A long, long time ago, The dwarves of the rhyming-occult palisade marched out to build a new fortress.
Their old fortresses had fallen to the goblin menace, and although the dwarves had lived on in Moonhome, on a far off island, They wanted their mountains back.
The goblins would pay.
So they went to a new Fortress.

It would be Stonehelm.
Home to the kingdom of stone.
Flying the banner that was the hope of stone.

Supplies were gathered.
Plans were laid out.
And seven dwarves left the great bridge in a small wooden cart.



Journal of Imic II, Expedition leader of Stonehelm.

We have arrived, at long last.
Spoiler: Stonehelm. (click to show/hide)

I have laid out digging instructions for the gate, nestled in the side of the mountain. I am also think-

"... And so, these are the plans."

"but sir... That's mad! We'll be workin' fer ages! I... But...
Listen, there is method to my madness, I have a plan. Finish this all, and we'll all be livin' in homes fit for a king. And, when the king himself comes, He'll have the greates' quarters EVER!
"... If you're sure..."

Not very many, though. Erush can help out a good bit, though.
We are nearly done the first layer, also! I am making plans about the layer below already.

I shall update this soon.

This fortress design is new to me.

Shit. I'd never thought of making a massive artificial valley underground really... if that's what you're doing.

The last image is broken.

This ought to be good. I've tried the artificial cavern a couple of times but I always try to make it too big and lose patience with it.

Even if you found a suitable opening, I doubt it would prove all too satisfying. And it might leave some nasty wounds, depending on the moral high ground's geology.

Baffler likes silver, walnut trees, the color green, tanzanite, and dogs for their loyalty. When possible he prefers to consume beef, iced tea, and cornbread. He absolutely detests ticks.

YES.
THIS IS MY EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIL PLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
I've set the pop cap low, so I don't have to take care of a bazillion whining dwarves until I'm actually ready for them. Until that time, I have plans for food, drink, and defense.

To build the greatest fortress that ever was.
I'm slightly worried, though. This place supposedly has shallow and deep metals, but none so far. Maybe we're too far up the mountain? We'll see, either way...

[/ooc] I'm open to dorfing in this new fort, since I'm being veeeeeeery ambitious with it.[ooc]

I'm digging in the mountain biome, which I'm faaaaaaairly sure was the one with all of the minerals. I'm fairly sure, also, that the mineral scarcity was... much higher.
