[Mr Space Cat]

So far, Copperpools has half a mead hall, a slightly sheltered storage area, some unused farm plots (need to gather aboveground seeds), some nestboxes and two hives. It's the first summer, a squad of useless migrants are either gathering plants or being enlisted into the deforestation guild.

Everything is made from wood. I feel like an elf.

[Zivilin]

Wooden crossbows and wooden bolts will be entirely sufficient. Especially since wood-only operations will probably generate invader-inviting wealth more slowly.

Elves.....................

<cocks cedar crossbow> What about them?

...

Actually, what about them? They attack You for deforestation? I must have removed all trees from my fortress area dozens of times, and all I get are peaceful caravans.

Ironic because your elvish lifestyle will probably prompt a war between you and the elves.

I would post screenshots of mine, but it's kind of hard to capture anything meaningful when the fort spans several Z-levels (with very little on each one).

Dont feel bad, You just got your first kill!

Also you are a Proficient hammerdwarf and dodger!

Like a boss.

[Mr Space Cat]

Copperpools now has a mead hall and 20 dwarves crammed into said mead hall that only beds 8. Construction is slow since I'm letting 2 carpenters refining wood into blocks before building with it.

You do get 4 blocks from 1 log, right? Doesn't seem like it.

On the bright side, the deforestation guild has chopped down half the marsh.

[MrWillsauce]

Does anybody know how many migrant waves you get if you're isolated from the mountainhome? Also do the caravans keep coming?

[Canadark]

Any combat report that includes "The bronze war hammer has lodged" is worth reading.

[Cthulufaic]

Gonna try this, although I don't quite know how to export the screen image while in fortress mode.

well...so I'm done with year 1...killed a couple of kobolds, however got a HORRIBLE 2 migrant waves, both a couple that brought 4 children each

also should note i've lost 2 dwarfs to bad moods(one required a forge the other requires metal)

[MrWillsauce]

You guys and your "mead halls" and "dormitories". All my dwarves sleep in a cluster of beds outside beneath a ledge of wood, and they all eat and drink a few meters away from the beds. I bought a few metal bars from the dwarven caravan with some bolts, but I offended them and they left early.

[Hunger]

I just got a artifact named swordproblem
Really?

I would have thought that artifacts were impossible with this challenge. I thought you had to mine a certain number of tiles in order to get artifacts.

No, its a population limit.
