Goddamn it, not again!
Once again I'm in charge of a Dwarven hell-hole. At least there's no magma, dragons or bronze collosi yet... I can only hope that this position will be survivable.
I KNEW IT! Wrong again.... this place is madness.... Sure, they gave me a nice office to handle affairs from. However, this fort is a horrible horrible mess. No order, no military, no defenses at all. And more coffins than chairs...
This won't do! It just won't... I've seen too much horrible destruction because of horrible management. Now its time to get this place back on its feet!
22nd Granite
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!
I designated a large group of trees close to our perimeter to be cut down so that we could begin arming ourselves. However the greenskins beat us to it. I'll have to assign the masons to make more coffins.....
As we're begin
15th Slate
The Greenskins have been chased off. I told the former leader to send out our military to deal with the greenskins. However the only answer I got was something about a ballista....
I tried asking the masons where our barracks was, and they said they had no clue...
Seems like I've got to do this myself.... As we have tons a bolts and a couple of crossbows. I grabbed a steel crossbow and made pincushions out of three of the six greenies.
Victory is ours!
And my room is coming along just nicely.....
28th Slate
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA They've come... poor bastards... A Mason working on LegoLords odd construction spotted them. Now we can bolster our ranks!
2nd Felsite
Oh the horrors! More greenskins, and they are coming down on our new migrants.. Time to pick up the crossbow...
Victory! Once again we've beaten the greenies! This time we've reduced our casualties by 50%! Brilliant!
And just as we beat the goblins back, the forest is filled with the screams of monkeys.... they come from the forest to loot us.... That won't happen on my watch.... time to bring out the crossbow again....
14th Of Hematite
Continuing the project of damming the river. However it appears as if the greenskins do not approve of our project... perhaps they live downstream... time to bring out the crossbow again....
16th of Hematite
I've give up my position as the hamlet manager to my dear Tirist, she is doing an excellent job counting dead goblins... She's also got the most beautiful be...
“Sir! You must see this!”
“Yes peasant? What is it?”
“The Humans are here!” said the new migrant, in a rather stressed tone. “And? Tell the traders to get ready for them, and bring up whatever we have of crafts...” “But sir, they're not here to trade. They brought whips and brawlers!, They've come to claim the goods of the previous Human caravan that apparently was looted.”
Apparently, I'll have to go get the crossbow again....
(This Siege was actually rather hilarious... The Humans gathered up on the right side of the map and then they charged us before I could send our only marksdwarf at them. Then they charged over the bridges just as the lever was pulled, leaving them all in our dried out moat... good target practice for our marksdwarf... I've also increased our military to get the marksdwarf count at 20%)
23rd Limestone
Not mutch happening right now. Legolord is out of bed, and is yelling at me since he can't find his axe and chainmail. I told him that since he's the bookkeeper, he should know. Then he went to his room and fired his catapult... what an odd chap...
25th Limestone
It all makes sense now! The goblins and the Humans are in league with each other. They've now started ambushing together!
I'm sleeping with my crossbow now....
7th Sandstone
During summer I set up a trapping earea east of our fortress, we have now successfully captured our first animal! I was hoping for a cougar, however a groundhog will have to do for now....
3rd Timber
More greenskins! This time we've caught another one of sneaky thieves in one of our cage traps... Let us pray that he is alone...
9th of Timber
Ambush! We can see them on the horizon! Time to load up the crossbow again....
My eyes have once again deceived me... They aren't greenskins, they're dwarves... perhaps I should clear my face of all this vomit.. or perhaps not... oh well.. atleast now we have the workforce to create some real shelter!
(We really need walls, and something to actually hide behind... this ditch/moat system is far too crude, and leaves us all open if the goblins bring archers.)
28th Moonstone
This is the final entry of this log. Written by me Tirist Rerrasurvad
War is being waged outside. My lover has fallen to the goblin hordes. Crossbow in hand...
The new military is doing what they can... is it enough? I do not know. Time will show...
If not... I know what lever to pull..... they won't get us alive....
