Shovels dont exist anymore.. read the manual... no digging til you manage to steal a pick from the dwarveDiseases are on by defaut.. but they only exist for dwarves atm... would be a bit unfair ;)

I'll be watching this... maybe take a turn at some point... in the far future ;) when I'm not online from a Serbian mcdonalds... ^^

Meph:  I was a bit confused on the shovel front.  I am not sure, but i think the manual embark section says you get shovels in some profiles, but the weapons section does not include them.  Anyhow, i just decided to go forward.  This is only my second real masterwork embark.  Working through dwarves on another.

Nidilap can start the Orc fortress. I'm overwhelmed with stuff right now. Move me to second on the list.  Nevermind, I'll find time, damn it!

My only question for readers:  Should I write in normal speak, or how I think kobolds speak?  I imagine they sound like goblins in Discworld.
I vote for the Discworld version!

OK, so I thought we were all looking at how each player set up different forts with different races, however, am I wrong and each race is a form of succession fortress instead?...helps if I read the OP fully...

So be it.  Update will probably be on the weekend then.

Why did I get a spam of 'enabled tweak ...' when I loaded the save?

I can't open the orc file you linked to.  Could you put it up in zip or rar format?

Ork save as a .zip @ http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=8160.

Also, pretty funny you'd sign up for a succession fort without reading about it timeless.

Ikr? Probably read it, understood what it was when I signed up, then misremembered or forgot later.

You can put me into the active rotation for the other races.  I think I am starting ot get the hang of MDF, at least to some extent.

I'll upload my save for Kobolds and a write up in the next day or two.  It's a killer week at work.

I'll tell you, the sheer lack of digging to do with kobolds leads to lots of time to do other things with them.  I think this is the first fort ever where I have stable food, a full military squad, with arms and armor (at least assigned) and most of the workshops sorted within the first year.

As long as the kobolds have plenty of meat/bones to eat, and leather to build their tents with, everything should be fine on their end. For protection I'd go for the Druids. They are their melee mages, cheap to make, and not bad at all.

Orc fortress to be passed on

I had a write-up, but it got deleted.  Here's the end of year one save:

Sign me up for the other two forts.

I don't have enough time right now, but when I do, I'll jump in.  PTW for now!

Since all three first years are in, lets see some screens :) Comparing fortress layout, wealth, population would be interesting.
