Roll back to before Taupe's disastrous turn

Keep going and see what happens

Let it die

[Taupe]

By all means, jump in. Im sort of away from home until the place has been cleaned by proffessionals, which thanks to poor timing and this whole ''Easter'' thing, will begin as soon as tuesday.

[TheFlame52]

What do I need to do? I'll start for real tomorrow.

I'm gonna reclaim that fucking surface if it kills me.

[chaotic skies]

Go ahead and kill yourself, feel free. I want to be at the front of the charge though

[Taupe]

Keep in mind, the fort has banshee sieges that can scream through walls and ko people by the dozens. Dealing with them is the reason I hum... unleashed demons on the surface (it worked) We are slowly running out of demons, tho, so we'll either need an army (tough luck) or at least a fucking awesome contraption. Alternately, you could trap random invaders such as goblins, or force-breed all the pets, and store them underneath the surface to act as banshee targets until they get bored and leave.

Colonizing hell is also an option at this point. While the devil's away...

[TheFlame52]

HOLY SHIT THERE ARE SEVEN FORGOTTEN BEASTS ON THIS ONE TILE

IN ALL MY YEARS OF SAVING SUCCESSION FORTS I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING THIS BOGGLING

WHAT EVEN IS THIS FORTRESS

...

But I can still save this place. Can I just keep playing until someone complains? Also, my plan was to connect the caverns with the surface, but they're already connected and their various inhabitants refuse to fight.

...

It's time to get some ORDER around here!





I heard some of you are making the king UPSET.



SO LINE UP!

[chaotic skies]

Hey Taupe! Hate to be a troll, and feel free to yell at me, but I found something cool that I thought you might appreciate

[Mr Frog]

But I can still save this place. Can I just keep playing until someone complains?

By all means. It's hilarious to see a newb's reactions to this mess; we've kinda been sitting in it for so long that we've forgotten that living in a hermetically-sealed secondary fort while demons conga freely around the first fort and surrounding surface terrain isn't, y'know, normal. I'll fiddle with the turn list. Welcome to purgatory!

E: Also I am going to put both installments of TheFlame's horrified breakdown at the state of the fort in the quotes bank and possibly in the OP because I legit had become desensitised to how screwed this place was:

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY CORPSES
WHY IS EVERYTHING FORBIDDEN
WHY ARE THERE A BUNCH OF MINECARTS SPLASHING MAGMA
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY DEAD THINGS
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY CHILDREN
WHAT THE FUCK ARE BANSHEES
WHY IS THERE A GREATER SPAWN IN AN OFFICE
WHY IS LITERALLY EVERY AVAILABLE SPACE FULL OF COFFINS
WHY IS THERE A SKELETON IN THIS BEDROOM
WHY ARE THERE THREE FOUR FORGOTTEN BEASTS HERE
WHY IS THE STAIRCASE FULL OF WATER AND CORPSES
HOW DO WE HAVE A LIVING KING
WHY IS THE KING DEPRESSED
WHY IS THE KING MISSING AN ARM
WHY ARE THESE COFFINS ALL MUDDY
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY BODIES
WHY ARE THERE ONLY TWO GHOSTS

WHO LET THIS HAPPEN

All in all, I rate this fortress at 1.7 Murdermachines. I dwarfed myself without looking and WHADDYA KNOW I'M A WOMAN! Can I use DFhack if all I do is clean things up/improve FPS?

Frog, is it safe to assume that this is your reaction to all this thread activity right now?

Not gonna lie, I have basically spent the past couple days continuously floating on a cloud of pure hype.

E: although i'm not sure if frankenstein's monster is horrific enough to serve as an analogy to the abomination we created

Yup, that's me. Proud mommy. *wipes away tear* Our little disaster darling's come so far.

[Kadian]

I never knew you and Taupe had something intimate going on, huh. I guess it explains a lot though.

In any case: Everyone, get your helmets and grab all the food and drink you can find, we have to hide! someone is trying to be overseer again!

Yay for senseless brutality! How dare they be miserable in the presence of His Gaudiness?

Also, I am terribly sorry...

@Monitor Lizard, oh man, that image reminds me of Barba Havers, a character in this audio book series I'm listening to the past couple of weeks.
