I won't reclaim once!  AHAH.

You won't need to, I'm giving this fortress a major makeover.

[Tarquinius]

I'm starting to wonder how many times the fortress will be in a state of near-death before my turn begins.

[Heron TSG]

Plant immediately. (oh wait, I already did!)

kill the GCS. (oh wait...)

All you need to do is get an airlock-style trade depot and we're set! We already have magma forges and blackmetal!

PS: How did they all go insane? several of them were used to tragedy and nearing a state of not-caring!

[Demonic Spoon]

Don't know, they started going insane shortly after my turn began. And the the dwarven carvan took care of the GCS that were spawned during my reclaim.

And before you guys say anything, I tried 3 times, it's impossible to keep enough dwarves sane, they all die eventualy, reclaim is neccesary.

Something is severely wrong with that pre-made DD download. I started it up, and the screen just started flashing between every frame that had been on screen so far all at once. It was seizure-giving, with all the flashes.

[Demonic Spoon]

Try changing the print setting in init, I had the same problem.

Overview:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I've basically made an entire new fortress which is hopefully much more sufficient. Their is now only one high security entrance which can be controlled with three levers in the statue garden. Add traps.

I have sucsessfully traded wth the elves, givng them a very high profit margin, hopefully they will bring us some much needed wood next year.

Summer has just come so be ready to trade with the humans and request lots of wood, bags and barrels.

I have not managed to find the underground water source so be sure not to let anyone get injured.

The only deaths after reclaim was a fey glassmaker on our sandless map.

I have manged to increase our population form 42 to 70 something. We also have a dungeon master.
The mysterious masterwork statue of a unknown maker was retieved from outside and now has it's own statue garden.

We have more than enough trade goods.

The new enlarged magma forges are almost complete, I just held off to smooth out the magma reservoir before filling it.

We know have a much more streamlined food proccessing line, the only thing holding it back is a lack of barrels and bags.

I made a failed silk farm at the chasm, no spiders appeared, take note of this so that you don't make the same mistake.

[nahkh]

What? You traded with the elves? Heretic.

Also, no spiders appeared? Haven't you been paying attention?

Also, PROTIP: there is no water.

Love, Nahkh.

[Demonic Spoon]

What? I thought you said you were searching for an area with an underground water source? Damnit.

And we're so short of certain resources that I was forced to trade with the elves, we need wood damnit!

EDIT: Save added, and no praise for my great achievements? You'd rather have lived in the squallor of a fortress that was Barbarossa's creation?

EDIT 2: I made it early in my turn and a season later there was still no webs, I'm pretty sure the cave spiders didn't appear, at the end of my tunr there was still zilch, nothing.

Next sparkgear: "How Sparkgear got it's groove back V"

[Kamrusepas]

Eh, bad design if you ask me. the bedroom complex isnt really a complex, more of a badly spaced out Corridor. Workshops should be built in 5x5 rooms connected by stairs (to the stockroom) to prevent pathing issues.

[Heron TSG]

You have to admit the huge hollow area is awesome.

[Kamrusepas]

You have to admit the huge hollow area is awesome.

Only if it becomes a massive Dining hall (with statues)!

[Heron TSG]

DO EET!

[Kamrusepas]

DO EET!

Huzzah!

Dont worry, it will become the best Dining room Sparkgear has ever seen. unless toonyman does something to completely screw over our plans!
