Haha, like that's gonna happen.
Signing you up anyway.


EDIT:
Oh and Crash, thanks for uploading that. I guess my U is pretty draconian about uploads.
And hey, if I have a choice between a crazy megaproject and preparing a stable fortress, what do you think I'll choose?
The food's stable enough, if you don't count the little wine mishap (Ran out of booze because it was all used for cooking) and the fortress is impenetrable. Unless you pull the levers that is. Or the planets align. Or quantum resonance. Everyone has a place to crash, and the dining room is smoothed out. The orcs are waiting outside.
What could go wrong?

EDIT EDIT:
Added some POIs.

EDIT EDIT EDIT:
I hope I at least get a state funeral, Barbarossa.
There better be a fucking funeral.

EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT:
I take back the mean stuff I said about my ISP. It was bugging because they were updating the network. They brought the campus internet to the 90's. Dynamic IP's and all that. I guess they can be forgiven for that.
Also, if you're wondering why I'm hanging around the forums at work... Hell, it beats working.

Dude, you don't even have to kill everyone.  The orcs will do that by themselves.

That's the beauty of it, I can concentrate on more...important things, like making the rest of their short pitiful lives as miserable as possible.  ;D

Well, so far, one miner has died from a cave in, a wounded person died of thirst, the fisherdwarf trapped outside went berserk, I'm building a tower to shoot at the orcs from on the northeastern hill, and I'm trying to get a secret path to the water pool going.

PS: Trying to cage the berserk dwarf, so that I can stick him in a pit and worship him as the godking of gearspark.

In others words business as usual and nothing out of the ordinary going on?

Edit: You found the underground water pool? Sweet!

@Spoon: No, the pond in a valley guarded by orcs.

@Nahkh: I'm sorry, I can't leave private "Ryan" Fisher die to the orcs! I have to go save him! If I'm not done within 100 minutes of this post, go on without me.

Took a bit longer, just gotta save after moving Ryan's cage.

PS: We have ~ ten dwarves left after the all out charge that allowed us access to the water we need for our wounded, and to rescue the godking.

Here ya go. "Ryan" crawled back in, bleeding all over, semiconscious, wounded, and starving. That puts him on even footing with ~half the dwarves left alive after the brutal charge that left every orc dead, as well as 20 or more of our own.

It'll be just like embark, only with less useful dwarves, slightly less useful equipment (You'll have to go dig through the corpses for the picks), a couple less dwarves, and healthcare. Also, you have a fort with 2 holes in the walls. On the north, I'm not sure if I put a door in, and on the west I couldn't find the lever drawbridge, so I dug around and put in a door. A melancholy dwarf is moping in the west drawbridge pit, Ryan the Berserk (Our Godking) is crawling around on the northwest hill, and the rest are sitting around bleeding or making coffins for the bottom layer of the refurbished bedroom complex. Also, a legendary dining room has been started.

Go.

PS: Attempt to catch Ryan (he's a fast little berserk one!) and place him in a throne room with plenty of food and booze.

PPS: Good first day, amiright?

EDIT: I bet you're all wondering how I possibly lost that many dwarves. WELL. I got 28 dwarves put into the squad "The Terrible Tools", headed by Barbarossa the Wise Guy. A miner dug us out of the fortress, and we charged the orcs headlong. half a dozen of the new recruits died instantly in the crossfire from the orcs, including Barbarossa. The melee was fierce. The champion orc wrestler sent with the siege was repeatedly throwing waves of recruits into cliffs, but was eventually mobbed down. The woodcutter (The only one with a weapon, besides the miners and their picks) was losing a limb for every archer orc that he slew (five). A team of wrestlers who had skilled up during the fight finished off the archer orcs and closed in on the wrestlers. limbs flew, and dwarves were mortally injured. one went insane and threw himself into a pit in a fit of melancholy. Several others went berserk in the middle of the battlefield, rending dwarf and orc alike. (mostly orcs left by that time, but they beat the hell out of them) Finally it was down to Zuglar the Wrestler and some Orc.

Zuglar, overexerted and fading in and out of consciousness, realized that the orc was in the same situation. He flailed at the orc's hips, and bruised them. Somehow, the wounds disappeared almost instantly. Both were unconscious then. Suddenly, Zuglar woke up and poked out both of the wrestler's eyes. They were both awake. The orc ran in circles, flailing and (probably) cursing. Zuglar caught up and apparently ripped the feet off of the orc while tripping him. They were both unconscious. Rovod the Gem Cutter ran out of the fortress and ripped the orc apart. The siege had ended with only 22 deaths.

PPPS:Did I mention that the dwarves were temporarily on [SPEED:0] during the assault on the orcs, and STILL were mangled horribly?
