Awesome as always, I noticed the goblin bone throne had an image of the old queen on it, and the adamantine table, which is Urists dining room so it could even fit well in there. I'll just wait for the goblin bone and adamantine throne that's inevitably coming though.

Yeah I debated the adamantine vs goblin bone thing.  At first I was going to keep the adamantine throne because...well....adamantine.  But then I thought, adamantine is just a status symbol....goblin bone however....now that's dwarfy!

I like to imagine the image of old Queen Cog Giltbalance the Tactical Relief of Fortifying in horse leather is stitched into the padding on the seat cushion.  That way, whenever Urist sits down, she's sitting triumphantly on the face of her old dead ruler/rival.

Awesome as always. :)
I have a question, though... What's with the 'Wise' guy turning up? Is that some feature of 40d I haven't heard about?

Yeah he is a 40d noble.  He is the Philosopher.  He doesnt do anything...but he also doesnt make any special demands on the fort.  So he is one of the few nobles that is never a threat to stability.

I'm glad to come back and see how much more this has evolved!
If you're still dorfing, could I have one, just named Innigma. Throw him/her anywhere if you do, I'm not picky.

"Hallo.  Mai name is Innigma Mataya.  You keel mai father.  Prepare to die."

Sorry, I read that line and I instinctively thought of that!

This sums up the Queen's thought process to any non-worshippers entirely.

Spring 290



These are somewhat turbulent times (although compared to some of the other times at Blockedlance maybe its not so bad?).  With Prince NobodyPro dead, the Empress was even more paranoid and on edge.  With Afrosquirrel dead the Kurkites are on edge.  And the Khamerites....well a lot of them were dead, so they were definitely feeling the pressure.

Urist decided to increase the size of the military.  She was worried by the fact that the military of Blockedlance was a bunch of superdwarvenly tough geezers.  Most of them were pagans as well, and of questionable loyalty.  Urist grabbed some of the younger Khamerites who were showing devout loyalty to Armok.  Perhaps these few Khamerites could be isolated from their clan and rehabilitated?  They could join their grandmother guarding the fortress.  And hey....maybe someday on a whim she would throw them into the arena to fight each other to the death.  You just never know.

The new dwarves are named Ganon, Urjael, and KeltiKnight.  They are given some axes and sent to train under the swordsman Baron von Freden.  In this way, the Khamerites shall bleed and die to defend the courtyard, and Urist can hold her more dear defenders back for emergencies.










They are knighted in a ceremony in the Temple of Armok, which has seen some recent additions.  There is seating on wooden pews for the congregation.  Theres a few pillars around.  Some gold statues.  Theres some adamantine statues up on pillars, and between them (you cant see it in the Visualizer) is an artifact ruby idol (of Armok) sitting majestically above the faithul.

The year 290 brings us another wave of elves throwing themsleves at our gates.  Jazz and MadMonkey24 are there to defend our home.



A Kurkish Farmer happens to be outside as well, however.  He gets a beating before Lord Jazz rescues him.  Check out his last name though.  What a great name for a peasant.  Certainwhip.



Jazz and MadMonkey fight off wave after wave and are pulled away from the front gate.



A few elven stragglers manage to get one civilian kill.  It is Moose, a Slemitic Noble.  She bleeds to death out their in the field before Jazz and MadMonkey could return to the eastern gate.



This is a shocking blow.  The Slemites are the smallest clan, and each death impacts them greatly.

Also, Moose was our Metropolis Manager.



So now we have to find a new outpost manager. What an interesting life Moose lived.  She grew up the daughter of a Duchess and Duke that was murdered by her Queen.  Whn she was 12 she was abducted by quarcaine-addicted creepy miners and held in a cave for some time.  Then she came back and was Metropolis Manager.  Now...now she was a rotten corpse in a field.  She was taken down to her tomb in great sadness.

The Expendables... ;)

Looking foward to seeing Yoigen grow up, make friends, learn the subleties of dwarven politics, learn from the sages and somehow gain a place of power, ushering a new era of love, peace and contentedment...
Or more likely dying horribly when some sneaky, greed-driven plot to overthrow her tyrannical mother backfires in her face. :P

Heh, If the elves think they'll breach blockedlanced then they're far from right. Also any news on my dwarf nuthulu? Hopefully he hasn't been crushed, maimed, burned, executed, drowned or been sacrificed.

Can I please have a dwarf in this hellhole of a fort?  His name should be Nix and can he be one of the Khamerites?
