Cudgelfang, the Lazy Person's Succession Fort- sign up!
« on: September 30, 2012, 11:08:24 am »

Here's the problem with succession games- doing the writeup is a complete bitch. The problem is, I really like playing fortresses for a small amount of time- after about two and a half years in normal forts I often get burned out.

That's why I've designed this succession game. As with all succession games, there is a sign-up list, but you get to make the rules. Only do as much of a write-up as you want; only post as many pictures as you want; only play for as long as you feel comfortable before zipping up the save file and posting it on DFFD.

The only rule, of course, is don't run it into the ground and try to keep the place going. You can do a write-up if the fort death was sufficiently epic, but it's fine if you don't. Because of the nature of the succession, if a fortress falls, we'll just have the next guy have a go at the previous save.

Some background to the fortress.

We are in a heavily forested conifer forest. We have a brook. The climate is temperate. We have dwarves, elves, humans and goblins as neighbors. We are not in range of a necromancer tower. The embark finder tells us we have flux.

Our civ did not have any anvils, but we'll survive. I brought two miners, a woodcutter/carpenter, a stonecrafter/cook, a grower/herbalist/brewer, a doctor/bookkeeper/broker, and a furnace operator/weaponsmith.

Let's strike the earth!

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

I'll sign up for a turn. Also, what is the time limit in rl and I'm assuming the save is unmodded 34.11 right?
