Will do.

For future reference, should I not be asking questions in this forum?

This forum is fine to ask questions. Its just the Future of the Fortress takes the questions right to Toady, and he will be able to tell you what's up with that for next release.

You wanted to know what happens in the current release? As far as I know the dwarves from the abandoned fortress form a group that moves around. You can have the migrate to your fort. Not sure whether the king keeps his title though. Sorry about that.

Still it was an important question to ask about the next release. I think the king will move to another site in the next release, however, when it comes out you will also be able to retire your fort.

Reading the legends, it appeared my abandoned fortresses retained the population, but the fortresses each changed it's name.  It read something like;
"Urist McBoozer ceased to be a member of Cheesewheel."
"Urist McBoozer became a member of Yakface."
...and so on.
Must admit though, it was a sweet sweet feeling when I finally remembered to make my newest embark of the same civ as my previous one and had my legendary weaponsmith, legendary cook and a legendary miner, all from the previous fortress, arrive with the first migration.  Can't wait for some of the previously trained militia to show up.
