*totally and utterly shocked/confused*
Alright, anyone want to tackle the migration? I don't think we can reclaim this...

It my still be possible to reclaim... gimme few days. I would like to make up for making a booby trap.

Good luck!

I've looked around the fortress and it seems, since there are multiple forgotten beast around, a military style reclaim would be too time consuming and would take a lot of reembarks. So... I've devised a "viable" plan for reclamation of Mineforest. I used "viable" in the loosest way possible since my plans haven't really worked before.

If we presume that most of the fortress mechanisms are intact I could simply embark, quickly make a new sealed off fortress and them dig down to the main fortress level. Once there, you only need to hit the switch to close the bridge that separates it from the rest of the fortress. I'm not really sure what's down there, but there should be ways draw all the baddies outside before doing that. The down side to this plan is... we would still be separated from the surface, just like the old days of the demon possessed Mineforest.

Currently, I have no time to execute any of this since college will keep me tied down at least for the whole week. If anyone wants to execute my plan be my guest... otherwise you'll have to wait at least until sunday for me to see this through.

Sorry for taking this long. I've tried reclaiming but it doesn't work. Dorfs won't job I assign them to even with every other job turned off they just stood there until the forgotten beasts come and eat them. At this point the best thing to do would be to make a new one. I've failed the mountainhome

You've done us proud though for the attempt. I'll try and make a new one, just post the save and we'll have a bit of fun trying to find a good area

Sign me up for a turn if this is going to continue.

If you do an new fort, I want in. I'd like to be a mason/architect on the next embark.

[highmax28]

Bokaza, just post the save and I'll edit anything that needs editing

[Bokaza]

You can just take exodius's save since I've actually done nothing except skip a year.

Good god, you guys made my laptoip chug, what the hell did you do!?

[exodius1]

Yup, nothing to see here..... [Walks away whispering nonchalantly]

But in all honesty it is normal for reclaim^^

I counted like 4 forgotten beasts, several goblins who were friendly, and about 8 corpses of demons...

Dear god, what have you done!?

Journal of Highmax, Ex-Baron of Mineforest
Well, I really have no idea how this happened, but next thing I know, I took six smartest dwarves amongst myself to go and try to escape the damned fortress of Mineforst. Well, we decided to get away from there... And by get away from there, I mean GET AWAY. Like the other half of the world away. It took us some time, but we're now at a nice mountain in the middle of a grasslands. Its much more beautiful then the frozen over mineforest... And on the bright side, it is much much warmer, although others say its burning hot. I'm fine with the heat myself. Elves, Humans and Goblis are our neighbours, as well as the mountainhomes not far to the east of us. Well, lets get started on the second chapter of Mineforest, which shall be known now as: MINEFIELD! ((Its not what you think guys...))


EDIT:
((I'm going to pull an apiks and get about 5+ years done quickly))

No spoilers remember But honestly I did not do that much. Can I get back on the rotation? Please? I promise not to mod kittens to explode^^

Its significant enough because the fortress fell when those four showed up and kinda murdered everything that moved

[exodius1]

They weren't there when I was getting murdered by goblins and trolls, although details like that can be overlooked when you have your lungs kicked in^^ What about my question?
