Give Toady a break, this new version of his is practically a brand new game so of course there are going to be a few bugs.  But I think mislabeling tiles as outside when they should be subterranean was the result of trying to fix some other bug that caused roofed over tiles to count as subterranean.

Once again I'm posting updates. Please bear with me if the pace is slower than before, as Christmas and other events are consuming my time. As well as, of course, the need to work for money for food.

Captain's Log. 17th of Hematite.
Once more I have been re-elected. It's now 13 years or so since I struck the earth here, and I have been in control ever since.

Our current major projects include construction of the external catapult and archer fortifications, as well as the removal of stone from the great hall.
The latter wouldn't normally be considered as a project, but there is simply so much of it, there's no other word that adequately describes it.

Captain's Log.
Today was a tragic day.

Our ploy to disable the ability for the Noble to kill our compatriots at will has backfired. The Baroness, upset about us not fulfilling some ridiculous mandate or another, sent through a  request to have one of our citizens thrown in prison.
I barely glanced at this, as it has become commonplace.

It wasn't until I was told one of our heroes had been murdered in his bed that I took a second look. I'm told at first he was happy he could not be thrown in prison.

The Baroness sent one of our most powerful fortress guards to beat him.
At least it is now clear where the loyalties of some of the guards lie.

Erib Axestand, you will live on in honoured memory.

[Captain Mayday]

Free dwarves is not a problem, given the mortality rate.
There's a bit of a queue though, and we wait on new migrants. Pathfinding is also slowing things down.

Updates are slow at the moment because of:
Holiday
Girlfriend's birthday
Jury Duty
Work

Haha. Nice story.
Zonhin
Male
Engraver

Zonhin is an artist. A pretentious, unlikable artist. Almost completely focused on making his art at the expense of his health. Zonhin tends to not make friends easily, or at all. He introduces himself as "Zonhin, the Grand Artist and Beloved Friend of All" to most important people in the fortress, even though he has not created a single engraving in his life.

So what happened to this?

Probably nothing, as Captain Mayday's last post was just a few days ago.

[Zonhin]

Ah.
I was a bit impatient, wasn't I? Well sorry, it's pretty late where I am, and I'm not thinking straight.
