"In other news on Uncle Urist raised from the dead and gave me two gold bars.  Should be enough to trade for some basic stuff come the fall caravan.  Yeah, it'll be good to get away from the old Mountainhome though.  A chance to start fresh where anyone can be a success, TO SECOND CHANCES." I say offering Lilast a waterskin full of Dwarven Wine as I drink one of my own.

Nirur you should add a route to the grassy areas so we can anger the elves as fast as possible.

I want exotic war animals first. I might be able to mount a small ballista on a grizzly bear.

After much deliberation, my vote goes to the brain slug.

As for fortress design, I would tend to think just making it very tall would be best for luring attacks. It's not like word isn't going to get out anyway, and we're probably more concerned with tackling large, professional sieges than trying to catch every raiding party and outlaw band that could possibly swing by.

Oh and wealth. Just gimme the materials I need to create vast riches for myself, and I guarantee you things will become interested in our vaults.

A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

... why is the kitten even a choice?  I highly protest against the kitten being a legitimate choice as a dwarf would never have a lower animal leading them.

... if we elect that cat, I'm hoofing it back to the mountain home with the guards that guard us on the way there.

Alright, but I don't think you'll be able to open a tavern back home, especially not if the Duke finds out about you.

Besides, the only thing worse than giving up on your dream is returning on mercenary guard duty to discover some wussy artisan stole it from you. Opening a tavern is a damned fine idea.

Not if a damned cat is leading us.  How are we going to negotiate trade with a damned CAT as our leader.  Actually no, I'm just going to murder the cat if he gets elected and turn his bones into figurines of Hipobis Giltgold.
