A bronze colossus came by. ...I had to edit the raws to kill it, since even superior-quality steel weapons weren't doing any significant damage.

The surrounding lands have been made into a barony. I chose the expedition leader for the position.

Quakeswalled got its first forgotten beast, the obligitory feathered earthworm. It's in the 1st cavern layer, which is fine since that level is mostly flooded and the beast can't swim. I guess in DF Terms the 1st cavern layer looks like this:

Code: [Select]

~X~
O~~where O is the tiny island beast and X is the stone pillar with the dwarves.
Also in the Migrant Fort, a tantruming Cheese Maker is pummeling a depressed fisherdwarf outside the dining hall. Seems eerily similar to GZ TM trial.

Relicshield, pop. 76, Mid-Spring of 275 (Year 24)

The past few years have been quite eventful.  To celebrate his son's entry into the military, Adil I bestowed his sword, Spatteredcolumns the Responsibilities of Calamities, to Adil II.  They are now the second family to with members serving concurrently in the military, along with Edem II and Goden II.

Selenite Ivyrope, one of the original 7, and the armorer of the fortress, fell to a goblin snatcher.  The fiend stabbed him in the throat and he bled to death before he could be taken to the hospital .  His one true love was the legendary hammerdwarf and fortress 2nd-in-command Olivine.  Though they never married or had children, Selenite's legacy lives on in the fine armor he crafted. 

In happier news, Olon II & Ingiz II were married, giving Relicshield the very first marriage between dwarves who were born there.  The newlyweds are being coy, but rumor has it that an Olon III or Ingiz III is on the way! 

Finally, after over a year of digging, the first of the legendary caverns was breached!  The bizarre bioluminescent flora and even odder fauna had a strange beauty, but the dangers of the depths have been passed down in tales for generations.  Soon enough, one of the monstrosities from ages past made itself known!

The Forgotten Beast Nuwetha has come!  An enormous one-eyed pterosaur.  It has a long, spiral horn and it undulates rhythmically.  Its pine green scales are jagged and overlapping.  Beware its deadly blood!

Choosing caution over a head-on assault, Commander Sphalerite made a tactical retreat to lure the beast to its doom.  It gave chase, then came upon a room with over a dozen dwarf statues.  Thinking it had found its prey, Nuwetha entered.  The lone pillar in the room gave way while the creature attacked silent rock replicas.  Mighty are the forgotten beasts, but stone is mightier still.

Lenshatchets, 202 Timber 27:



-evil giggling- I love my Grand Master Cook.

Edit:


Yes, you read that right. 111,503 Dorfbucks worth of food. I LOVE MY LEGENDARY COOOOOOOOOOOOOK

Edit2: I'm using DFHack and I pressed 's' so I could search for the bins and get those instead of just the cloth inside them so I could get *all* the stuff... yeah no i accidentally the whole caravan. And now I can't offer stuff to them to make up for 'buying' out the whole caravan (WHICH I COULD HAVE IT COST LIKE 50K DORFBUCKS). And they were the humans! I like the humans! WHOOPSISHIT

[Loud Whispers]

Aw yeah, check em gloves. Or rather, a glove. One Dwarf gets to have a candy hand, who shall it be?

[pi_Age]

While human merchants were arriving, my barony got under siege by goblins with 107 invaders total (15 trolls and full squads of mace, axe, hammer and pike gobos; being led by sword, lasher and pike masters and a elite bowman) with the general, Lida the Elf, leading the assault. The entire elf race will pay for this treachery!

[Sirbug]

My stockpiles are full of goblin cages. I hoped to capture some rare animals, but all I got is common goblins. Plan to chain them up and send dwarfs to fight them one-on-one.

[VerdantSF]

Aw yeah, check em gloves. Or rather, a glove. One Dwarf gets to have a candy hand, who shall it be?

The one who made it !

[Eric Blank]

I like how it's named the homage of symmetries

[Sirbug]

Chained goblin bowmen it tiny rooms make wonderful training dummies for recruits. Until they remember they do, in fact, have bows and arrows.

[Loud Whispers]

The one who made it !

Professor Cog is now: Professor Cog of the fabulous left hands

I like how it's named the homage of symmetries

Ha ha just got the irony

[MaxZero]

I've embarked on a volcano, which is in a cold biome, but it doesn't snow in the winter despite the whole place being covered in snow.

almost all the snow is now covered in blood, it looks awful, and im not sure I can do anything about it as I cant melt the snow without plonking magma above or below it

[manboricua]

Training lots of war dogs. The untrained ones meet the butcher's cleaver.

[Sirbug]

Just realized I need to replace uniform in my military. Now 50+ dwarfs stripped naked and run around gathering clothes and armor.

[TheDarkStar]

I just started a new fort after my old one met a !!!monsters from the depths!!! end. I'm going to mine out an entire layer of a mountain and build there.
A few of the odder events:
1. The first caravan randomly left. I finally realized what happened when I saw "Wagon" in the list of dead things: a Kea attacked and managed to kill a wagon, forcing the merchants to leave.
2. I got three artifacts: an artifact war hammer, an oak blowgun, and a sphalerite ring. At least they're better than the artifact candy war hammer.
3. Because of how my old fort ended, most of my migrants come on the edge of tantruming. I can fix this, but I couldn't save the three dwarves who arrived on fire.
