One, check the booze stock. If low, forge immediately metal barrel and put on the still, we don't have any log, so no wooden barrel.

If injured dwarf die of thirst, because lake of water, decosntruct every single bed.

Seek out the damned aquifer, do not raise the bridge and start planning something that would do as defencive measure (trap are not defencive measure IMO, too much foes have trapavoid. A 3 wide corridor wit balista at an end, on the side place where marskdwarf could shoot, behind some fortification, behind a channel, and later on, some more surprise of your own could do the trick.

[PsyberianHusky]

alright, well I'm gonna load up the save and try again,

[PsyberianHusky]

They died again, god damn it

They died again, god damn it

Oh! Maybe I forgot to change "dwarves may go outside" switch on when I saved,
what was it? 'O' and 'I'? Can't motorically remember the shortcut.
or maybe it was O+R.

 although it is an autosave so my normal mental processes didn't automatically do that thing. If you read my post you noticed that I didn't allow dwarves to go outside AFTER I closed up the fort, they treat the farm cave as outside because there are tunnels that lead outside but cannot be accessed by the siegers from above because they're "dug deep" :S

The dwarves keep rushing into the cave but stop at its entrance because they think they're doing something they shouldn't do and that fucks up their normal routines.

I'm so sorry, I posted the save in such a hurry I didn't pay attention to all the "appropriate" procedures.

Two kinds of enemies have trapavoid, Chaos Dwarves and Orcs. Neither are an immediate concern, as the Orc have been changed to act like normal goblins, and chaos dwarves tend to ambush much earlier then they atteck, so there will be warning. Cage traps are a viable defensive measure, although limited. How the stockpiles are arranged I don't know. Originally, booze production and storage was supposed to be contained just north of the dining room, but labreck changed a lot of things.

[PsyberianHusky]

Theirs still a siege outside, i'm sorry guys but I forfeit, i'm a bit out of my league

[sir labreck]

Using trap have some, bad effect, giving self confidence of a defence, any basic trap can be overrun by a bunch of thing, a good defence can hold off quit anything.

For changing stuff, the only thing I can say, no dwarf would make any booze because they don't have barrel. Metal barrel have to be done.

[Lord Shonus]

I'll take over for a few hours, see if I can't bring this mess into some semblance of order.

[Lord Shonus]

The barrel shortage was caused by the carelessness of whoever mucked up the stockpiles. As I prophecised, messing with the stockpiles nearly killed the fort. Once I put them back the way they were, everything starting running smoothly.

[sir labreck]

Strange, I know our fort is quit, on a difficult position, but if messing so little with stockpile kill the fort, that mean that your setting have to be review. just don't allow barrel for food and let an stok pile of booze who is the only to have the right to use barrel. Happy moment in fact, SG hit again ^^

Ha yes, if you don't intend to keep it until the change hour, I'll also get an hand, setting out the digging for a barrack, a defencive corridor, etc. And overview his digging. In one or two hour I can put it, even faster in fact. My dwarf his style alive, is he?

[Lord Shonus]

When the massive new stockpile was designated, every barrel in the fort went there, not to mention the complete lack of specialisation caused a massive hauling problem. Destroying it, and restoring the settings for the other stockpiles, fixed the problem.

[sir labreck]

Great ^^ Now, the aquifer await us :p If you don't keep the save, I'll find that damned aquifer and do as I state before.

[Lord Shonus]

I'm going to play with it until Calrissain shows up.

[sir labreck]

Okay, too bad for me, try finding the aquifer, you know what you do. And try no to mess up with the 3 layer directly below the surface, or keep it clean on a big surface. I'll try to grab it on a hold between two player and put my plan on work :p

You probably don't have see the question (you have posted when I have edit), did my dwarf his alive, I think so ^^
