Today I Learned that there is an amazing amount of blood in a Rutherer.

Playin' with my new civ forge mod.
Suddenly, a stonecrafter withdraws from society, grabs two chert, and makes a piccolo.
Dangit.

lol i forgot to mention something earlier...when i hit magma, and worked on my forge area, it was all going great, i smoothed then fortified an area, but i see a trail of blood going up from my forge area...it was coming from my engraver, i checked her out...her lips had melted off and was bleeding profusely...she's still around, and has no lips >.>

i dont even really wanna know how the only thing wrong with her, is that her lips melted off...

[Jeoshua]

She probably got thirsty and tried to sneak a taste of magma...

Dwarves are stupid.

As my fort is falling toward various types of death - but tantrum spiral after fist fights on my dodge trap was the nearest. Then manual (due to lack of stone in aboveground fort) mist generator -> ding -> everybody is ecstatic.

Artifact spiked steel ball! Sweet!

I apparently have an emo dwarf. She has no friends or pets, never has, and is in fact one of my recent immigrants at Craftgates, but she has the "getting used to tragedy" note in her profile.

That's probably just because she moved to Craftgates.

Almost two years in, finally get the first mood. An engraver (with no other skills) claimed a craftdwarf shop (which immediately lowered my hopes) and began gathering up some rocks, tons of animal bones (like 40+ bones), and some tanned leather. I'm thinking "What the hell are you making?" My first artifact turns out to be a alpaca bone amulet with granite spikes and mule leather designs. And my Great Engraver just became a Legendary Bonecrafter.

No, Urist. Just... no. Get back to smoothing those walls.

Crundles, crundles, everywhere. My dwarves are up to their beards in *crundle (body part) roasts*, my bone carvers are working night and day on *crundle bone bolts*, and my dominatrix leather daddy leatherworkers are turning out *crundle leather helms* as fast as my baroness can mandate them. And still, the crundles arrive, horde upon horde, as if the entirety of Craftgates were inundated in crundlenip.

So naturally I'm contemplating methods of exploiting this new resource.
- "crundle bombs", cages packed with crundles placed where building-destroyers can find and unleash them.
- "crundle lunchboxes", cages of crundles tucked away in my dwarves' bolt-holes to provide emergency rations.

Also, beginning to plan out a road and a royal keep so that Craftgates can become a mountainhome.

Welp I finally got my next fort started and onto the trade season.  I also forgot to make a trade depot by the time the first caravan arrived... and they went insane and the caravan yak killed the guards, the merchants, and then jumped into a lake and drowned... so I got a LOT of free stuff my first year.  Made me happy that I got so much stuff with no effort due to me forgetting to do something... like build a depot.  Oh well, the diplomat didn't care so all's well.

Ironcrypts has, well, coffins made of iron (I made sure of that, except for the first death, which was a little unexpected).

Also the most inept goblin civ living right next-door.  First siege turns up, stands on the edge of the map (no leaders captured, no civil wars) and wanders away after a while,  So little bother I didn't notice when.

Second lot are confused by my traps - two gates, each three wide, with one line of cages, a bridge, another line of cages and a line of bronze weapon traps.  How the entire ambush managed to get captured, slaughtered, or just scared from that, I'm not sure, but my squad wasn't needed.

The last attempt was more successful.  Three of my hunters were slaughtering hunting a huge pack of guinea pigs, when the gobbos came from nowhere and started whaling on them.  Killed two, but when the third happened to be a militia captain moonlighting, things changed, but I managed to catch half the wildlife in the kill zone for the squad, which was not pretty.

Hope the elves/humans start sieging me soon...

Failed abortions of those sucky badger like creatures I made (They can only push) showed up
They are getting beat up by civilians.

pumping magma onto the burning field to fend off goblins.
