regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

My symbols are whip vines and a thick cresant.

Oh, man. My old fortress had a Hydra as its symbol. This one has three sweet pods. :(

Rings, rings, renditions of rings, rings.

Someone must've realized "Hey, rings are easy to engrave, guys! They're just circles! Let's do those!"

Actually, circles are pretty hard to engrave.

I've got a boring fortress image, a dwarf surrounded by dwarves.

But it is completely and utterly made up for by the BEST national seal ever.

Depressed Elves.

Epic!  ;D

So I got irritated with a human trader and decided to go on a killing spree in a town after my 1st fort in a new land, way back in 1056 or so after the 1st fort bombed.

... so anyway, several forts later, 1097 or so, I start a fort... I guess close to where I went on my massacre. My engravers are OBSESSED with the murders. At least a quarter of the engravings are "U" ... where "U" translates to a dwarf striking down a human.

I saw it so often I assumed it *WAS* a Civ image or the local government image... but nope... my dwarves are just obsessed with serial killers!

(The world is up to 1108 now, too... to make it more exciting I gave trolls firebreathing... sieges are fun :) )

I'm getting a lot of images of a dwarf raising a sock; there are no particularly notable socks in the history of the fort, so I'm assuming this is their civ image.

Mayhap you had a legendary artifact sock in a previous fortress?

"The Dwarf is surrounded by Dwarves"

Those are just the campaign posters for the yearly election.  Except that they don't seem to bother tearing them down ever.

I keep getting one or multiple waves.  My dwarves seem to have dreams of getting out of the mountains.
