Glare at me all you want, you'll get the save when I have the ability to get it to you. I hope you don't mind Dropbox, I'll see if I can get it to you tonight that way.

Edit one: I also need to make a couple of edits to the save first. Namely, I misnamed Timeless's dwarf.  Also, I claimed my dwarf for next year in the save already (the captain of the guard)

Edit 2: Longinus, don't worry too much about the double-post, I do that all the time. Bad habit I picked up from playing forum mafia here (where no-edits is a rule).

Thank you. I believe I shall.

Opened up the save. Place doesn't look bad at all. Food stocks are a bit lower than I'd like for this population point. The complete lack of fish also mortifies me. Now for dorfings. Longinus, any preferred profession for your dwarf? You didn't specify, and it actually matters in this place. I can also provide a list of available dwarves at the start of the year.

I won't be able to start actually playing at any point before thursday. I can, however, do some plotting, scheming writing. Expect the first piece of plot tomorrow.

As for the dwarves in the other factions. Now would be a time to curry favor with the Whalers. I'll accept requests from factions, but they might not get done if the Whalers don't stand to benefit in some way. Let the intrigue begin!

No, really. I'd appreciate it. Gives me something more to do with the place.

EDIT: For the sake of my retinas, is it fine if I run a graphics pack? The excessive black space of the default ASCII kills me.

Consider it done. Your dwarf has been around for some time though. A lot of crundles have bonded to him.

wrote up my sotry of how Father Wolfe got to the fortress i hope its good

How Father Wofle Got to the Fortress:

The camp was not far from the capital. Some came from it to on their way to the fortress Crownhammers, where rebels were welcome. Others came simply to get away from the king and his soldiers. After all, if one was to be in a puppet state for a bunch of goblins, he should at least be away from the government. Still, there was one dwarf who had not come for either of those things, but rather to do something else. His name was Father Wolfe, and he came to build his church.

The church itself was built on a tall hill in the center of the camp. It was built from various rocks and blocks that could be found nearby, and the only thing notable about it was the stainedglass window in the rear. This was the preachers church: The Church of Armok.

One day Father Wolfe and his flock were in the church, performing their usual services. They were all dressed in all black with long black coats and wide-brimmed black hats that almost covered their eyes. As the end of the service came near, the preacher drew a dagger from his coat and his disciples followed suit.

"Let us recommit ourselves to our sacred oath and allegiance to Armok" he cried. Then he and his followers made a slice on thier non-dominant hand, allowing their blood to spill onto the floor.

"All that we have," led the preacher, "is but for the glory of Armok."

Suddenly the door was kicked down by a goblin lasher and he and his squad of crossbow goblins flocked into the church.

"Hello there, Father! Haw haw haw!" said the goblin leader.

"What is the meaning of this disturbance?" asked Father Wolfe. "This is a sacred space!"

"Haw haw haw!" said the lasher, "We were just passing along when we came across this young she-dwarf." One of the crossbow goblins chucked the corpse of a lady-dwarf onto the floor. "We were thinking that you were responsible for this."

"You and I both know who is responsible for this!" responded the preacher.

"True" said the goblin lasher guy, "but I'm not interested in getting accused of inciting any anti-goblin sentiment, so I'm just going to pin it on you! Everyone knows you weirdos offer blood sacrifices. It was just too bad that I was not here to save this ladydwarf from her fate, but at least i was here to execute the killers! Haw haw haw!"

Two church guards with spears ran up to the goblins.

"Fire" said the lasher goblin.

The squad fired at the dwarves, killing all of them except for the preacher. "Uh-oh!" he said, and he grabbed a stack of blank scrolls and a set of pens from the altar and jumped out the window. He fell screaming many feet before landing on a horse.

"Hyah! Hyah! He screamed as he kicked his feet into its sides, causing it to run at top speed as bolts whizzzed passed his head.

He would travel for many miles, leaving his attackers in the dust. He left the puppet state that was once The Matched Silvers, and he travelled through enemy territory until he came to a small-looking outpost by the coast. Here, he got off his horse and sacrificed it to Armuk as thanks for keeping him safe. When he looked towards the sea, he saw how beautiful the zombie birds looked as they swooped about. Suddenly, blood began to pour from the sky, a glob hit his face. Father Wolfe fell to his knees and put his hat on his chest.

"This blood is a sign from Armok. It's the promised land!"

(this is the song that played)

And so on 1st Granite of the 202nd year since Creation, Father Wolfe arrived at Crownhammers.

oops sorry forgot about the whole dont double post thing

You can use graphic packs if you want, just make sure to put the save back to the original set before passing it to the next player.

Patch 1.3: Guilds of Engravers and Animal Trainers added.

Deus: when you have the time, could you update which dwarves are in which faction currently?

Also, to Rhaken: the fortress guard are entirely incapable of engaging in battle right now, since it was three raw recruits and a veteran to train them, and they've spent quite a bit of time upgrading their equipment (adamantine helmets and masterwork silver maces and whatnot).

Also, what does your guild want for favor exchanges?

You could help promote their faith, for one thing. Even converting would count as a favor, albeit a small one. Support in future elections is also acceptable. Anything that aligns with their ideology of hard labor and equal rights for dwarves could also do it.

Party page and OP should be up to date with dwarf profiles and party membership, both living and dead. Let me know if it's better to just remove dead members outright rather than leaving them on the list.

Side note: Goden Tosidusol wasn't added to the Legion last year. Could you add her now?
