We ARE said temple.

If there's room, someone throw me in the reclaim party as Krosan the Meat Shield.

Reclaim attempt notes:

a) Don't forget food and booze. There are some prepared meals left, but only about half of them are edible.

b) Silver hammers cost just as much as bronze spears and are at least as effective. Anything else is either too expensive or too weak.

c) There's actually not that much armour near the wagon, and ranging out to grab what's further away raises your chances of encountering thralls. On the other hand, there aren't enough points for anything besides some cheap shields.

d) As far as skills, 3 weapon + 3 shield + 3 dodge + misc combat skill seemed to work, though I'm no expert on combat. A doctor is probably a good idea, though it will be a while before the reclaim team has time to treat wounds.

e) Given the costs of skills and weapons, it may be better to lower the number of actual warriors, and bring a few low-skill laborers so other supplies (i.e. food, booze) can be afforded.

f) The best bet is probably digging down from the wagon and hoping you hit something. (Maybe with a little dwarven radar assistance.)

g) There are at least two FBs loose, but the one I ran into in my last attempt wasn't too threatening.

h) If we ever face another goblin invasion (or, rather, when) the goblins will turn hostile, so letting the thralls and goblins wipe each other out is the ideal outcome. I.e. don't kill more thralls than you have to.

Thanks for the advice Wlerin. The first update should come up today.

[Yuli Vlasi]

Alright, here's the plan:
My first goal will be to construct an airlock at the surface. Currently we only have one female dwarf (Kyh) and it will take ages to repopulate the fort without letting in migrants, so that's a priority.

The reclaim team consist out of three miners (Wlerin, Chaos-Maker and Minkerrow), two masons (Kyh and Tryrar), one speardwarf (Puff) and a mechanic (Mr.Strange).
 
Most of you guys wanted to be some sort of warriors, but we can't afford buying the necessary skills and there's more important stuff to be done first. We'll just throw you in a dangerroom as soon as we find one. Sorry.

The next step will be to reach the underground farms. I won't be looking at older saves to find out where it is, I'll just be digging in it's general direction. That's how a dwarf would do it.

The girl who asked me to ask for that dorfing is now simultaneously horrified and in stitches.
Well done!

Our stuff:


We also got two cats. A male and a female one. hehe.

e: embark!

[Yuli Vlasi]

Oh god, I just unpaused the game. I don't see any dangerous creatures except for these:

I'll be careful anyway...

I know this is unheard of 'round these parts, but BE SAFE.

[Yuli Vlasi]

for a moment, i actually thought that we did it. that we returned to the world of the living. this time we would not repeat our
old mistakes. we would live forever. everybody thought so. who could blame us? with the powers our protector bestowed upon us we had
nothing to fear. even the horrors HE sent to throw us back into the abyss we no match to anima'rytak. but even gods have to sleep...

we won't fail this time.


so i took a look at the stuff lying around or wagon in hopes of finding an axe (i forgot to take one with me and now there's not enough space to build proper walls on the surface, i may have to dig into the hill) but unless you count some steel armour, the only useful thing i found is the artifact gem cage that was made during one of my turns. right next to it lies the severed hand of my first murdermachines dorf. how symbolic.

[Yuli Vlasi]

guys. i found and axe. i found THE axe. it still lies where anima dropped it. wlerin was right. a thrall showed up and is currently fighting a goblin master thief. i keep getting ambush alerts from beneath the earth all the time...
tryrar is being haunted by his own ghost.

[Yuli Vlasi]

without the goblins we would have lost againby now. dwarves keep running off into nowhere like the fools they are but i somehow managed to keep them save until now. they reclaimed the void gods axe, but puff is hesitating to use it on a tree for some reason. the construction of the walls goes on slowly because i've been so smart to use the third heaviest stone in the game as the buiding material. shit.

haul them. haul the rocks if you want to live.

quick question: after i enabled woodcutting on everyone nobody picked up the axe anyway, eventhough it is claimed and lying in our weapons stockpile. nobody is dumping stuff too. any ideas on how to solve this?
