Get fun Salabasama, after New Year we will be able to get that mess fix up (I talk about order of turn). Don't get my pc ready now, probably tomorrow, so take the time you want.

This place i quit a mess, the economy is active, the army is disorganized, you have some work ^^

sir labreck, how you manage to mangle English so much yet still manage to keep your posts comprehensible is beyond me. Well done.

That tunnel that was designated was me trying to fix the well, which I had blown up.

The fortress is slowing, holyday time, but anyways... We aren't dying, are we?

No!  Sorry!  I'm diseased and keep sleeping through the day.  I'll get on it fully tomorrow.  Currently was waiting for the seiging dwarves to make a move.  How long are they gonna just wait out there?

Oh, I think I get it now.

Still, it doesn't look like that setup will provide enough water for the whole fortress.  I'm gonna use the river!

Scout:"Sir, a group of dwarven seigers mounted on horsies have been spotted to the north.
Me:"*spits hot coffee in scout's face in suprise*  Oh Lweokeo, dwarves on horses!  I didn't even know they did that!  Uh, uh, what do we do when there's a seige?"
Scout:"It's all up to you sir."
Me:"Uh, shoot dragon stuff at them?  Put markscats in those fortification things?  What do the catapults do?"

The dwarves sent in one unit to scope us out.  Luckily, I haad the markscats above the intrance.  They didn't hit him a single time, but someone managed to shoot his horse's throat right out.  I actually felt sort of bad for the evil dwarf horse as his master rode him away from us with his ragged, destroyed neck, until he fell forward dead, at which point the dwarf kept right on running.  Maybe I can do this...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Huzzah!  What a conveniently placed catapult!  I take great pleasure in watching the dwarves fly from their horses.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Oh hell, he's scared of a horse...



Oh no, I got a guy killed!  They're gonna hate me!  I'll... uh... say something about the cost of freedom.



What the?!  Why is Rance running through the rain of dwarven arrows?! No job...  Is it just his thirst for blood?

Well... he's dead now.

And the baron consort just altered the prices of goods.  I told someone to tell her I'm not listening right now.  I'm starting to get why everybody hates us noble folk.

Well, at least the dwarves are running off.  And, with acceptable loss of life!

Also, I just noticed, there's a stray windmill up near the refuse chimneys.  What's that, an artifact of a previous project?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Good night, sweet prince.  (Mrssaoe is carrying Rance to his tomb)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Quit bitching, noble.


I recall once basing an entire fort's water supply on a single pond with a dead dwarf in it.

I just realized, after adding the new body parts to the other races, that I have an entire squad of dwarves with a shield in each hand and swinging their axes with their penises. There's nightmare fuel for those goblins, in more ways than one.

Me being embarrased by having a tantrum spiral take the population down to 29 happened.  I'll just hurry up and finish.

Haha, good thing I walled him in, huh?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Erk... cats are going crazy... this isn't going well... at least anyone going crazy is going berzerk!  Oh wait...

Well, hopefully once I'm out of here, the well will be fixed again, and then I can be remembered for that, rather than my awful mismanagement of life.

Oops, that's the problem with bridges...


Sorry, melancholy cat.  Make way for progress.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Also, how odd, there's a cat inside of a fortification...
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I think he tried to jump off the top of the pillbox to kill himself, but since there is no floor on top of a fortification, he got inside of it.

Hrm, someone's been targeting nobles.  There's only the baron consort left.  Everyone else besides the mayor and broker were killed only moments ago.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Early Spring, just realized I should put dates...

Well, tantrum spiral over.  We're fairly steady at 31ish cats.  I've started building a tower.  Hopefully the sight of a mighty construction such as this will convince potential migrants that we aren't really so bad as they've heard.

River hasn't thawed, though...  for some reason the previous overseer's fancy magma heater is only melting half of the river.

Oh, update.  30 cats.  Sigh, 29.

Mid-Spring

Elves came today, to trade.  Tried to get some trading done, hoping they might have some drinks, or maybe a neat animal or two.  Unfortunately, no one seems to want to talk to them.  The assigned broker ran after the mayor, who was hauing goods to the depot, requesting a meeting, despite being in an estatic mood.  The newly assigned broker decided to start hauling items to shops, despite being told not to take any hauling labors whatsoever, and also despite spending most of this time hauling items right through the trade depot.  They left without any trade ocurring.  (Well, no proffit means they're more likely to bring some bears and stuff next year, right?)

The new nobles are here.  Oh, and the armorer is gonna make something nice.  I'll see if I can get these guys some proper rooms this time...


Late Spring

Huzzah!  Circledrives!
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Noble rooms coming along well.  These were some ugly, badly placed rooms I put down as soon as I came, and then abandoned during the bleak times.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Also, I met a girl recently.  She doesn't talk much, but she purrs so sweetly while I do cat stuff to her.

Oh god, already?!  I'm not ready to be a father.

scout:"Sir, that is a normal cat."
me:"Whu-what?  A normal... Oh, oh god, what have I done?!  I-I've got to get out of here!"

*Salabasama the cat runs off over the horizon*

I got done eventually.  Thanks for not getting mad.

Yeh, it got down to the stability point, the last melancholy dwarf died, I think, so things still work.  Until the next seige, that is...

Frogwarrior doesn't seem to have been active lately, though.  Profile says December21.

I guess whoever wants it can take it. I don't have time. I'm supposed to be writing a paper based on two books I haven't read yet.

Well the people that didn't have a turn yet are:
100killer9
sir labrek
skaltum
Hortun

How about we do it like this, since likely every one of them will not have time, the first person who looks like he could get his turn done in the next 3 to 2 weeks simply posts here and gets the turn.
:P

I'll pm the 4 of them

I'm not even sure if they're paying attention anymore.  Worst comes to worst, one of the two fo you could take it next again.
