So, I got bored in my current fort, and had nothing better to do.
I decided to begin building a dwarven city.
Putting all that stone to good use ^_^
I have already been playing this fort (Dwarf fort
) for a few days, so I have a population of 19.
If any of you guys want a dwarf, I've got this list:
All the dwarfs with profession "O" are legendary miners and skilled masons.
Worker "number_here" are useless migrants that will be banned to the second fort.
People with "Resident profession" are worthy to be a resident of the city, so they will live in it. Proffesison name hints at what they are skilled in/will do for their labor.
and if any of you want to claim one of the few animals, just say so.
It's only mid-autumn, and part of the city is up.
There is no running water yet.
I hope to get some screenshots up tomorrow morning of the city in its current state.
Anyway, here is a little story about it.
Tiristthad, started out as nothing.
The dwarves had decided to turn a vast, white sand desert, into a bustling dwarven metropolis.
TO accomplish this, they needed a lot of hard work, booze, and [SPEED:0].
So in early spring, 7 miner/masons arrived and began to dig into the ground.
Upon reaching microline, they brought it up to the surface, and Began building a tower out of pure microline.
Unfortunately, they ran out, so they Decided to pause construction of the tower and begin the city.
First, they layed down several buildings.
Second, they channeled out all the sand and build supports out of rock underneath the buildings. These are now the sewers.
Third, they built roofs for these few buildings.
And fourth, they channeled out the main roads and built a nice road.
Seeing that that was all done, these 7 dwarfs decided to dig down into the northern soil and find the aquifier that should be there.
After several days of digging, they found nothing.
So, they turned back to the beginnings of a city, and decided to build a second, smaller tower, that houses the entrance to whatever lies deep underground.
After much digging, they broke into the caverns. And guess what they saw; Water!
Preparations to build the pump stack that would bring water to the city began...
