My dwarves made a statue of the dwarf goddess of suicide. I didn't knew they had goddesses for that.

Also, the dog food industry is coming along well. My dog population just doubled in a matter of days, I have over 20 dogs now, half of them being puppies. When they'll grow up I will butcher them all, and be rich with leather and meat !!! Edit : Tripled ! Three other dogs gave birth, bringing the total of new puppies from 10 to 17.

My starting 7 all dehydrated or got killed by Werewolves.  So did most of the migrants.  Right now, I have three dwarves left:  the expedition leader/woodcutter/militia commander (who is in bed resting a werewolf injury - we don't have water, so he's probably doomed), the brewer, and the blacksmith/mason/broker.

So I've got one guy dying, one guy making coffins, and the other guy making wine.  It's been a while since I had quite this much Fun.

Edit:  Oh, and there's a ghost.  I didn't even know ghosts had been added!

Then the only possible method I see is draining the lake with a pump, channelling down, then sealing from below with a wall.

Exactly. But being the careful person I was, I built a reservoir to contain all the water, so as not to muddy surrounding tiles. To avoid flushing accidents because of rainfall, I built the reservoir over the pond and let the water drain into a farming zone through the passage afterwards. To get into the pond, I constructed stairs, and to seal off the way while keeping all my dwarves inside, I replaced the stairs with ramps and removed them from the bottom. And yes, I sealed the dwarves in with a wall under the northernmost tile of the southern pond.

The Great Rot has recently taken 37 of our friends and family in Laboreddrinks. Unfortunately, the majority of the deaths were children. The 3 largest families of the fortress have been reduced to only one or two children. Fortunately, the contaminant that caused this disease has been eradicated, and the 9 remaining patients have a chance to be treated properly by the totally overwhelmed medical staff.

The queen has declared martial law in order to curb the recent tantrum spiral. So far, 2 have been arrested for murder, 3 for vandalism, and a marksdwarf was ordered beaten for punching his commanding officer. For some reason, the responding officer decided to use his sword to beat the unruly marksdwarf, and a fine warrior of Laboreddrinks had to be put to rest. He was the first military death since we broke the massive goblin siege 4 years ago. Unfortunately, we must now turn our attention to the kobolds, who have stolen and sold enough from the bodies in the aftermath of The Great War to equip themselves in steel. The warriors of Laboreddrinks will have a hard fight ahead

Part 9 of my LP is update

Writing migrant updates sucks so much. Again, fuck all happened during this update other than the arrival of 4 migrants.

I really don't get why so many of the dwarves in Reveredtour are female. Though it doesn't really matter. What does matter is that god damn demikraken. I fucking hate it. I wouldn't mind if it had just left the map, but instead it keeps swimming back to my fort. Making me think I'm going to catch, then it just goes away. One time it walked right up to a cage trap, then decided to dive back into the ocean. I'm just going to kill this fucker now.

I finally dwarfed myself . Oh, and I now have a hydra .

Hey Kraken, you know that dwarves who can swim will actually path through water in this version?

if I give swimming to all of my Draconians, will they actually swim through my lake into the fortress?

The newest legendary artifact in Gulfcraft:
Cave spider silk braies called  :Menwildness the Saveage Speech"

"This is a giant cave spider silk braies. All craftdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is made from giant cave spider silk cloth. This object is adorned with hanging rings of limestone. On the item is an image of diamonds in giant cave spider silk".

Looked up brais... I just created a legendary underwear, made of silk, with limestone rings. The first sex toy I've heard of in dwarf fortress.

Yeah. I still don't trust them. Dwarves can cock up anything. So I'm going to keep them out of the water as much as possible.

The mighty fortress of Claspedchurches has just broken the back of the third major goblin siege. During the fighting, I noticed that one of my axedwarves was fighting completely naked with no armaments except for his *Adamantine Shield*.  Said dwarf has been renamed Captain America for his awesomeness even though he got no kills. (adamantine shields, do not a good weapon make). However, his ability to survive the entire thing without a scratch while buck naked is most impressive. The siege consisted of 80 goblins, 20+ Trolls, and about 30 giant rats that the goblins rode in on. Captain America was on the front lines the whole time.

Shortly afterwards, I updated from .08, so he no longer suffers from "The Arsenal Dwarf Has Attention Deficit Disorder" Syndrome, and now he goes equipt with normal weaponry, but it was awesome while it lasted.

I just started a fort where I'm going to seal off and repopulate the caverns with the descendants of my starting 7, should be fun times. A new deep Dwarven civilization, built from nothing. I won't ever even be able to tell how much wealth my fortress has, what with never having anyone with the Appraise skill...

A peasant went out crossing a frozen pond, the ice melted, he fell in and died.

His dog went out after him, got trapped in the pond but somehow stayed alive. The water was drained out to fill the underground well, but the corpse was still there, unburied.

The dog, still, has had multiple litters of puppies, and the pond is now more or less a large pit of puppies.

ONE goblin hammerer has just killed my entire squad. F#CK!!!!So long outfitting them, getting them to hold real instead of wooden weapons. F^CK!!

I like being attacked, but this time, my bridges didn't rise () and despite all except one being captured or dealt to with weapon traps, this ONE F*CKING gobbo has almost broken my fort.  That's ALL THE LITTLE MAGGOTS WITH ANY FIGHTING SKILL DEAD!! And the goblin still there...

Now I've got that off my chest, it is kind of fun, but not when horribly unbalanced things happen.  Oh, well.... Time for some fun, I guess...

Cancel the fun - one goblin has just killed all 58 dwarves. F%CK.
