Sounds nice. I'll have to set aside my dreams of every dwarf drinking sunshine though. Btw, is there HFS? And I have no experience with orcs, so I should probably only get a turn after we are well established.

the HFS is come, and is almost entirely gone.

our stocks include 35k stones(which takes about 3 minutes to load in the stocks screen, no exxageration), 70 adamantite rocks, 50 wafers, , not very much other ores, 100 iron bars and 300 gold, 1 steel bar, a gem of almost every type 75% are cut, 75% are not, 15 or so odd artifacts, 3 of which are made of adamantite, 5 of which refrence an adamantite chain.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

the only things the fortress needs:

anti-cave adaptation ceilings(<-this is small megaproject size, living quarters are huge in depth!)

super generic building megaproject.

drop the volcano pool 3-4 levels for amusement.

an arena, and also more cage traps
(we don't have very many captured goblins because of the 10 rows of weapon traps before the cage traps at the entrance)

something to do!

a raised resevoir for water.(quick, it can borrow from the waterfall system)

a raised resevoir for magma.(a slow process, I will begin work orders for pumps immediately)

wait for another king to show up (could be 3 years, or never)

order copious amounts of flux , pig iron, and steel goods (we don't have flux)

make some raw adamantium, metal adamantium statues.

make furniture for any possible need.

make clothing for our half naked dwarves.

build pitchblend shared nobles quarters.


but honestly, its all unnecessary stuff with too much waiting.

I never realized it, but the fun with adamantine stops after you breach the demon pits(win or loose, sticking around isn't worthwhile.

also, I will put this save up tonight/tomorrow but after the adamantines gone I expect most people to call it a day.

Wait... 35k stones? Add another project to that list: dwarven atom smasher. Objects cause fps drop I have heard, so destroying at least 20k should give us like 20 fps or so if were lucky.

It's taken 10 years to mine that stone, it will take another 35 to move it, with everyman in the fortress hauling.
or 10 per year per 100 dwarves = 35 years

Are you interested in the next turn? it might be yours indefinately.

I will make ore adamantium statues, and water adamantium statues.
I think we have all the gems,but we don't have them all in both cut and uncut.

Ask now if you want the save, otherwise I will prepare items for adventurer mode.

unfortunately, I found out far too late to train a decent armoursmith.

however, you can download it just to watch the 60+ goblin siege die horribly.

or smith some adamantium

Well, are we going to keep going with this fortress or are we going to take a new one?

Just to let you know, those bones covered walls for almost the entire game. Then I dug it out into a sealed chamber. And fresh tentacle demons popped out, only for our legendary wrestling squad... well they're dead now.

someone has to take up a fortress based torch, or we could just make a new thread ignoring this one.

feel free to watch nearly 70 goblins rush onto the weapon traps and die though.

also, adamantine count is 305, looking to hit 320 before excavation is done.
adamantine coin amunition anyone?

So, I hear the consensus is that we should start a new fort?
All against say "Nay", all in favor stick your hands in a blender (or say "Yay", you know, whichever).

May I ask why the "Players needed" text in the title is on fire?

Also, if a new fort is made I'd like a spot.

Don't think of it as being besieged by thralls/husks, think of it as having your own personal moat of life hating mutilated menaces

Now wall yourself in quickly

Fine fine, new fort. I'll start on Monday I guess, signups here. I'll make a new thread about it once I get home. Compulsory socialization with relatives tomorrow -.-
