Dig a two by two shaft of up/down staircases, going down five z levels, start carving out a chamber on the third level for everyone to use. If anyone wants to borrow my wood to make a training axe and start lumber operations, I'd be willing to allow them to.

*To the leader of Fortificers*
- So, Udil, do you have blueprints of our defences? You were silent all the way here. I think I could make some Surprises there.

So, first idea I have is Minecart Grinder Mill at the trade entrance:

       #####
       #▲═╗# ║-Ramp
########║#║#############    V<^ - motion direction
Caravan+║+║+++++++++++++    V ^
++++++++║+║+++++++++++++    V ^
Entrance║+║+++++++++++++    V ^
########║#║#############    V>^
       #╥═▲# ╚-Track under bridge, ║-Ramp
       #╨### - Deactivation Raising bridge
       #▲#   ╚-Ramp
       ###
      
Level Above:
         ###
         #▼######
       ###≡┼..... - path to trackstop
       #▼═╝######
       #####


When decativation Bridge is raised and minecart set at the stop - push it north, it goes down the ramp, accelerates, moves, turns to next ramp, accelerates again, and so on.
When bridge is lowered, cart jumps into green zone, goes up one way and stops at the trackstop. It's ready to be pushed again.

Later I'll present a set of minecarts moving along the caravan entrance. I was always wondering how the collision of wagon and minecart looks like....

Meanwhile - make a few more mechanisms, arrange The Laboratory where Gar will be living and making small experiments.

Doing a small Spring Break trip so I'll be back Tuesday! 
That'll give you time to get your shit together.

Great, so we can use their action points for our goals!

Forced labour could be inefficient, but it has good sides too.

[chaosgear]

Oh, uh, just have me do whatever needs to be done, I guess. I just want to help get the fortress on its feet until we can go our seperate ways.

Unlike some people.

[Korbac]

I think we were waiting for you to come back!

[Brewster]

I think we were waiting for you to come back!

Whelp? What should the group do?

[Korbac]

Well if the other dude isn't going to post orders I pour all our points into making a communal meeting hall.

Messengers ho!

[BronzeAge]

I thought I was going to make the room I talked about building earlier?

[Korbac]

That works too! Unto glory, Bronzeage!

Messengers ho!

[chaosgear]

There sure is a lack of communication in this fortress.
Even among the messengers, ironically enough.

I guess this means it's time to start doing my job.

"Them dwarves seem so unorganized. Without anythin' besides me journal to write on all I can do is to start hangin' the announcements on the group yak."

"Construction of the messenger halls begins on the 21st. We need a stone carver for our pots and probably a carpenter for some beds. We offer a free butchering station and crafter's shop Those joining must sign the horse.

C'mon, Brewster! Don't let us down, now!
