Good job. Now I'm off to bed.

Downloading now.

Dare I ask how is it going?

[Demonic Spoon]

Not too bad, though half the military went insane and committed suicide, and two fluing wyverns of the ilk that has plagued the fortress since it's founding appeared. Made a slight mistake in the building of the magma cannon, delaying it's completetion, also, I didn't realize you were the one that invented the magma cannon nahkh, kudos to you.

[nahkh]

Well I can't take full credit for the magma cannon. I think me and this other guy invented it around the same time independent of each other.
Although I think I'm the first to actually make such a thing. Also, mine handles CONSIDERABLY more volume than our flimsy little pipe.

[Demonic Spoon]

Well that's fucking great, no sooner does the one siege lift than the next one sets, but not for much longer, oh no, not much longer.

[ToonyMan]

DeathQuest had an instant siege before, let me find it....

Here.

[Demonic Spoon]

I've been contantly sieged for three fucking seasons now!! I'm worried I won't be able to finish the magma cannon in time. Also, do you change your avatar daily or something? And you read Godot?

[ToonyMan]

It goes with my mood.

Magma cannon is nearly complete, just need to build two more pumps, the magma pipe has been enlarged. Walled up the fortifications as per nahks's request and probably did a few more things I'm forgetting about.

Goodnight everyone

[ToonyMan]

Three more days for me.  I almost got this fort down, this will help in my endeavors.

Story:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The journal of Demonic Spoon the III, late king of The Syrup of Wondering.

Winter:

I have decided to once again take control fo this miserable excuse for a fortress, forging it into a mighty capital of dwarven sanity and order. The first order of business is getting some of those items that are lying around outside before another siege sets in. And having seen the magma defences in action I have decided to redesign them to both improve the rate of magma flow and the amount of magma that can be unleashed. As such I ordered the magma pipe to be enlarged and began expansion and changes on the magma cannon. Realizing however that even with the enlargements we were not utilizing the full force of the magma pipe I set up blueprints for a series of pumps from lower down in the fortress to add to the magma cannon, however I fear that this will not be completed before I become tired of the horrible work ethic and sheer laziness of these dwarves.

Spring:

Work progresses steadily though rather too slow for my liking. A elven caravan arrived, however, knowing them for the evil scumbags that they are we knew they were actually forward scouts for the forces of darkness and quickly ordered everyone inside, shutting the entrances in their faces so to speak. And sure enough shortly after their arrival a orc siege arrived, leaving the elves unharmed and closing in on our now sealed entrances. We threw taunts at them from atop the balconies and some bolts as well, but for some reason our military is very lazy, just like the rest of the damned fortrress. Ignoring tyhe warning scribbled on the maps of the region I decided to mine out some more adamantine, with no consequences.

Summer:

No sooner did the one sieging force of orcs leave than did the next one arrive, perhaps they are trying to wear us down? If so they will find that to be a hard task indeed, we have enough supplies to last us for many years to come and plenty of seeds should our food stocks run out. Speaking of food, what do the orcs eat during the few months that they contantly sit before our bridges? Everyone reports they have never seen them eat, perhaps with that green skin they make as plants do? Also, a combination of sun, smoke and miasma has cuased five of our military dwarves to go insane and commit suicide one after the other, good riddance I say. All of them jumped into the magma of course. It seems to be the accepted form of killing yourself around here. Speaking of death it would appear that two wyverns appeared sometime over the course of the last two months. So far they've not done much execpt for killing another useless champion and making a minor nuisance of themselves by scaring the civilians. Work continues on the magma cannon. Also, our miners appear to be spineless dogs who will take any excuse to stop working. They keep complaining about how hot the stone is they're mining through and refuse to continue digging it out until I'vve made new orders to that effect.

Autumn:

The magma cannon is nearly complete, only a last few walls and pumps have to be intalled. We seems to have incurred the wrath of the magma pipe, by changing it's shape to suit our own purposes, it has taken the sacrifice of 10 miners to appease it's wrath. Tht said the pipe enlargement is just about complete. One of the wyverns seem to have mysteriously dissapeared and we are being sieged by a new orc siege force. These sieges are becoming rather monotonous.

Winter:

Magma cannon is just about complete, just a couple more pumps that need to be installed. The magma pipe has been successfully enlarged. The siege has finally lifted and with no new orcs in sight some migrants hesistantly made the journey here, opening the gates we welcomed the new slaves with open arms. That said I'm growing weary of these idiotic dwarves and will retire to my little home in the hill, leaving them at the mercies of one of their own.

[nahkh]

Good thing you're ofrgin it into something great. Too bad they ignored tyhe warning.

Looks like the current player is absent, then. Dibs on his turn if he doesn't show up.



Also, this is probably the only fortress to refer to champions as "useless".

[Demonic Spoon]

If he doesn't show up could I maybe just complete the magma cannon and then you could play? And it says he was active today. And fixed that typo 

[Kamrusepas]

Downloaded and already playing, nothing really has happened apart from a 2 Sieges and the miners  defacing a few things.

FPS wise its bad takes forever to do anything.
