Alright, I'll start on this bad boy tomorrow. It's gonna be odd not having farming

Oh, did you mod out the planting profession so that we won't get an useless planters?

EDIT: Nevermind, I can start right now. Dl'ing the save.

[o_O[WTFace]]

I took the super lazy way and modded out seeds.  The upside is it works, the downside is the occasional blank entry and "frozen unknown plant material gloves".  All our experienced herbalists are dead so you should probly assign one or two new full time ones and have them work on about an embarks worth of plants.  It does work fairly well though, plus caravans come every season and bring mountains of stuff.

Alright, I couldn't play today thanks to marching band. So far not much has happened, fortress is starving but no one's died yet. I'm kinda worried about a tantrum spiral, but some high-quality furniture should offset that. Expect a more full update tomorrow.

[Imp]

Can I be dorfed as one of the new herbalists, whenever that's available?  Name the beard Imp if you would.

Preferably a single female, married is fine.  Male or child acceptable if that's what happens.

Either has or wants some sort of pet (eventually assigned war/hunting animal just fine if that happens).

Wants to become a wavebreaker some day.

Feel free to fill none of those requests, and I'll toss journal entries in as seems fitting.

[Megaman3321]

Alright, so here's what I have written so far (minus images); a lot happened in the first few minutes of playing.

1st Granite

With the removal of O_o from the position of overseer,  the duty of overseer falls on me through seniority. My first order of business as overseer?

Rooms. The housing district isn't large enough to support growth. I don't care if this is supposed to be a Type-IIa fortress or whatever, Type-Ic's were plenty fine.

Why are there beds next to the Trade Depot?

Doesn't matter.

3rd Granite
I've designated the crazy people for execution. Can't have them cluttering up our fortress.


5th Granite
I've taken the liberty of designating properly dwarven rooms for the people.

SHIT

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?!! (Kubuk the Commander lost his foot, and is bleeding profusely. Good news is that he's a skilled swordorf now, bad news is that he can't walk anymore.)

DRAFT THE MINERS!

Kubuk seems to be surviving against all odds; he may make it through this. I'm hoping he doesn't though.
I WANT TO BE WANT MILITIA COMMANDER.

The Nephal Swordswoman seems to be dying quite nicely.

20th Granite

I have instructed the miners to begin digging into the caverns. As the resident wildlife expert, I believe that the fish and wildlife there could potentially sustain us indefintely. Unless we get sieged.

(psst, images!)

Damn I knew it.  I dont know why our depot's broken but we may need a new entrance to it.  Stupid ramps. 

[Megaman3321]

Welp, apparently playing DF on a Celeron was a bad idea. Long story short: processor is fried. Skip me.

[o_O[WTFace]]

Do you have an intact save or do we restart from the end of mine? 

[Imp]

Fried processor + crazy prepared = intact save.

Few people, especially people who need to postpone showing screenies, are crazy prepared 

'Sides, the crazy prepared poster would have offered that save in the 'skip me' post.

[o_O[WTFace]]

Good point.  GreatWyrm, the last 6 months of dwarftime never happened and you are up.  BTW, I figured out whats with our depot.  The cage traps I built block wagons.  Be sure they get deconstructed as soon as possible. 

[GreatWyrmGold]

I'll download ASAP and should have my first impressions up by this evening.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Good news! Once I figure out why DF won't work, I'll start!

[GreatWyrmGold]

Great news! I've fixed DF! Somehow!

Edit: Wait, why can't I use the save? Is there something important other than the save file itself?

[o_O[WTFace]]

Just unzip it and run the df.exe
