Seven on two, H.Spawn lost seven, G.Spawn lost one I think

That's better than I was expecting, at least, although it concerns me that our defenses are already taking losses.

Well, with how many G.Spawn there are, I'm not too concerned over the possible loss of one. '^^

Yeah, I'm freaking out over nothing :V  Still, we desperately need to get a WMD of some sort up and running by the time they're all gone. That or figure out a way to let migrants into the fort.

E: Something else that concerns me is the extent to which we are basing our operations out in the caverns. If an FB attacks, we're boned.

Still mentally going over PSPPs as opposed to TSPPs '^^ But I'll think of something long-term that should deal with it.

And don't worry, I've got a plan for them. And Zetta does have a knack for large machines that can at least KO a forgotten beast; she's not the Electrolyser for nothing or so she tells herself

Sorry for the lack of activity; a semiotic analysis task came up for Uni and I've spent the past few days proving that Mad Max: Fury Road is incredibly pro-feminist.

Fortress work should continue today, with hopefully another writeup today, if not tomorrow

Cool. As long as you check in regularly and aren't blatantly stalling, there's no need to apologize.

In other news, the writing piece I was dragging my heels on is finally finished! This'll probably be the last one for now. Just need to edit it and it'll be posted.

Here's the new story piece, finally. Massive tl;dr warning on this one; it's a little over twice as long as the last story I posted.

E: Er, not to be a drip, but am I somehow irritating people by posting these? I note that the thread seems to kind of go silent sometimes after I post a story .-.

That was an excellent story, Frog :3~<

Also; sorry again for the lack of update, ol' Thermonuke decided to run DF at a measly 2 FPS today, so literally nothing has happened. Hopefully it'll run smoother tomorrow, or Friday if Uni gets in the way again.

Considering the fact that we are drowning in FPS issues and most of us have other things to do anyways around this time of year, I really don't care how long it takes you to do the update as long as you keep us posted every couple days or so. Like, if your next five posts here are literally just copy/pasted "I played a couple hours but didn't make much progress" I honestly wouldn't care.

That said, it might be best to do micro-updates a la cherry-hearts' turn for the sake of getting something out.

As long as things are at least happening, I'm okay. How's the FPS holding up?

Sticking around high twenties now. Thermonuke must've just been overheating the other time.

This talk of double-digit FPS is making my laptop feel terribly insecure. *pets it reassuringly*

I'd imagine that if my laptop could directly contact yours, it would also reassure it and claim something about the cold being good for it.

My laptop has kicked the bucket and its charger smells of molten solder. Tomorrow is the backup, Monday I get a new one; fortress progress will be delayed a couple of days.

Guess it was just saying goodbye w/ the high FPS.

I'm intensely-pleased that we can add an actual, physical computer to our body count.
