Here it is. Unfortunately I had to gen a new world due to some weird thing where I couldn't abandon the fort.

I've got most of a layer dug out beneath the creepy elf castle, but we've a long way to go. 100+ layers and into magma is the best option. I thought it was a town, but it turned out to be an old goblin castle run by ELVES. I've got a tower started on top of the main fort area to send the stone from the quarry to. Using the three hundred metric shittons of rock we'll get from under the keep, we can make enough megaprojects to make Armok jump for joy.

I think I'll grab the 24th if it's not taken. I sure hope we get a better system of cleaning in the next update. 7 pages of blood and pus on a single tile REALLY needs to be cleaned up, even if it's outside.

what sort of a stupid dwarf trick? I was thinking of lining the halls and every square of passable tiles with bridges all connected to one lever, and at the start and end of each season/year it will be pulled.

Or, a massive bridge set up intended to launch a dwarf into a nearby dwarf-made magma pool.
Even better, make a few dozen 1 tile pools(like semi-checkered) around the bridge and see if the dwarfs can be immortalized.

I'll be playing, but my turn may be unusable.

So........That means there may be potential for me to decide what the megaproject is........

Srsly though, I hope it does work Shonus, with all the save reverts I don't think we actually got much in game time set in stone.

The dwarf trick is to collapse the tower into the magma ocean.

Awesomeness, I'm curious about how cave ins work with semi-molten rock.

Sorry, but I'm too incoherent at the moment to play.

Does anybody mind if I start early AND take my normal turn?

Could I get the 25th, then?

Surprisepalace! Overseers wanted!
But they never would have given up either. And compared to sitting around in this prison for the rest of my life? Losing is fun.

Ok, I see what you were going with the digging under the elves. I think dwarf made lava lake is the way to go, i don't think digging that many levels would be wise with caverns.

I will dig through and try to hit the magma sea, but when i hit caverns i'll block off the lvel and prolly one above and try to keep the passage and pump system to go around the caverns, I don't want to have invincible beasts to worry about.

First thing first tho, need to make sure booze is available, there was none when i started, got migrants will fix that as well as quarters and the drawbridge defense.

It will be up to me to set up the foundation for the magma tribute, and I will do my best.

Ok, just got a mountain home trade caravan. I'm going to wall them in a depot. Will update on how that turns out......

Haha! Success, I almost wasn't able to catch them inside in time but now there is a berserk horse in there. Hopefully they brought picks......
