Oh gods... well, you asked for it. I'm presently consorting with the Academy of Dwarven Sciences to make it a reality. We'll probably begin this weekend.

[Taupe]

My favorite succession forts are the ones where the primary method of defense is getting our enemies to kill each other.

We need to resurect immortalityTowers just to test Project Fuck The World...

I REQUIRE IMMEDIATE DORFING

Name, Niner, Custom Profession of "Glorious Overlord" and actual profession of Militiadwarf.

[Sanctume]

We'll probably begin this weekend.

It's happening!

Did I sign up for this yet?  I'm lost in all these "doom" this, "hell" that, "fail" here, and "cannon" there.

[Imic]

Dorf me immediately
Please

[Spish]

We have the embark; husking fog, poisonous slime, an aquifer layer, two reanimating zones covering the entire map, necromancers (their boss is a mediocre writer). Props to gchristopher for helping out. And as a bonus we have a butcher queen with a goblin general (this civilization's Wormtongue perhaps?). Now I just need to figure out what caused my FPS to drop from 300 to 30 over the course of a single year, may have just been a fluke

Yeah Sanctume, you're on the list.

[Archereon]

Jesus Christ. If the map is fully  reanimating, we're going to need to design pretty much everything around that.

No butcher shops for starters, and every single dwarf is gonna need to be armed and if possible armored. Early overseers might want to look into a well of unlife, or better yet hope the necromancers come with a book containing the secrets of life and death.

10 dorf bucks that we won't last 5 years

[Spish]

I propose every overseer build their own independent, fully functioning section of fortress, so that if there's a zombie outbreak then we can just quarantine it and forget about it.

There seem to be a good few anti-fun bugs in the current DF; for instance, there's one that can permanently prevent you from being able to get visitors, but I caught it and squished it. And I figured out what was causing the heavy slowdown (it involves animal people underground setting off a chain reaction by killing things). It's pretty crazy, but seems to be preventable. Going to want to run some more tests before we begin, so we might not be starting just yet.

[Imic]

Ill try to take the second turn. My stuff has been completed.

[Iamblichos]

I... am very psyched about this.  Been a while since I looked forward to a turn at one of these, but yes - soon.

[Spish]

Oi, one more thing. It just dawned on me, with the way armies work in this version we may not see a goblin siege for a while, if ever. There's like, a wall of elven settlements between us and them, and they aren't doing all that well to begin with. I can redo the history seed to turn our area into goblin central, but we'd probably have to lose the necromancers. I suppose it's inevitable we piss off the elves and the humans, at the very least.

Edit: Now that I think about it, it's unlikely we'll be reaching the population trigger for gobbos anyway, let's just roll with it.

If we don't piss off the elves, we wouldn't be able to call our selves dwarfs.

[Taupe]

You dont need a complex plan to piss off the elves. You simply need to throw the save at a random player and wait.

Is there any others way
