Which gate do you mean?

The south gate? Check the diamond-shaped lever cluster in NW hill, overfortress.
If you mean some of the gates along the caravan path, check the control room near the depot. (I didn't have time to connect the first gate though, I hope Barbarossa did?)

the save

before you start screaming let me explain what happened


I decided the fort needed a over complicated defense system (OCDS in short)
when my year started i almost immediately got a bunch of immigrants who were all slaughtered together with a few of the military dwarfs.
 When they finally left I designed the OCDS. Construction went well and almost nobody was killed. When the OCDS was almost finished, there was an orc siege.
Luckily all of the outside work was already finished and so the final doors were placed and connected. The first time I got 3 orcs.
They all drowned and it didn’t take long to reset the system. The second time around I got about  10 orcs.
When I left to check other things there were a few messages about dwarfs cancelling because of orcs.
So I checked them and well… I’ll let the picture speak for itself.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
about 20 of the 50 dwarves were killed or injured
1 of the orc bodies blocked the door so when i used the trap again all the orcs were just washed into the reservoir where they could easily get out

i suggest we revert back to barbarossa's save because a tantrum spiral seems inevitable

Or... it could be Ark's turn! Can I do another turn on the 27th or later?

This is why we use floodgates, not doors.

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

All in favor of passing over iluogo's turn with nary a glance? Aye? Aye.

floodgates are also blocked by bodies.
still i guess this was a kind of learning moment to always put grates or bars to prevent this from happening  :-\
