I got the most massive migrant wave. 18 and counting, one being a legendary farmer.

Awesome, if someone wants to play before I'm back in my house, just keep bumping me to the next year.  Looking forward to it!

Updated the first post with links to all story posts.

More than half of the people finished year 2 already, and we only need 2 more people for year 3. Thanks guys, this is getting much more feedback than I thought.

One of them is me. I will finish it as quickly as I can, but it might take a couple of days for me to be finished.

The comparison and stats of each year is really what cinches it.  We're at war, after all.

[Meph]

I can do a little bit more in-depth comparisons for year2, if people like that. Have a better look at the stocks, nobles and the like. Would be a bit unfair for the poor hermit though

No rush. Take all the time you need. Unless its more than a week without posting

"After an in-depth analysis, our specialists have determined that the Hermit has attracted the lowest number of nobles and has the second smallest military."

Tee.  You can get 40+ if you play your cards right.

☼Dwarves☼ - Year 2, Spring.

Literally 2 seconds after unpausing, this happened:

Congratulations to Qorthos and Nil! However, unless you really want to halt some areas of work for a week again, I would advise you not to have such a large celebration.

Breached caverns, hopefully not too many dangerous things walk by while the mason constructs the staircase and makes it secure. Breached 4 z-levels above cavern floor, too.

Migrants arrived:

- Sulus, a professional engraver and mason,
- Erush, who, apart from being a novice mechanic, is also a novice hammerdwarf, shield user, and armor user, as well as novice dodger and fighter, probably suitable for military,

- Lolok, a novice butcher,

With 41 dwarfs living in the fortress, I should better get to work on the bedrooms. Also looking to extract some ore from the cave, as we do not have any to smelt right now. Sorry for blurry pictures, but the only way I know how to take large pictures is to zoom out.

In other news, I forgot to dorf myself this season. Yes, there is cave moss spreading itself across the sand in the Fortress.

They got married at a wooden table. That's so exotic.

Pretty much all the tables in the Fortress are wooden.

But he will have the lowest number of deceased fort members. And probably he could become the most skilled person of all. All this being 250 years old. And if it is not impressive enough, he is the only one who has a piece of stable warpstone in his cave.
Also, He is quite wealthy. 48000 for a sole man because he doesn't need to share with anybody.

May I ask, Qorthos, what all the acronyms mean? For example, A-Engineer, F-Farmer.....so on and so forth.

[qorthos]

It's a grouping (mostly) based on their caste. 

F- for farming
M- for metal
S- for stone

A- gets most general tasks, like alchemy, and administration, etc.

It helps me find group of dwarves in therapist easily.

Ok. Thanks.
