I'll reupload the map as Vanilla... my bad on that (I was trying to do it all quick-like).

[Glacial Eidolon]

There might be UG rivers and pools, but the chances of magma are zero to none with all that dolomite. Also, I see some kind of rat-type thing in the mountains, but with the Mayday tileset (which I've never used) I find it hard to discern what the heck they are.

Anyone more versed in additional graphics want to help me out with this?

we won't need the two steel hatchets or anvil due to lack of trees.

my vote- 400 wood logs,  100 charcoal

[Martin]

7 proficient woodcutters and 3 anvils!

[Albedo]

Oh, c'mon!  There are some trees... 7 fish cleaners, ftw!!! 

[Vieto]

7 strand extractors, and spend the rest on cats!

Make it skeletal cats and I'm in.

The embark site doesn't look that bad. For a survival challenge I was expecting more of a three level salty aquifer on a terrifying scorching desert.

Here I suspect we will have some hidden map features to make things more interesting. Like a GCS, bottomless pit or some HFS.

Will everyone take a pledge to not use Reveal???

[Keita]

7 soap makers, one of every animal and the rest goes on crossbows with no ammo.

I tried this on haunted forest, couldn't last the year but it was 'fun'

No. Yes, of course!

[Slogo]

I'm excited now, this looks like my type of map layout. I'm a sucker for the cliff face type maps.

Absolutely.

On the soul of every dwarf that's ever died in my fortresses.

(Nev, you a funny man!)

Awwwwwwww, screw it. Sign me up, on a tentative basis. I might not be able to complete the challenge, but at the very least I can give it a try.

About the map: If there's not [redacted] somewhere on that map, then I'm a monkey's uncle.

Pwahaha! Real DF Masters don't even use exploratory mining to find ores and gems and hidden features! They instinctively know exactly where everything is, and they send their miners on the shortest path to exploit the features, nay, even plan megaprojects in their path to take advantage of them! For that it was it means to be a Dwarf Fortress Master!
