This is a succession fort using Mastwerwork Kobold Camp, because kobolds are awesome.  I have most of the MW settings turned on, except for warlocks.  The theme is surviving through any means necessary, including taking advantage of dark rituals to create a class of vampire kobold overlords.

I've chosen a wilderness forest location with a waterfall, very deep soil, clay, and a cavern.

Awesome! Good location, I was hoping for clay, but a cavern *and* a waterfall. Can't wait!

Downloading it now.


Looks like a herd of satyr and something called a "blood goat" are wondering around.

I love the combination of a waterfall and strange cavern entrance mound thing. I think when i get my turn at it I will build stuff there.

Thanks for the explanation!

[Knit tie]

Hello everybody, I am new and I would like to try my hand at being an overseer of this fort camp.
I promise not to eschew constructing beds and preparing food in order to build a cassowary death room.
I also most certainly won't piss off every major civilisation so that I can have multiple sieges fighting each other.
So, can I be an overseer, please?

Failing that, I'd like to claim a kobold. Any one will do.

[Impedocles]

Certainly, Knit Tie; I've added you to the list.

Don't worry, kobolds can sleep in the dirt and eat each other if necessary. 

I should have my year done and written up within a couple of days.  I keep losing progress to crashes whenever I right-click.

download it and replace mousequery. its a dfhack bug, but falconne fixed it

eat each other if necessary

Not true ^^

[sackhead]

i would like to play as overseer.

and in relation to the bed thing i believe the rule is
"No kobold shall sleep in a bed...... with sheets"

[Chimpanzee]

Kobold me please. The giant eagle eater one.
I don't want a turn though
Rename profession: Eagle Devourer

[zimer02]

I would like to be kobolded

The kobold "Shene Focuscrept" renamed to Zimer please.
(I won't be taking a turn as overseer for now at least)

[Impedocles]

Okay, I've added sackhead to the list and kobolded the rest of you.  I'm writing up my year now.
