No new tantrum spiral brewing?

I think no, since our engravers filled whole stairwell with masterpiece engravings. But who knows...

I think dwarves don't admire engravings. They only cause happiness by raising room value.

Ouch. Ah, screw it. Next stairwell will be set with statues

19th Felsite, 107
Elven traders have arrived, showing their over-puny-reality nature. Really, who else would travel into those terrific place without any guard?
So, one of pack animal was attacked by undead harpies, another discovered goblin ambush, the third reached the depot. I have dual feeling about them - they'll leave a lot of goods after undeads and goblins defeat them, but it'll be a real pain in the ass to collect everything they scatter there...

So, elves are done with, one of goblin squad was scattered by undead muskoxen, another squad is still somewhere... ah, nevermind.

We're in the middle of mass-production of coffins, to bury all those bodies left from Double Beasts Attack and Zombie Aftermath.

[peregarrett]

Malachite, 107
We have another beast - this time it's blob of water. It doesn't look too dangerous, so let it crawl there...


But cave ogres ARE dangerous, and we got two of them. One killed Pitchblende with her steel pick, the other was cut by Asmel the axedwarf of her squad. But then the last ogre raised and provided us some trouble. Actually, it tore the arm of axedwarf and punched the others. Luckily it was finally taken down and dropped into magma while inanimate.

And we got another artifact


Fortress attracted no migrants this season. We're on our own.

But human traders made their way to us... And a few days later their diplomat arrived. Well, well, you are here for another secret?

Limestone 107
We're in the middle of another turn of zombie apocalypse.
First of all I was woken up with very unpleasant way


Seems like when we set a lot of coffins, the deads began raise on their way into crypts. Shit. From now on we should bury our deads into magma. It purifies all! And make memory slabs.

Now we're on guard at the main quarters, waiting for zombies to come to us. I hope we'll manage to kill them quickly and put them into their coffins or into magma, whichever is closer.
We had to draft most of citizens to fight the horde. Wish us luck.

18th Limestone
Things went terribly wrong. We left our quarters to undeads and barricaded at the soil levels. We're 42, 17 of those are children.
InsanityIncarnate is working non-stop treating his patiens. We went out of cloth for sutures, so we sheared the sheeps... and suddenly the woll atacked the shearer! what a crazy place we're living in....

But we're still alive. We have food, weapons, armor. We will survive!!!
So, named dwarves who remained alive are Peregarrette, InsanityIncarnate and ShadeNight. Pitchblende is alive, but insane. Things are quite dim, but not unsalvagible, I guess.

[Tirion]

If all is lost, rush to temple or adamantine vein and unleash the circus.

[peregarrett]

If all is lost, rush to temple or adamantine vein and unleash the circus.

It's not lost yet. But it's hard to tear the upright thing down, since zombies block the way to there.
Now - weapon traps to slash zombies into pieces at good zone. a shitload of weapon traps!

And slabs. Don't forget the slabs.
Or a big room full of coffins in the good zone.

[Tirion]

So... it this alive?

[peregarrett]

Yes, it is, sorry for delay.
Will play next chapter tonight or tomorrow, I think.
Also, are you for redorf?

[Tirion]

Yes, it is, sorry for delay.

Also, are you for redorf?

Yes, please. Pick any sane military dorf.

I SHALL DIRECT THIS PERSONALLY.
YOU CANNOT STOP US, SHEPARD ZOMBIES.

11th Sandstone, 107

We're trying to recover from the catastrophe. The most problem is the lack of cloth for sutures, but we're working on it.
We're small in numbers, but I hope we'll lose nobody in our atempt. The main idea is to kill those zombies with hammer traps - we have plenty of masterwork silver hammers and they work nice against undeads.

But not only the deeps threaten us, also surface does:

When moon set and sun raise, it transformed into a naked goblin... Looks like forces of evil are much weaker on the surface that in the deeps.
And speaking od deeps, there is another beast next to temple

Let it fight the zombies, I don't really object...

But what does it do? It... destroys the door to the Temple!


Well, after breaking the door to temple, it proceedes to Nix and BFEL's tombs. Why do beasts hate this monument of broken love?!

Well, and Thob the Recruit got fey mood.

Yes, it is, sorry for delay.
Will play next chapter tonight or tomorrow, I think.
Also, are you for redorf?

Yes, please. Pick any sane military dorf.

I SHALL DIRECT THIS PERSONALLY.
YOU CANNOT STOP US, SHEPARD ZOMBIES.

I guess I give you Thob after he finishes his artifact.

[peregarrett]

Thob claimed the craftshop and collects warious things. A lot of things.

So, the human traders were let out, and dwarven caravan came. So did the liaison.
The human diplomat also came in, I'm going to mett him with liaison, so the espionage would be his problem then.

While wagons were on their way, an ambush of little kobolds jumped out! Oh, they couldn't be more wrong. Caravan guards killed thim with no problems, then dead kobolds began to raise and guards killed them again.
And third time they got killed when arrived to our depot. This time was a final.

Looks like zombie swarm finally killed Zagith the Beast. Now we have undead forgotten beast among with undead dwarves. Oh.

[peregarrett]

Thob has created a spore tree ring. Oh.


And upon completion, he bestowed the nickname Tirion upon himself. That's a madness!!!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Other news - out negotiations with merchants has failed. Screw you, greedy bastartd!

Our trap is still in progress, but soon will be competed!


And, to add the top cherry on the cake - we're under goblin siege! Three squads and trolls. Don't really care.

[Deon]

This is a really great fort. Undead animation in latest df versions really added to the dark fantasy feel, I wish more forts used evil embarks. I look forward to the bright future of this fort.

P.S. I really loved that "zombie was animated in hospital, killed all patients" part. A true classic of zombie horrors.

Wool attacking a shearer made me chuckle.
