frozen river.

Is donut a miner, or a smith? Anywho, he or the mason should start digging. If the forest is in fact evil we will want to wall off underground.
